About this listen

Now a celebrated war hero, Captain Kat Falcone is back at the helm of HMS Lightning...and up against near-impossible odds. After an ill-timed outburst almost ends her career, Kat is handed command of a deep-strike mission into enemy space. The objective is to gather intelligence and distract the hostile Theocracy while the Commonwealth prepares its counteroffensive.

The chances for success are slim - and for survival even slimmer.

Armed with a ragtag fleet of outdated starships, a few loyal officers, and a skeleton crew of refugees, Kat knows the Royal Navy expects her to fail. But failure almost certainly means death - or worse, as the Theocracy does not treat prisoners kindly. Pitted against the enemy defenses of her old nemesis Admiral Junayd, there is no room for error. And with a spy hidden aboard her ship, Kat will need more than her wits to survive. Can Kat enter the lion's den, strike a blow for the Commonwealth, and escape with her life?

Much like honour harrington and in a good way.
Entertaining and surprising plot development. But on the big scale expected results in the end.

I am hooked

It is quite difficult to write an impartial review without inadvertently giving away the plot. So, I will limit myself to commenting on the narrator.

I find her portrayal of many of the characters, quite irritatingly novice. She doesn't know how to inject emotion appropriately into the sentences of some of the officers. One officer whispers everything - I believe that this is to portray the fact that she is female. Another officer is always shouting - again I think that this is to portray a Marine. Another, has a fearful tone, irrespective of what is being said - portraying a young man. The list goes on. It's not noticeable to begin with but, as the pace quickens, it becomes more noticeable and starts to grate.

Fortunately it doesn't quite spoil the enjoyment of the book. This is part 2 of a 4 part series and continues on fluidly. Very fast paced, quite specious and ending with a couple of sharp intakes of breath and a twee smile.

I’m anxious to progress to book 3 and, thanks to my Kindle Unlimited subscription, I can press onwards immediately. If you're sensitive to diction, listen to a sample of the novel first. The narrator may not bother you, but she started to intrude into my listening experience. Which is a shame as I have 2 more books to get through.

Gasp!

I really like Chris Nuttall's books, and am really enjoying this sequel, but I've had to give up on listening to it, I'm now reading it on my Kindle because the narration is so awful.

Sad to say, Lauren Ezzo just cannot 'do' male voices. Since most of the characters are male it is a bit of a problem. I gritted my teeth through book 1, but this is just painful. I won't be trying a third time, I'm afraid.

Great sequel, appalling narration
