Odyssey One: Star Rogue

By: Evan Currie

Length: 8 hrs and 40 mins

Publisher's summary

Earth's survivors face devastating new challenges in the wake of recovering from an alien conflict. Battered and mourning tremendous losses, the once fractious peoples of enemy nations must work together to rebuild their shattered world - and prevent the possibility of their attackers' return. What they don't know is that a new, deadlier enemy unlike anything they've ever faced will usher in the dawn of another war.

Captain Morgan Passer commands the Rogue Class destroyer Autolycus, charged with an interstellar recon mission to detect traces of the repelled enemy while gathering information for the fortification of Earth's defenses. What the expedition finds instead is a deeply disturbing mystery: a discovery that redefines everything they thought they knew about Earth's place in the galaxy...and reveals deadly new horrors. In this original story set in the Odyssey One world, former enemies unite for their own survival, and Passer and his intrepid crew seek answers to help them save their people. Instead, they find that the invasion may be over, but the danger is just beginning.

Great addition to the series

I really liked this side story that filled in some gaps referenced in the main series. Good narration- I wasn't bothered by the change in pronunciation that bothers others.

Great sci-fi entertainment!

Evan Currie’s books are becoming an addiction for us. Like Pokémon, “ you gotta catch ‘em all”! We’re reading through all of his series and we were delighted to find this stand-alone story which ties into the Odyssey One series. Currie brings in new people and some great alien creatures/monsters. What a marvelous imagination this writer has! I won’t give any spoilers, but I will say that this was an intensely exciting read. If your a fan, you will enjoy adding this one to your Currie collection. Great fun!

Another solid story from Currie

I really enjoyed this book, and despite its shorter length compared to his other works it packs a great amount of action!

Outstanding!!!

This is one of the best military sci-fi audiobooks i have listened to.Excellent story(might be interesting to have a site discussing the very interesting science in this book) Evan Currie is really one of the most interesting authors in the genreAlso,Excellent narration.This book reminds me a lot of the alien 2 movie but with some of the science of interstellar , it would really be great if he wrote some books of the Halo franchise.Really underrated author right now.Excellent audiobook,finished it almost in one day!

Great science fiction story with great action.

I really enjoyed this story. It does have Many characters so you need to pay attention to who every one is. It is set up well and easy to follow. I have not read or listened to the other books in this series so I really enjoyed this story. I loved the narrators performance. He brought the characters to life and pulled me into the action.

A Tour De Force!

I loved this book. I have been a fan of the Odyssey One series since the first book and this current book is no less enjoyable than previous episodes. This volume, apparently in a new spin-off series, with a new hero, is really great space opera. Lots of problems to solve, very interesting speculative physics and some new monsters make for a great listen. The band of explorers get side-tracked looking for clues to the source of the Drasin, but learn new things about the universe they live in. I was sorry to have the novel end and look forward to the next book. I did not initially like the reader's voice, but he did an excellent job of keeping the excitement going and playing the multiple characters in the story.

Great addition to the verse

The plot was solid, character development was complex and believable, and added new interesting future plotlines to the verse.

Does not transition well....

I found myself rather bored with this one the story is pretty cool but honestly the talk of submarines and wars in the Pacific Co fused me into thinking I was in some universe that was stuck between ww2 and some distant future rolled into a episode of jeepers creepers... rather corny in places but compared to some of the other sci-fi books I listened to this one was regrettably not one of my favorites ... worth listening to a second time incase the parts that left me zoning out yielded things I missed...

Awesome book!

This book is classic Evan Currie! Lots of action, lots of suspense, alien beasties trying to eat everyone! It doesn’t involve the characters from the odyssey books, but that is clearly stated in the summary. These are characters that you do see in the odyssey books, but they are on a different mission. As a standalone book, or even as part of the odyssey series this is an amazing read. I would highly recommend it!

King of Thieves Excellent!

An excellent addition to the In To The Black universe. New and well thought out characters with out copying characters from the original series. I can't wait to see them grow in the coming books. The hardest part of Evan's books is waiting for the next!
