Story
You think you’re struggling to find your place in the universe? Consider poor old Colin Douglass, a terminally ill insurance agent who awakens from centuries in cryogenic freeze to find Earth is a devastated wasteland. Now, he’s being pursued by a homicidal interstellar tourist board, and calculating insurance dividends is as outdated as making stone axes. Sci-fi-hating technophobe Colin seeks a cure for his illness in this strange new galaxy where toilets talk back, and door handles are a long-forgotten relic.

Story
The Ruhar hit us on Columbus Day. There we were, innocently drifting along the cosmos on our little blue marble, like the Native Americans in 1492. Over the horizon came ships of a technologically advanced, aggressive culture, and BAM! There went the good old days, when humans got killed only by each other. So, Columbus Day. It fits. When the morning sky twinkled again, this time with Kristang starships jumping in to hammer the Ruhar, we thought we were saved.

The post-apocalyptic world isn't that bad. Sure, there are mutants. But, for the people of New Hope, daily life isn't so much a struggle of finding food or medicine as it is trying to find a new shortstop for their kickball team. This makes it difficult for a post-apocalyptic warrior to find work. Thankfully, an army full of killers is making its way to the peaceful town and plans to raze it to the ground. Only a fully trained post-apocalyptic nomadic warrior can stop them.

Story
In the twentieth century Earth sent probes, transmissions and welcoming messages to the stars. Unfortunately, someone noticed. The Galactics arrived with their battle fleet in 2052. Rather than being exterminated under a barrage of hell-burners, Earth joined their vast Empire. Swearing allegiance to our distant alien overlords wasn't the only requirement for survival. We also had to have something of value to trade, something that neighboring planets would pay their hard-earned credits to buy.

Story
Five years ago, the US Space Force became a reality. And while those writing the checks took things very seriously, the other military branches did not. As a result, Space Force was populated by undesirables. My name is Captain Ethan Stone, a decorated member of SEAL Team Six turned Space Force "recruit". Flash forward five years and between tenses. President West is in office. Power has shifted. And Space Force is defunded. With just a handful of us still living on base, we find ourselves being evicted. But before all of us can leave, aliens invade.

A hidden gem
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

Unlikeable characters
I wanted to like this book; it seemed to be the type of book I have read for years and enjoyed. It wasn't. The characters are all unlikeable and humourless and I found myself disengaged from them and not really caring what happened to them. The "wise-cracking" was about as engaging as that which came from the donkey in Shrek. Not going to finish this one; what would be the point

Humorous Sci fi
Really enjoyed this book. Ordered book 2 before I was half way through and thrilled to see there were even more. Reynolds et al were laugh a minute characters and Phil Thron is, as usual, utterly brilliant, he being the reason I opted to listen to this book in the first place. Well worth a listen.

Loved this book
Had read a few reviews saying it was hard to get in to at first, I didn’t find this the case. The story has a good pace interjected with sci fi movie quotes that sci fi geeks like myself will appreciate. Only criticism is that I was not happy when it ended I was hoping it would go on indefinitely.

A Slow burner which explodes!
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.

Like AI stories its ok, but its highly simplistic
These series is an average listen and keeps you wanting more of the ongoing story of an AI and a battleship. It is very simplistic in its outlook however, celebrating death and destruction which does get unsettling as time goes on. The the cartoon characters that accompany the AI rejoyce a little too much in their killing too. the ship battles are ok however, but the middle 3 book do repeat a storyline.

Really entertaining space romp
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.

I was looking forward to this one...what a shame
I like stories about AIs and robots so I was anxious to read this. What a disapointment. First The AI of this ship speaks in such gutter lanquage all of the time, replicates himself to make a whole bridge crew with personalities of 12 year old street kids throughinf f-bombs, plenty of gutter humor and stupid bathroom insults, no cleverness, no real humor or smart interaction with humans. What a waste. I couldnt get though it andam returning this idiocy.

AI inside a Superdreadnought, what could go wrong?
This series is both a stand alone and part of a series. If you haven't read The Kurtherian Gambit Series, I enjoyed it, but it's not required, to understand and enjoy this story. I can't recommend the author or the narrator highly enough. This was a fun, fast paced ride across the universe. I will a warning, if you don't like gratuitous, funny swearing, this books not for you. But if you like fast paced action, good versus evil, Listen to this.

I kept waiting for this to get better. The concept was intriguing but the story was just weak and full of holes. Phil Thron does his best with what he's got and he's got a bad story to work with here. Just... pass.
