About this listen

The first dramatized audiobook in the New York Times bestselling Lost Fleet series!

The Alliance has been fighting the Syndics for a century—and losing badly. Now its fleet is crippled and stranded in enemy territory. Their only hope is a man who's emerged from a century-long hibernation to find he has been heroically idealized beyond belief....

Captain John “Black Jack” Geary’s exploits are known to every schoolchild. Revered for his heroic “last stand” in the early days of the war, he was presumed dead. But a century later, Geary miraculously returns and reluctantly takes command of the Alliance Fleet as it faces annihilation by the Syndics.

Appalled by the hero-worship around him, Geary is nevertheless a man who will do his duty. And he knows that bringing the stolen Syndic hypernet key safely home is the Alliance’s one chance to win the war. But to do that, Geary will have to live up to the impossibly heroic “Black Jack” legend....

Adapted from the novel and produced with a full cast of actors, immersive sound effects and cinematic music!

Performed by Marlon Dance-Hooi as Narrator, Gerald Hill as John Geary, Erin Lin as Tanya Desjani and Kymberley Cochrane as Victoria Rione. With additional performances by Zoleka Vundla, Matthew Pauli, Todd Scofield, Yasmin Tuazon, Andrew Quilpa, Jonathan Lee Taylor, Keith Richards, Jameson Hunt, Andrew Mimms, Christopher Williams, Eric Messner, Christopher Walker, Debi Tinsley, Matthew Bassett, Ken Jackson, Vanessa Thurlow, Emlyn McFarland, Nora Achrati, Jonathon Church, Karen Novack, Crystal Judkins, Donald Guzzi, and Bradley Foster Smith.

I must confess to being a great fan of this series.
This dramatised audiobook is just as good, if not better, than the original narration.
I am so looking forward to the next in the series.
Well done to all involved.

Simply Superb

A good dramatisation of the first Lost Fleet book, decent acting and I really liked that they kept the diversity of accents rather then just have US accents.

Pretty good dramatisation!

A well crafted and well performed dramatization of his genre classic. Narration is excellent and the cast is good. I found the audio effects a little underwhelming and some of the music a little over. Overall this was well worth listening too.

Excellent dramatization of a genre classic
