Story5 out of 5 stars 2
The Five Hundred, the elite families who rule the Terran Federation and control its political power and its wealth, have grown steadily wealthier and more powerful, thanks to the war against the Terran League. War may be hard on the people who get caught in its path, but it's very good for business in the short term, and the Five Hundred own the shipyards that build the Navy's ships. They own virtually all the industry that produces the weapons and material the war consumes so voraciously... and they've made damn sure someone else does the dying.

I found this to be an excellent listen, it was so exciting that occasionally I had to put it aside just to calm down! I thoroughly enjoyed The Governor(the first book) and this was just as good!! Wow I cannot wait for the third book, though apparently I have too!

Story4 out of 5 stars 386
An AI overseer and a human crew arrive on a distant planet to salvage an ancient UN starship. The overseer is unhappy. The crew, well, they're certainly no A-team. Not even a C-team on the best of days. And worse? Urmahon Beta, the planet, is at the ass-end of nowhere. Everybody expects this to be a long, ugly, and thankless job. Then it all goes disastrously wrong. What they thought was an uninhabited backwater turns out to be anything but empty.

Nathan Fillion was the perfect narrator for this book, the story is so full, and I too miss even Milo. I could listen to this over and over getting more each time!

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

There is a personal price to pay for having aligned with the wrong side in a reckless war. For Aden Jansen it's the need to adopt a new identity while keeping his past hidden. Now he's integrated himself aboard the Zephyr, a merchant ship smuggling critical goods through dangerous space. But danger is imminent on planet Gretia, as well. Under occupation, torn between postwar reformers and loyalists, it's a polestar for civil unrest.

Great second book.
Reviewed: 2021-05-06
I was hesitant about this book, not because I did not think the book itself was going to be amazing but because of the change in narrator. It was a bit different at first, then you just get into the book and it doesn't matter. I was left at the end of the book wanting the third one right away, sigh but I have preordered it for October. I am looking at it like a Halloween gift. The character development is just amazing.

I have read and listened to all of the book! Luke Daniels always makes the book and characters come alive, to the point I have been either laughing out loud or in tears! I love the strike marine books, I really felt nothing could be as good as the Ember War but Richard Fox and Scott Moon rocked this book, I have re-read and re-listened to all of the strike marines books I have no qualms about recommending all of these books!!!
