About this listen

Garm trained her whole life as a member of the secretive Quadrad organization. Her planet is famous for its assassins and governmental manipulators. It’s whispered that behind every mysterious death lurks a Quadrad. But when Garm enters the wide galaxy, she finds her prestigious training entirely insufficient.

Most Quadrad are abysmal failures, unable to cope in an advanced technological empire. The Quadrad are nothing but a very clever marketing campaign that has been going on for 20,000 years. But Garm is different. She is determined to be the most successful, most lethal, and richest “agent of change” in history. To that end, she assembles the best spaceship crew she can afford. Unfortunately, she is extremely poor. Her ship is a former pleasure cruise vessel, the Summer Dream Adventure. And her crew is made up of ancient relics, war criminals, incomprehensible aliens, nymphomaniacs, and creatures so dangerous, just being near them can prove fatal. To make matters worse, Garm is personally being hunted by the government, which seeks to forcibly put an end to the Quadrad myth forever.

it may not have Hank in it but it is a great story. seeing the back story for other characters is great I hope there are other books like this.

that was painful. love the author, love hank and garm. this was a chore to endure. I'll have to buy the book and pray this gets re-done with Liam Owen 🙏

why change narrator

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Story is okay, giving background information of Garm. But narration is by far from what Liam Owen managed. If this was a standalone story the narrator would be okay.

Bring Back Liam Owen

the story got good near the end but the story was missing the calm of the other hard luck Hank books.
the tension was not initiate and and the characters lacked much expressive emotions, which is a shame because some parts were really good and exciting but then followed by nothing happening.

took a while to warm up

I know this is set in the HLH Universe, fine, but don’t pass it off as a Hard Luck Hank book when this should be a stand alone.

No Hank!
