About this listen

A brand new series by the author of the best-selling Crimson Worlds saga.

Terrence Compton is one of Earth's greatest admirals, a warrior almost without equal. Alongside his oldest friend and brilliant colleague, Augustus Garret, he and his forces saved Earth from invasion by the robotic legions of the First Imperium's insane computer Regent. There is just one problem. The First Imperium was held back by the disruption of the sole warp gate connecting the two domains...and Compton and 300 of his ships are trapped on the wrong side, surrounded by the Regent's vast fleets and cut off from Earth.

Pursued by their deadly enemy, Compton and his fleet must flee into the darkness of unexplored space, seeking safety...and ultimately a new home. Their journey will take them deep into the heart of the First Imperium, to the silent, windswept worlds where the ancient race that built the Regent once dwelled...and uncover the lost secrets of its disappearance 500,000 years ago.

Amazing author.

I’ve heard of Jay Allan along time ago so I kept getting his audiobooks but I never had the time to listen to any of them because i review new audiobooks for many authors and there are new once always coming out.
Any way I’ve decided to take a break and listen to audiobooks that I chose which was fun but new audiobooks for reviews keep coming in so I’m thinking that every 10th book I’ll listen to one of mine.

About Into the Darkness I got absolutely nothing bad to say, Jay Allan is a great author without a doubt !
And to think that this is the first of a five books series, so much went on in this first one that I can’t even imagine what kind of surprises are waiting for me at the next four, truly a master writer!

Fully recommended.

Stereotypes in Space

Jay Snyder did a decent performance. Occasionally I got confused about who was speaking.

The story is a pretty flat and stereotypical mil-scifi yarn. Lots of high level command stuff with zero sense of humour. Not much worker level appearance other than to salute. Very little character driven story and all interactions are of a military style. Lots and lots of pissing contests and threats to blow up allies ships if they don't follow orders. Haven't the characters heard of speaking to each other?

In fact I wonder whichever side in this war was really the robots.

Slow going. Story similar to J.Camble's Lost Fleet

Story-line very similar - Jack Campble's "Lost Fleet" series - but, not as accurate on details.
