About this listen
The sequel to The Empire's Corps.
Six months ago, Colonel Edward Stalker and his Marines were abandoned on Avalon, left to fend for themselves as the Empire withdrew from the Rim. Since then, Avalon has been isolated from the settled universe... until now.
As a mysterious pirate organisation attempts to take over Avalon, the Marines find themselves struggling against a shadowy figure with dreams of power, while a young civilian is kidnapped and press-ganged into a pirate crew. They're fighting to preserve something of the Empire's order in the wake of its departure, but the pirates appear to have far greater resources and a plan that seems unstoppable.
The Empire is gone. What will take its place?

Well done story thoguh no surprises
There's nothing unusual about the way this story was written, but it's well put together and well done. I like the fact that a number of the main characters find themselves in different situations but with decent resolutions - bear in in that Christopher G Nuttell is happy to kill off characters - won't say if he does or does not in this one.
If there's a downside it's the author's attempt to show the down and dirty side of the pirates - feels a bit painting by numbers, though I like the fact that he doesn't try sex scenes (unlike in the first book in this series).
The narration is very good and works well with this story.

Unexpected
I found his books by chance, but love both the marine and ark royal series. His little bows for those that he must have read before are a welcome smile to fans looking for a good modem day sci-fi writer

love this series
Great plot and characters that you get emotionally invested in.
Each book is amazing as a stand alone story but as a whole the series is epic.

stereotypical military science fiction
I gave this series a shot. I must admit that I enjoyed the first book, but I understood what I was in for after the second one.
the narrator fits the text, with the voice and tones of the disillusioned old veteran
all the characters are depth-less, stereotypical and interchangeable
the overall world is basic, superficial and unbelievable.
at no time are we in any doubt that the heroes will win.
I noticed the influence of Robert A Heinlein in the powered armors and marine mentality, which was the only bit that stood out as being really elaborated in the story, and in turn being the cause of the heroes overwhelming superiority.
one positive point I will give the author, which is why I gave the book two stars, is the non idealistic, honor based warfare ethos the marines live by. They are out to win, to kill as many of the enemy, by any means necessary...
The style is very repetitive, I slugged my way through two books, but just cant face listening the next 7 or 8 in the series...
