About this listen
A magic wielding astronaut fighting off an alien invasion with his dragon friend? Charlie thought they might actually pull it off... that is, if Lady Luck decided to play nice for a change. Unfortunately, knowing his fortunes, the odds of that were slim to none.
Could a magic wielding astronaut fight off an alien invasion with just his vampire assassin and space dragon friends? Amazingly, Charlie thought they might actually pull it off... that is if Lady Luck decided to play nice for a change. Unfortunately, knowing his fortunes, the odds of that were slim to none.
The aliens were coming, that much was certain. What they could do to stop them, however, remained up in the air. Having joined forces with the mighty AIs overseeing the planet and its defenses, at least their toys had been upgraded accordingly. The magic users now had big guns. But against a magical enemy they couldn’t see coming?
All the weapons in the system would not be of any use. They were screwed. That is, unless they could somehow harness their own magic. That, or perhaps bring to bear something entirely new, spawned not in a distant galaxy, but rather in their own realm.

Star Fighter Charlie picks up where book 4 of the Dragon Mage series left off. Having seen off their enemy, Charlie and his assortment of human, alien and AI friends are looking for a break - but of course events don't go according to plan, and so they are on hand to rise to the occasion.
The title gives a clue that this installment of the series is a full-on space battle almost from start to finish, ranging across many star systems, and also introducing some new characters. It's also nice to spend some narrative time inside the head of the bad guy for a while!
Gary Bennett does a sterling job of guiding the listener through the story as usual. The Dragon Mage series continues to be a fun, easy-going and highly entertaining read.
Action packed space battles - what's not to like?

I would say they a would be better aimed at the young adult market.
I liked the narrator and the books get better through the series.
One negative is that the scenes can jump around a little, and feel that they have been edited down from larger text, e.g. some fights start and instantly end as if a dozen paragraphs have been cut out to shorten the book.
Enjoyable series
