About this listen

The sequel to The Empire's Corps.

Six months ago, Colonel Edward Stalker and his Marines were abandoned on Avalon, left to fend for themselves as the Empire withdrew from the Rim. Since then, Avalon has been isolated from the settled universe... until now.

As a mysterious pirate organisation attempts to take over Avalon, the Marines find themselves struggling against a shadowy figure with dreams of power, while a young civilian is kidnapped and press-ganged into a pirate crew. They're fighting to preserve something of the Empire's order in the wake of its departure, but the pirates appear to have far greater resources and a plan that seems unstoppable.

The Empire is gone. What will take its place?

There's nothing unusual about the way this story was written, but it's well put together and well done. I like the fact that a number of the main characters find themselves in different situations but with decent resolutions - bear in in that Christopher G Nuttell is happy to kill off characters - won't say if he does or does not in this one.

If there's a downside it's the author's attempt to show the down and dirty side of the pirates - feels a bit painting by numbers, though I like the fact that he doesn't try sex scenes (unlike in the first book in this series).

The narration is very good and works well with this story.

Well done story thoguh no surprises

I found his books by chance, but love both the marine and ark royal series. His little bows for those that he must have read before are a welcome smile to fans looking for a good modem day sci-fi writer

Great plot and characters that you get emotionally invested in.

Each book is amazing as a stand alone story but as a whole the series is epic.
