Summary

Throughout the Fourteen Worlds of humanity, no race is as feared and respected as the Dorsai. The ultimate warriors, they are known for their deadly rages, unbreakable honor, and fierce independence. No man rules the Dorsai, but their mastery of the art of war has made them the most valuable mercenaries in the known universe. Donal Graeme is Dorsai, taller and harder than any ordinary man. But he is different as well, with talents that maze even his fellow Dorsai. And once he ventures out into the stars, the future will never be the same....

Great to listen to story I read 40 years ago

Would you consider the audio edition of Dorsai! to be better than the print version?

Can't remember as so long ago, but narration is good

What did you like best about this story?

A persons story - in a futuristic galaxy

What about Stefan Rudnicki’s performance did you like?

Good

If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Dorsai - to me its catching, but perhaps best as a series - so solder ask not is probably more catching

Any additional comments?

I’d forgotten how good these books are!

I first started reading these books in the mid ‘80s. The local newsagent used to buy in books cheap that had printing errors. I bought Dorsai! for a price of a couple of Marathon bars and a bottle of pop.
I was a hard science-fiction fan even then, but I remember being blown away by the quality of writing for something I had bought so cheaply!
I had no idea at the time that I held in my hand a classic of science fiction.
So here I am 30+ years later being thrilled once again by this incredible work of fiction. The character depth, and the story are still as engaging as ever. Timeless.

I was not sure when I started listening that the deep gruff voice of Stefan Rudnicki would sit well with my personal narration preferences, but I have to say that now I have finished this listen, he was the perfect choice for this reading.
Clear, concise, and giving a no-nonsense ‘manly’ telling of war and intrigue in a distant future of the human race.

Gordon R. Dickson - the world is poorer for your loss.
