About this listen

The best defense....

Starting a war with an enemy 100 times stronger is insane. It’s desperate. And it’s Earth’s only hope.

A massive alien power looms over humanity, claiming Earth as its territory and humanity as its slaves. The Hegemony has already taken over one colony, yoking hundreds of thousands under their brutal rule. Every tactical exercise, every war game, and every simulation gives humanity zero chance in a defensive campaign.

Earth’s only chance to win the coming war - is by striking first.

Good story, narrator wasn't bad but tried to do a British accent which was terrible.
I hope Christopher Nuttals series that heavily feature British characters are narrated by a brit

Wish there were more British narrators

A really enjoyable read, similar to Arc Royal. Worth a credit of anyone's money.

Just a pity that it is not the start of a Trilogy.

Better than Arc Royal?

The plot is close to Ark Royal but the characters are not as engaging and the Narrators almost mono tone delivery was part of the problem form me.

Good but nowhere near as good as Ark Royal as one reviewer had said.

I liked the flow of the story and the pace. Didn’t like some of the stereotypes used to support the story. Still a good tale.

A really enjoyable complete story
