Get the Space Hunter War Complete Series Box Set, featuring all six books in the series. Explosive military sci fi action from a pair of bestsellers.

Jack Bennet returns from the war to find the life he left behind has moved on without him. The only option he has to make ends meet lies in a military surplus junkyard starship. What’s a former Combat Search and Rescue soldier to do?

Fix up the ship, hire the cheapest pilot—a notorious drunk—and take the first contract that comes up: collect a bounty on one of the most ruthless killers in the Pirate Worlds, a place crawling with thieves, cutthroats and con artists whose primary language is violence. Jack must abandon his nice guy persona, or exploit it, if he is to survive.

What could possibly go wrong?

Experience this special edition omnibus of an explosive Military Sci-Fi Series from bestseller Rick Partlow, author of Drop Trooper, and debut author Pacey Holden.

Full disclosure: Review copy courtesy of Aethon

I have to admit, I was a bit skeptical of this series at first. I found the name "Space Hunter War" to be a bit cheesy in the 80s/90s sci fi vein. But the series is surprisingly deep, mature, and yes, action-packed. Let's break it down.

Plot: The saga follows the adventures of Jack, a former Search and Rescue officer who is down on his luck at the end of a major inter-species war, and becomes a bounty hunter (hence the name "hunter" in the series). From there (avoiding spoilers) he's roped into progressively more dangerous missions on behalf of a government that's seems unable to cope with the dangers of a post-war society. Events progress through a mix of galaxy-spanning events and VERY unwise/reckless/blindly panicked decisions on Jack's part. While the amount of trouble Jack gets into (and out of) can stretch the borders of disbelief, it still feels logical and compelling, especially as the stakes escalate.

Characters: There are a few major players here and, while I'll be sticking to Jack for the most part in this review, I will say that all of the major characters have depth and no small amount of unhealthy baggage that makes working with each other quite entertaining to watch in a demolition-derby way. Jack is a war vet lots of issues, but that doesn't stop him from kicking all sorts of butt when necessary. He is a little judgmental and it takes him a while to become understanding of his friends' own issues, but he gets there in the end.

My only complaint is that the majority of the villains in the series are pretty one-note. Fanatics, greedy barons, low-life street thugs, etc.

Action: Can't have a military sci-fi without fighting, and ho boy is there a lot of it. Jack is by no means invincible, and he gets his fair share of beatings (more than once a book), but a convenient auto-doc technology is always there to patch him up. It's not necessarily a deus ex machina, since he WAS a SAR officer and it makes sense for that technology to develop within the setting. Plus, it allows the author to set up some truly heart-pounding fights and keep our hero alive for the next one.

Performance: Ryan Kennard Burke is a great performer. He gives Jack the right mix of everyman relatability and lethal bounter hunter gravitas without it coming off as cheesy, and puts enough differences into side character voices so you can easily identify them as their own people with their own lives, hopes, and dreams. Solid!

TLDR: Great series if you're into military sci fi with a lot of emotional maturity.

A saga that will surprise you

I think the author may have gotten mixed up some of the characters from drop trooper and space hunter. It seemed like a lot of the details like the inheritance being taken by his parents and a girlfriend named Anna were very similar

Great action sequences.

Good overall. You blink and the story moves . Had to go back a few times to get the action.

Fast paced

A solid and compelling story that touches on the difficulties of veterans reintegrating into society after returning from war. Decent world building and character building. A little cliché in places mostly involving copious amounts of plot armor for the main character,but a solid story none the less.

Solid story and great narration

Different characters and story, still as enjoyable to listen as Drop Trooper was and is.

Excellent story line from the Drop Troopers Universe

Very well written not overly unbelievable despite... I don't want to give spoilers so I will leave it at that definitely worth the listen.

Engaging

Made myself listen to the end. Premise was good, however main character talked too much.

Too centered on one character

This was a great listen. The story line held up through the entire series and the character development was excellent.

The only drawback was the authors tendency to go off on an ethical and moral soap box from time to time.

Worth the listen.

Excellent story. Being a vet myself, I found it to be relatable to me. Keep up the good work. Bravo Zulu!

Mostly in reality your friends don't always make it. But hey auto-doc for the win.

I can associate with the main character. And can attest to the incompetence of "military intelligence".
