Summary

Robert Garry, ex-military officer, wants nothing more than to maintain his integrity and his team's safety despite a career change to pirate leader, but a cargo freighter he targets proves to be holding much more than he bargained for.

Will he escape with his own life, let alone the lives of his crew?

He has always shunned the 'folk hero' label but is he in danger of becoming an arch villain in the process?

Marvellous

A great story of epic proportions. A true joy to listen to. Excellent narration and the added sound assests sold me on the story 100 percent. Would reccomend to any Elite fan or even those intrested in epic Sci Fi in general. HUZZAH

Peaky Blinders in Space!

Deep, dark and thrilling. One of the most intense and well written and produced audio books I've listened to ever.

surprised at how much I enjoyed this

Really good story, didn't go the way I expected. the narration was really good too. overall very good.

only gripe was the music in places, it sounds too similar to man of Steel and it was distracting and maybe a bit loud for the audio. otherwise, no complaints.

Not a Very Intriguing Plot

Very average text. It was hard to stay focused on the plot which didn't draw me in enough as an Elite Player!

Strong and compelling

loved it! the story at some points was not logical but the reader's ability to breathe life in the characters was amazing. loved it. for an elite dangerous player this is a must if you want to RP or just like the lore.

Brings Elite to life!

Once you get into the story you'll be hooked. It is paced just right to keep you listening and before you know it you'll be starting the final chapter.

Engaging and Thrilling

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, it's an excellent read and very informative of the lore. The book is well written and it hooks you right in from the very beginning. Out of all the Elite books I have read, this one was the most exciting. The story is very engaging, and has a lot of action and mystery. I did feel some things were a little drawn out near the middle of the book, but it is definitely worth a full read. I actually plan on listening to it a second time to look for parts I may have missed.

What did you like best about this story?

What I loved most about the story is the same thing I hated most about the story.
And that would be the fate of Soontill. I believe Robert Garry made the wrong choice and may have very well endangered us all.

Any additional comments?

If I ever find Robert Garry in the game, I will kill him for his crimes against humanity.

Full Production Quality

These Eilte Dangerous Audiobooks are a must-have for fans of the game (without exception) and Science Fiction. Full production with character. prices and SFX. May be short but the quality makes up for it in spades. Intense deep story and character building. New favorite.

sounds are annoying

sound effects were annoying, especially in the hospital with the beeping of life support machines for 10 to 15 minutes.
