Author shows promise!

A "made for action" story and it delivers. I look forward to how this author develops.

meh

I kept waiting for the story to start and then it was over. This seems to be based on current day Marines boot camp with a little Sci Fi twist to it. Narration was Excellent!

Decent

Needs a serious ramp up in the story line and action. Two books in and there is no real understanding or purpose of the story or characters, what’s happening to them, or really any depth at all.

For example, why is there a random alien race helping Poe. Two entire books and a seemingly important character is nothing more than a creepy imaginary friend.

Narrator is keeping this series on life support.

good stuff

Gives me a real Drop trooper/ Galaxies edge type feel. "Frog dogs" is pretty hilarious too.

Great time, but it's actually 2 books

As I said in the title, the description dosent tell you for some reason but this is actually books 1 and 2. book 1 is interesting but definitely a bit more of a prologue. a good one for sure but things really ramp up in book 2. hope you guys enjoy it as me.

Spend the credit

A captivating story by Scott Bartlett and masterfully narrated by Mark Boyett. I started the book on a vaca and snuck in lisenting time when I could. Nearlyl finished by time got home very late, but stayed up until 2:30am to find out what happened to Po. Looking forward to this series!

Great, thoughtful view of boot camp and the underlying progress and confusion of a soldier’s creation.

I love the ambiguity of right and wrong with the elites of both societies. Are we the good guys? Not in any ultimate sense, but enough to get the job done. Be a cog that makes a difference.

Interstellar Marines Kicking Butt

a fantastic story, great characters an an bonus it was book 1 & 2 an I can't wait for more!!!!

An Engaging Blend of Consequences and Redemption

This story delivers a compelling mix of military action and character development. Po Abbato, the main character, starts out as someone who isn't easy to like. His journey from a troubled young man to a Marine facing the harsh realities of war is both gripping and transformative. The narrative doesn't rush into battle but instead builds a solid foundation during boot camp, setting the stage for a larger conflict.

Boyett’s narration adds another layer, bringing out the personalities of each character and making the world feel immersive. His performance is spot on, whether during intense combat or quieter moments of self-reflection.

Bartlett excels at capturing the camaraderie and struggles that come with military life. This isn't just about explosions and space battles—there’s an emotional depth that keeps you invested in Po’s journey and eager to see where the next installment will take him. If you're a fan of military sci-fi, this series offers a satisfying blend of drama, action, and character growth. Highly recommended!

It's ok

I think the story had way too much build up and the action scenes weren't detailed enough for the payoff. Honestly a decent story, but there's no closure in the end of it for me
