About this listen

Colonel Joe Bishop made a promise and he's going to keep it; taking the captured alien starship Flying Dutchman back out.

He doesn't agree when the UN decides to send almost 70 elite Special Operations troops, hotshot pilots, and scientists with him; the mission is a fool's errand he doesn't expect to ever return from. At least, this time, the Earth is safe, right?

Not so much.

More of the witty banter between Joe and skippy which made the first book so amusing. This made me laugh out loud at times. A great read, I really can't wait for the next instalment.

Oh, an excellent follow up

This is a good story but it seems to repeat a lot in places, not as good as the first book but I hope the series improves as things go on!!
