About this listen

The remnants of the Expeditionary Force stranded on the alien-controlled planet "Paradise" get a chance to prove themselves, in a simple off-world training mission with a ship full of teenage alien cadets. When the mission goes horribly wrong and the survival of everyone on Paradise is at risk, the Merry Band of Pirates may have to come to the rescue. Unless they get killed first....

Each book evolves and the writing improves. This book has a section in the middle on a group of humans that aren't with Skippy which later drives more story and returns back to Bishop and Skippy.

I like the introduction of the wider universe which expands and gets richer with each book. More characters becoming more utilised.

This series gets better with each book
