About this listen

Alone and unafraid. Sometimes you prevent war by hunting down your enemies.

Integrated with a superdreadnought, the artificial intelligence known as Reynolds takes his ship across the universe in search of the elusive Kurtherians. He comes to a revelation. He’s better in the company of living creatures.

He needs a crew. He needs information. And he needs to continue his search and destroy mission.

Needing a crew and getting a crew are two completely different things. Reynolds is out of his element as he tries to reach out and make friends. Through it all, he has his vessel, the superdreadnought, the most powerful warship in the galaxy.

Or so he believes.

This book looked interesting but at first listen I was thinking of returning it as the thought of listening to an AI with multiple personalities did not sit well with me. I gave it a second listen and to my surprise the human characters completely changed my thoughts on this book so much that I have pre ordered book 2. So do not be put off this is developing into a great story line and I greatly look forward to all the following books

A hidden gem

I got quite a bit to say here so I will start with the negative. The story is quite meandering at first glance as the ship goes from thing to thing and there is only a gentle threat connecting them but honestly, I find that quite irrelevant. The only big issue is at the start, it is a bit of a build-up and I almost DNFed it but I am SOOOO glad I didn't!

That is because of the great parts. The characters are absolutely magnificent, they are funny, feel like real people. There is genuine chemistry that you see in friends and a tight crew that is on a mission but does not quite have, yet somewhat tries, to have the air of military around it. There is swearing in the story in a natural way, they don't feel too vulgar nor too formal for what they do and it is all balanced and befitting to each ones personality and history as far as they are revealed in this book.

There are plenty of hilarious moments, setting fitting sarcasm, witting and much else. A great read if you ask me and I'd recommend it time and time again despite its meandering story because that is not that relevant with such a great cast!

And the performance by Phil Thron, absolutely fantastic, greatly done. Could try to make the voices a bit more distinct but he does the job well enough and his execution of all is marvellous. I recommend this to any scifi lover.

Meandering But Great Entertainment

I'll be the first to admit I struggled and wondered what I had done when I started listening to the book. However, it soon picks up and the early chapters are needed once the story explodes in spectacular fashion.

If you get this book please stick with it through the early chapters. It's worth it! Can't wait for the 2nd book to reach the top of my listening list.

A Slow burner which explodes!

If you love sci/fi audiobooks like We Are Legion, We Are Bob and Space-team then you love this story everything you would want from a witty space adventure is here in this audiobook, Phil Thron does a great job of the narration, and I can't wait to read the other book in the series 5 out of 5 book

It's great to have another funny and engaging story read to me by Phil Thron. Superdreadnought is the start of a series that I have a lot of hope for - original, comical and full of action. I love the political plots and character development. My only comment is that some of the crew relationships feel rushed and they are too quick to bond, but that didn't stop my enjoyment of the book overall. Can't wait for more.

Really entertaining space romp
