About this listen

War isn't coming. It's already being waged.

While the universe was still young, vambraces were forged, giving their users extraordinary abilities. A brutal war was won through the blood and sacrifice of patriots. Soon, the vambraces faded to legend.

A secret task force. A wormhole portal discovered...

Now, Frank and Marine Space Corps-1 find themselves across the galaxy, where an ancient evil is growing. From exploratory crew to the front of enemy lines, Frank will have to decide whether to play the part of hero or to be the Marine needed to win the war.

Because the victor takes the universe.

The vambraces will be found again. A new order of knights will be chosen. And once again light will do battle with darkness.

Includes a special bonus note from the authors.

I was expecting the typical space scifi formula book and was pleasantly surprised by the story. Great writing which invests the reader in the characters and storyline. Eagerly awaiting the next in the series. 5*!

Surprised!

Okay, first off, if your looking for a serious, scientifically thought out sci-fi opera, look away now.

If your happy with a fun, humerous romp that doesn't take itself too seriously and is full of in jokes and pop culture references, this is for you.

Stargate meets green lantern is an accurate description that draws heavily from both and more besides. The narration is top notch from Scott Aiello (and i highly recommended you check out the forever series if you enjoyed his narration).

A great way to spend a few fun, fast pased, hours.

A not too serious romp

Serious, yet fun. Fast paced yet detailed. I would listen to this book again as it is simply enjoyable and I am looking forward to the next book.

Really refreshingly enjoyable

struggled to finish this.

So many borrowed ideas and themes.

it's sci-fi with fantasy and frosted with frustration.

the whole story is very upbeat and there was never a point with tension that I can remember.

disappointing in general.

voiceover is good as usual for Scott he's in my top 5 (with RC at the top)

Stargate + green lantern =?

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

little bit younger audience, odd choices, not necessarily developed in detail where expecting and moved through certain parts a little fast

not bad, a little cliché

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

The story is more of a mix between Lord of the Rings and Green lantern with small spicing of Starwars "the source". If you are looking for a space novella these are not the droids you are looking for nor is it the KTF feeling of Galaxy's Edge.
If you like medieval knights mixed with tech then this story is for you.

Not realy a tech story

Nothing too special, ok action and characters were a bit shallow. Most likely will not be purchasing the second part (4-6).

Underwhelming

A very good book. Well read, paced great value for time and money. Well done.

so so good. Gateway rocks.

The story is ok , I found alot of ideas from other si fi thrown together in this story. For me the villain was generic, and borrowed from LoR. The Will, which can form into anything..... feels like a poor copy of the green lanterns powers, and very little imagination went into what he could create.
overall it was ok. The narrator was good, will check out his other work. As for this story it has not inspired me to continue this book series.

Ok. alot of borrowed si fi themes.

didn't finish this one, story seemed rushed and doesn't really give much backstory, just kinda thrown into the thick of it. Scott Aiello is great as ever just I'm really not a fan of the story. disappointed as was expecting more depth for the price, thank goodness for the free credit.

The story isn't great...
