Acerca de esta escucha
An A-list Space Ranger force with a reputation for trouble lands in the middle of a multifaceted war in the second book of this military space opera series.
Capt. Ben Dailey knows his team will always get the job done—no matter what it takes . . . or what rules they have to break. Whenever the Federation is threatened, they're one of the first units to the front lines to save their comrades' skin, salvage important assets, and kick some invader ass. But when Dailey's ship, the USF Murphy, is sent to the edge of the Void to help a planet under attack, what should be a simple rescue-and-recon mission turns out to be a political quagmire with potentially apocalyptic consequences.
It seems the Federation and their otherworldly archnemeses, the Alurians, aren't the only ones fighting for territory. Several shadowy syndicates running mining and shipping operations out in the uncharted regions of the Void are meddling in the perilous interspecies conflict. Now, Dailey and his crew, with the help of a quippy AI from an ancient civilization and a mercenary Alurian just trying to get home, must travel to the other side of the galactic core to uncover the attackers and determine their motivation—before these small-planet skirmishes break into all-out interstellar war.
Blending heart-pounding action, firsthand military know-how, and irresistibly charming characters, Lost Horizons is a brilliant addition to a unique sci-fi series that's guaranteed to thrill fans of Stargate and the Collapsing Empire and Expeditionary Force series.

Historia
Ben Dailey's Viper Company has one motto: Play hard and fight even harder. The crew is comprised of some of the most elite fighters in the Fleet, though occasionally overconfident and, some might say, obnoxious. So when Dailey is handed down a mysterious, high-security mission that's ostensibly a search-and-rescue for his once-upon-a-time academy rival turned brother in arms, he's convinced there's more to the job than meets the eye. Soon, the USF Murphy is on its way to the edge of the Void to track down what happened to Capt. Rick Bearing and the Asher-5.

Historia
When the Ornu came, they took Earth in a single night. Humanity never stood a chance. Now, they force us to crew their ships and fight their wars for them. They hold Earth hostage, and if we refuse to do their bidding, they’ll lay waste to our precious blue marble. Slaughtering the billions who live there. But when Captain Bill Henderson is sent to claim a small moon for his masters, he finds something they never accounted for. An ancient warship – a behemoth abandoned for millennia by a species that reached its peak at the dawn of the universe.

When the over-driven hyperdrive on their mobile shipyard burned out, the Chhrt'ktk't abandoned it in an inhabited system along their path, hoping it would work as a decoy to buy them more time to escape the Khreetan fleet pursuing them. They didn't anticipate how far the pre-spacefaring species they turned over their broken-down maintenance facility to would subvert their plan.
