Publisher's summary

The Expeditionary Force saga continues with Breakaway, the eagerly awaited sequel to number-one Audible-ranked and New York Times best-selling Brushfire, from an epic sci-fi writer at the top of his game. Join the millions of listeners who have enjoyed R.C. Bray’s hilarious portrayal of Joe, Skippy, The Merry Band of Pirates, and so many other unforgettable characters.

The Merry Band of Pirates offered the bad guys a ceasefire. We won’t mess with them, if they don’t mess with us. Easy, right?

No.

The aliens chose to do things the hard way. So, the Pirates are racing around the galaxy to clean up the threat to Earth. The infant UN Navy has their own mission with the Alien Legion: Get humanity some allies in the fight. And the Ethics & Compliance Office might have to do something...ethical. Unless they can find a way around it.

same ol same ol

not anything new no surprises. I mean I liked it but it wasn't as exciting as everything before book 10. it's just alot of filler to me. I hope the next book has more things happening instead of just all this setup.

improved

If I had one complaint about the series, it would be that it tends to meander at places. Here we go from action to action at a breakneck speed and I loved every second of it.

Now Plot going & less blah blah blah!

Plot is picking up speed in terms of large scale humanity in the verse. Glad to get to see the spiders and love the beetle characters.

Another wonderful addition to my library.

Loved the book as well as the entire series.
R.C. Bray is masterful as usual.
My only real problem is waiting 6 months plus for the next Audible installment of this series.
Enjoy the book and WAIT for the next!
