The ongoing war between humanity and the Ulat is a battle of attrition that humanity is unfortunately losing. However, humans have the advantage of trans-hyperdrive technology, which allows their climber fleet, under very narrow and strenuous conditions, to pass through space almost undetectable. Passage at Arms tells the intimate, detailed, and harrowing story of a climber crew and its captain during a critical juncture of the war. Cook combines speculative technology with a canny and realistic portrait of men at war and the stresses they face in combat. Passage at Arms is one of the classic novels of military science fiction.

Really interesting story, but consider checking out
The print/eBook if that style of verbal storytelling would throw you.
Get it in print instead

There is only one thing I would change to transform this book from "great" and absolutely a fun read, to an "award winning" book. But it would be a spoiler, so I will let you read it and guess what I am thinking.
This read like the Battle of Midway or the Battle of Britain from WWII. Back and forth, trying new things, sneaking up on the enemy, being surprised, inflicting damage and taking damage.
When I found out it was a book about one battle, I was not sure about it myself, but Audible's fantastic return policy encouraged me to use a credit. I am very glad I did!

good story

The book's focus on "hard science" made it a cumbersome read for me although I suppose some readers might enjoy that. I like a bit of science, but pages and pages of explanation and jargon wore me out.
The book is basically half science and jargon, a quarter exploders the human physic under pressure and the rest is plot and "war is hell" talk.
Not for everyone I suppose.

Often I found myself rewinding to listen to something repeatedly, thinking that I missed a chapter or some paragraph of information, only to realize that the author simply hadn't explained what was going on. It also doesn't help that much of this vague storytelling is done with made up sciencey words and acronyms, also never explained.
I wanted to like it, being a fan of Cook's other books, but it was a slog.
Confusing at times
