BattleTech: Visions of Rebirth

Founding of the Clans, Book Two

De: Randall N. Bills

Narrado por: Brian Kozak, Charlie K. James

THE DREAM DESTROYED....

General Aleksandr Kerensky is dead. The Pentagon Worlds are in flames. The dream of a Star League-in-Exile is over, shattered by civil war. Amid the chaos, Nicholas Kerensky leads those who will follow him on a second exodus to the world of Strana Mechty.

Yet unlike his father, Nicholas must choose a different path: He wants to do away with all that was, and create an entirely new order. However, the bounds of society that go back millennia cannot be shed so easily. Resistance must be overcome, and blood must be spilled before Nicholas' dream can be achieved. But without his brother Andery's help, the entire venture is doomed before it even begins.

Brothers, however, don't always share the same goals. And as more aspects of civilization are purged in the relentless forging of this new society, Andery fears the worst of human nature will arise. Can he find a way forward and stay by his brother’s side…or will Nicholas’ ultimate vision be realized as everything Andery stands against?

Great voice acting great story

Are you looking to get in to Battletech? We’ll don’t start here go to book one of the series, listen to this wonderful performance next! Voice acting is great the story has genuine moments of suspense, intrigue and mystery that will make it very difficult to wait for the next book to be released.

Interesting story, performance was tough at times

I like the narrator and as a Battletech fan, I appreciate the attention to detail and pronunciation.

My complaint is that sometimes the angst, or tortured anger of Andry’s internal thoughts is so constant that it’s grating after a while. And there were definitely times where Andry was speaking aloud and I could not tell because his internal thoughts were so angsty that I didn’t know which was which.

Very happy otherwise, and if that’s really just how the book is, then I think the narrator did a very good job.

well written

It keeps your attention and explains a missing section of history in the genre overall a must listen.

Very interesting backstory for the Clans creation.

I enjoyed the overall series, and the learning of how the clans came to be. I disliked Andre’s loathing for Nicolas and the groveling he had ongoing. It got old.

nice explanation of how clans came to be!

good story linea though I'd like to see the younger brother finally bring the Karinskie name out to the glory it neades to create the clan worlds
