Summary
The starship Freedom is just a museum ship...until the aliens attack.
The starship Freedom was once a mighty warship. Today, she's a tourist attraction. The space wars ended long ago. The Freedom is now a flying museum; the tourists love it. The Changing of the Guard, the starfighter aerobatics, the starboard cannon salute...it's the best show in the galaxy.
James King commands the starship Freedom. He hates his job. He was a real soldier once, back when the Freedom was a real warship. He never imagined himself running a tourist trap. Right after Christmas, he plans to retire. Then, on Christmas day, the aliens attack. Horrifying aliens. Creatures of claws, fangs, and endless malice. Within hours, they devastate Earth's military. Millions die. So much for retirement.
The aliens spare the starship Freedom. After all, she's only a tourist attraction. But not to Commander King. He will get his beloved starship battle-ready. He will enter the fight. The Freedom will fly to war again!
Battlestar Galactica meets Starship Troopers in this sci-fi adventure from Daniel Arenson, the USA Today best-selling author of Earthrise.

Good action story
Total enjoyed the book. Characters took a while to get established but a very good fast paced space opera.
Looking forward to book two.

Good story
I really enjoyed the book, the narration was clear, the story intriguing but there was too much repetition about people and place's

Slow to start standard si-fi adventure story
It proved slow and difficult at first to get into but slowly it warmed up and found it a passable adventure story. It will be interesting to continue the series but not as a priority.

Worth a listen
Little bit OTT, but idea is sound basis for the book and possible series.
Narrator should work on his English accents as it makes the ruling class sound like entitled clowns.......then again maybe it is unintentionally appropriate given 2016, 2019 and 2022.

I'm partial to the 2003 reboot of Battlestar Galactica
and this seems to have its plot points taken from the miniseries minus jumps.

I really wanted to like this...
My problems with this book started with the prologue where I was almost drowned with adjectives! The unlikely nature of the only interstellar observation post being manned by a coward and an alcoholic notwithstanding, I decided to try to carry on. The first chapter was ok and I hoped I’d misjudged the book. Then we got to Buckingham Palace... Oh dear! The narrator’s grasp of British accents is truly woeful. His Royal Princess sounds like an extra from Downton Abbey rather than a teenager. The blinged up floating football is a cliche; and as for the cockney pilot.... Dick-Van-Dyke eat your heart out! It bounced me out of the story and I gave up. Such a shame!
