Gone Nova

Backyard Starship, Book 19

De: J.N. Chaney, Terry Maggert

Narrado por: Jeffrey Kafer

Van is proving that with power comes danger.

From the shores of a secret planet to the halls of power in Washington, Van navigates a complex web of lies, law, and politics, all so that Earth can be saved from the clutches of ruthless criminals.

But these people aren't from Earth. In fact, they're not even human, and they see Earth as a ripe fruit ready to be picked.

That doesn't work for Van and his crew, so he begins fighting back with the dirtiest tactics of all: diplomacy. Since the aliens are among us, and they want money and power, Perry and Miryam will unleash their skills to craft a plan that uses Van, Icky, and Funboy to stop the exploitation of Earth cold, for the enemies are led by a new player in the galactic order.

The Tsarina. She's cruel, she's heavily armed, and she's coming for Earth—with a ship that can match anything the Guild has. With enemies at the door, Van finds out that Masters can fail, secrets are hard to keep, and the Earth is worth saving.

At any cost.

How dare you!

How dare you cry my own tears. No one makes me cry my own tears. Hell of an ending for a hell of a character. До свида, хороший друг. Прощай, гордый воин.

The saga of Vann Tutor & his crew!!

A wonderful story about a man that becomes a gallatic officer of Space. Then finds Terina. They eventually marry. Ikky is next can do anything dealing with mechanical issues. Funboy and Gabby. They were saved by an old friend's sacrifice. Can next forget Perry and Neddy 1+2. Or the work bot.

You haven’t started this series yet……

Still loving this series. It hasn’t become boring or full of babble. This is one of the best stories I had the pleasure to read. The crew continues to bring a smile to my face with their banter.

Consistent

A good listen and story. It’s been the same for the series in general. The performance was outstanding as usual.

Another Great Tale

As always the story is full of twists and turns keeping my attention. After 19 books I feel the characters are like family.

Another amazing effort by this team.

19 and still going strong the story is well written and the narration is fantastic. Characters come and go but the story goes on well done .

Yoshenko becomes a Hero!

I like the whole series. It’s cool following the entire career of a farm boy turned Master!

Series Only Gets Better!

If you were to tell me that after 19 books that I was to say the series just keeps getting better, I would LMAO! Perhaps I say this after each Backyard Starship book but it is true. (BEST BOOK OF THE SERIES). I can't wait for the next book to come out!

Witty Bird. Real emotions

if you made it this far in the series you've obviously enjoyed the humor the performance in audiobook is top notch. but as formulaic as almost all space fiction books are with the it's bad oh no it's worse oh look it's even worse. it's hard not to like the characters and root for the underdog.

Family makes the terrors of space tolerable.

Book 19 continues the excellence of this series—with gifted narration equal to the task of bringing an interstellar cast of characters to life.
