About this listen

A dirty deal was struck. Humanity was allowed to keep 300 rebellious worlds. In return, we declared war on a powerful enemy from beyond the frontier.

A frantic build-up of forces has begun, but the task is hopeless. Seeking allies, Earth's legions are sent to Blood World. A planet on the fringe of known space, where the people only respect masters of combat. Earth's Legions must impress them, but other alien powers have been invited to join the contest. The prize consists of billions of loyal troops—Earth must win.

Fighting and dying and fighting again, the struggle is half-mad—but so is James McGill.

Blood World is the eighth book in the Undying Mercenaries Series.

the story is getting repetitive and at times unbelievable. I still enjoy the concept but not sure how much more

much of the same

I have really enjoyed this series. Some criticisms I read in reviews could be said to be true, but they are trivial. The revival machines are 'alien' technology and criticism that "the idea is silly" is entirely inappropriate. The main character does sometimes rankle with his womanising, but that is his character, and it is consistent throughout the series. In fact it leads to lots of plot twists. The story is fast paced, self consistent, full of twists and turns and entirely enjoyable. Perhaps not the most sophisticated of reads but I do not think that was ever the authors intention. In summary, ignore the criticism. This is a great series although I admit that I am upset I have no more to download. Come on Mr Larson, get those fingers typing and churn out some more please. I really want to know what happens with the Galactics faltering power structures.

A great series, sadly no more for me to listen to.
