Summary

The Hundred Worlds have withstood invasion by the relentless Hok for decades. The human worlds are strong, but the Hok have the resources of a thousand planets behind them, and their fleets attack in endless waves.

The long war has transformed the Hundred Worlds into heavily fortified star systems. Their economies are geared for military output, and they raise specialized soldiers to save our species. Assault Captain Derek Straker is one such man among many. Genetically sculpted to drive a mech-suit as if he wears a second skin, he must find a path to victory. It's a battle in which he'll never admit defeat, but not even Straker knows the dark truth behind this titanic struggle. With Lieutenant Carla Engels piloting, Starship Liberator explores enemy territory in search of answers.

Good story, poor writing

I was so, so disappointed with this. Read lots of other BV Larson but this one is so clearly mostly written by someone else and it’s just not the same. There’s so much technical description you just lose sight of what’s supposed to be going on. Shan’t be buying any more in this series.

Flat and poorly performed

Average story, poorly performed... this book feels like it w as written by a 10 year old with too obvious wordplay and flat characters. The narrator didn't help with unemotional delivery and annoying one size fits all accents.

mediocre

Standard space adventure, that follows the standard formula. There was nothing particularly bad with the book but then again there was nothing particularly good or interesting about it.

really boring

Just couldn't get into this book. Very boring I think BV Larson really needs to learn it's about quality and not quantity and stop turning up ten dozen books a year. a very generic military science fiction nothing compelling in this book whatsoever good book if you've got insomnia and you want to go to sleep.
one of his best books is his first I think it's called Swarm that's a good book and a good series

Good start

Liked this first book in the series very much. However, there were one or two sections which were not so great. Too much technicality in one or two sections which seemed to go on and made for boredom' hence only 4 stars.

Apart from the boring bits, narration was, as always, very good with Mark Boyett and worth the credit.

I did not enjoy this book

Really did not like this. Predictable, dull, littered with cliches and unabashed politicking. I'll be avoiding books by the author in future

give it a go

I looked at the reviews of this from fellow members and I must agree with some of the comments such as ... the lack or character building however this book is got me hooked after the first 3 hours, so just give it a go you might like it.
My only other issue is that all the characters sound like Undying mercenaries characters but I loved those books as well.

Gripping Story

This story really delivered. I'd heard it was good, I'd heard the narrator was very strong, etc., but didn't expect to be glued right from the start. Would highly recommend :)
