Deathstalker

Deathstalker Series, Book 1

De: Simon R. Green

Narrado por: Gildart Jackson

Owen Deathstalker, last of the infamous warrior Clan, always considered himself more of a writer than a fighter, preferring his history books to making any actual history with a sword. But books won't protect him from Her Imperial Majesty Lionstone XIV, who just outlawed and condemned Owen to death, without any explanation, reason, or warning. No wonder she's called the Iron Bitch.

Now, on the run from Imperial starcruisers, shady mercenaries, and just about everyone else in the Empire, Owen's options are limited. Though the name Deathstalker still commands respect in certain quarters, out on the Rim, Owen is lucky he can cobble together a makeshift team of castoffs, including an ex-pirate, a cyborg, and a bounty hunter. But allies won't be enough to save him.

If he's to live, Owen can either run forever...or take down the corrupt Empire. To do that, he'll need the fabled Darkvoid Device - an artifact dating back to the first Deathstalker and perhaps the only weapon powerful enough to help this ragtag rebellion win. The time has come for Owen to finally embrace his Deathstalker heritage...and all the blood and death that go along with it.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Green blends derring-do, space battles and wry banter aplenty to form an eminently satisfying space opera." ( Booklist)

English one piece

like the title says my friend recommended me this book after i recommend the anime because it sound like my type of jam if i like one piece was told to read or hear this book so decide to take a shot at it i do not regret trying it, its was an overall great time cant wait for the next one,

Great story.

Simon Green is a great author and this is a fabulous saga with a grand cast of characters. It has the lot, aliens, robots, evil plots, alter egos. It sounds superfluous but it all hangs together wonderfully.
I'm going to get the next book in the series right now.

Like game of thrones in space!! Only better lol

Absolutely loved this book! Some of Green's best work. Full of intrigue and suspense with comedy and a little romance sprinkled here and there. Exquisitely written and thought out. Really reminds me of game of thrones, and not simply because of the use of the same words lol.

Hidden Gem

I wasn’t familiar with Simon R. Green’s work prior to Deathstalker. Nevertheless, the book was on sale and the summary sounded interesting. Buying it blindly turned out being a well rewarded leap of faith indeed. Deathstalker is very well written and narrated, the characters have strength of personality, and the story is simply fantastic.
If you’re a fan of Galaxy’s Edge or martial-based SF epics in general, then you’ll dig this too.

great books

fast paced full of action super teck meets super heroes hope you enjoy it as much as I do
