Harmon Tomeral wanted nothing more than to go to space. Sent to an orphanage when his parents were killed in a sandstorm, the odds were stacked against him. Despite that, he made it to the academy and graduated in the top 10 percent of his class...only to find out the fleet did what it wanted, regardless of regulations, and he came from the wrong planet. He didn’t give up his dream, though, because where there’s a will, there’s a loophole, and Harmon and his friends found their loophole in the Top Fleet Marine competition - the winner would get 100,000 credits....

Diamond in the rough... very rough
Revisado: 02-23-22
This book, and the reading of it, we're thoroughly middle of the road. KC Johnston is good with accents and can keep things steady. the editing on this leaves something to be desired though, considering the fact that someone went through and edited out every single time KC took a breath, but was unwilling or unable to have and read up some portions with awkward timing or with awkward pronunciation. at times, it felt more like Mr Johnston was coming up with the story on the fly, then at least the constant pauses and lackluster word choice would make some amount of sense.
Clip loves to use the phrase "I'm on a ship of fools" constantly, and it gets very grating very quickly.
the writing feels like a high schooler writing it or someone who's not very experienced with writing anything other than research papers and writing for AP creative writing courses. certainly not a confident fiction writer.
Lastly, the cover art for this book and the others in the series contain ships that are painfully close to copyrighted material for a few different franchises, like Battlestar Galactica and Stargate. I'm unsure how the cover artist wasn't sued for it...

Fifteen years into a 20-year voyage, war veteran Captain Throttle Reyne is looking forward to taking a break from dealing with malfunctions, glitches, and the hassles of monitoring 1,000 colonists in cryo-sleep. But when her colony ship breaks down in the middle of nowhere, Throttle and her crew must leave the colonists behind to search for help. They find a ship that's not only missing a crew...it's clearly not from their star system.

Great reader and author, good story
Revisado: 06-29-21
fun and infuriating story. It falls on some familiar tropes, but elicits strong emotions! The "lesser of two evils bad guy steals your stuff" trope is a little overused in this style of sci-fi, but this is a pretty good example of it being used well. throttle in the crew are very strong well fleshed out characters for the first book in the series, it felt like I knew them from nearly the minute they were introduced!

Both the old and new readers were great, Mark's descriptive reading is way better, but I do miss the original voices.

Jason Burke was a man hiding from himself in a small cabin high in the American Rocky Mountains when his simple, quiet life was shattered one night by what he first assumed was an aviation mishap. But when he investigates the crash, what he finds will yank him out of his self-imposed exile and thrust him into a world he could have never imagined.

Great Start for a good author

It was actually funny, and really strong in terms of science and technology. Really believable how Jason reacts throughout the book. Just wish he'd add some people to the officer manifest!
