About this listen

A lethal orbital defense platform. A squad of green Marines. A silent alien killer. Who dies next?

2441 AD. A quarantine platform in the Rakasa system goes quiet and a squad of freshly minted Marines are sent to investigate. The blood soon flows, but there is one Marine who has the bravery and cunning to take on even the most lethal hidden foe.

Set 125 years before the events on Tranquility that sparked the creation of the Human Legion, The Demons of Kor-Lir is a standalone novella and introduction to the Sleeping Legion series.

Short. Gritty and unexpectedly satisfying. I have not come across this raw kind of military yarn before...looking forward to the next one. The narrator is perfect for this sort of story....

it took me a will to get into the story. But enjoyed it by the end

not bad

I like a nice space combat storey, but this one lacked any real plot interest, relying on jargon instead of plot. It was very linear, the characters where very one dimensional. The narrator was quite good, with his dry performance which matched the story.

I doubt I will bother going forward with the series, but will look out for the narrator.

Weak story poor character development very cliché

An interesting audible story in that in not sure I would have read this if it wasn't for the narration. It's how I'd imagine an American soldier trekking the story of an incursion into a space station using only military jargon. I think I just about managed to follow and look forward to a full book as this was a prequal.

The author needs a lesson in English and the difference between chapters and paragraphs I have come across another author who writes in this manner and I have. Never read another I only read this book because I had read the waking legion and thought this one would be as good. I feel cheated and short changed in this travesty of of a. 30 + chapter book.Stephen

To many chapters

there is so much detail to track, it is difficult to remember who is who, where they are, and what is going on. rather simplistic military sci fi shoot 'em up. could be entertaining if you love this sort of thing. perhaps for the young, new to military sci fi drama...?

too much detail to track..

Utterly forgettable and trivial story. The author lacks storytelling chops. You could find the story in any Marvel-comic. I mean that it is similarly calculatingly clichéd and absolutely predictable throughout.

I think I’ve already forgotten about it and moved on. Maybe this would work as a introduction to mil-scifi/ quasi space opera, or perhaps as adolescent lit (I find ‘young adult fiction’ a very non-descriptive term).

The one saving grace is the narrator who makes the most if awful material.

Consider yourself warned.
