About this listen
The slaughter is on! Across the galaxy, human mercenaries are being ambushed, and an ever-increasing number of companies aren't returning from their contracts. Someone even appears to be plotting the demise of the premier Four Horsemen companies, and disaster for the other three companies has only been averted by the narrowest of margins.
Sansar Enkh, the president of The Golden Horde, knows her company is likely to be next, but has no idea who is behind the attacks, or when they will strike her beloved Horde. Acting on a prophesy from her dying mother, she knows her only chance is to take the company off-world to draw out the phantom enemy.
The Horde is being scouted and an attack is imminent. As the Revelations Cycle draws to a close, will Sansar be able to figure out who is behind the attacks in time to save Earth's mercenary companies from the horrific fate waiting from them? The fourth horseman is in play, and time is running out to save the Earth and everyone on it!

Better than Asbaran, Not as Good as Hussars
The Golden Horde is the 4th book in the Revelations Cycle series, and a part of the Four Horeseman Universe of books
Following up from Winged Hussars wasn't going to be easy, especially as this is a Chris Kennedy outing, not a Mark Wandrey. That said, Horde is significantly better than Asbaran Solutions. Its a 3.5 leaning towards a 4.
The book actually starts a bit dull, the characters (on face value) have no depth, and the Horde just appear to not be an interesting company (and they never really become one). Once it gets going however, the characters start to shine, and make the book worth reading. The overriding plot is also very decent, especially when it hits its stride (it just takes a while to get there)
The only thing jarring part of the book, is how it handles the character of Jones. Jones, is also in Winged Hussars. In that book, he is portrayed as a bit full of himself, but otherwise, there not much negative. Here, he is an utter dick. (Lack of communication between the Wandrey and Kennedy?) Its such a tonal shift for the characters in comparison to the last novel, that its off-putting. Thankfully, this is my only serious criticism.
Give Golden Horde a chance, and stick with it to the end. The ending payoff, especially to finally have all the plot points come together in the series, is worthwhile
I listened to the Audible version of this book. It was the same narrator who performed Winged Hussars, and he did a decent job (even though Jones' sounds Australian in one book, American in the other)
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
