About this listen

Humanity is losing the war. The once-mighty space navies have been crippled, officers and crew have been stretched to the limit and Earth herself has come under heavy attack. The end cannot be long delayed. For Admiral Smith and the crew of HMS Ark Royal, the stakes have never been so high. The one hope is to make contact with alien factions that might oppose the war. But, as Ark Royal sets off on a desperate diplomatic mission, it rapidly becomes clear that there are both human and alien factions that wish to fight the war to the bitter end - and that her previous missions have sown the seeds of success...or total failure.

I reviewed the last story. and moaning about too much of the storyline based on relationships but I see why. this story builds up until an epic space battle that left me feeling emotional and satisfied. I would go as far as saying it was the best story I've listen too. wow!

I was too quick to critise

A good finish to the first arch. However some elements seem to be a little rush near the end. This doesn't detract from the book or story line much at all though.

A nice finish if a little forced.

What can I say, great story, believable characters, good pseudo-science. A wonderful boys own listen in the car. Get it, love it and get the next.

The space movie you just wish they could make.

Lost a performance star on rendition of certain accents. If they can't be done leave them out, no one will worry

Very enjoyable in a traditional way

Loved the series and the trilogy made compelling listening as I spent many a lonely mile travelling to see my children.

Great story
