Resumen del Editor

Renegade Star: Publisher's Pack 4 contains books seven and eight of the Renegade Star series.

Renegade Dawn, book seven

Welcome to the Old World. Captain Jace Hughes and his crew have finally reached their destination: Earth, the mythical lost homeworld of humanity. It was said to harbor great wonders, fertile land, and beauty beyond comparison, but the reality is far, far stranger than any story. The Earth isn’t what they thought, and it must be rebuilt.

Using the newly acquired Galactic Dawn as a refitted transport vessel, Jace hopes to bring help from displaced worlds whose inhabitants can no longer sustain themselves. He’s going to need all the help he can get to jumpstart this new colony. That means farmers, workers, soldiers, and, perhaps most importantly, families, all of them working together to build a home they can call their own. But the Earth harbors many dangerous secrets, each one more deadly than the last. Secrets that could mean the end of everything Jace and his friends have worked so hard to achieve. The time for exploration and discovery has begun. Try not to get yourself killed.

Renegade Children, book eight

People are dying. Shortly after Captain Jace Hughes and his team recover hundreds of surviving Eternal refugees, disaster strikes. A recently unearthed fauna dome, one of many biological arks on Earth, is destroyed and several people are killed. All proof points to the Eternals.

Meanwhile, shortly after the slip tunnel at the center of the planet is shut down for good, a strange distress signal is detected. It appears to be coming from somewhere on the planet, but the exact coordinates are unknown. Two investigations are launched. One for the saboteur; the other for the source of the signal. With rising tensions between the colonists and the Eternals, Jace must do everything he can to prevent a bloody confrontation.

Always entertaining

I love this series. It never disappoints to draw me on to another world with characters I enjoy being with.
The storyline consistently offers mystery, battles with unknown beings, in a ever changing landscape.

Endings are hard for the author and the Reader

So why end a great adventure. Chaney brings the Renegade story home for our favorite characters. And then he steps up his game and adds more mystery and new challenges that keep the reader guessing. Chaney creates more dramatic choices with bigger implications with his most recent challenges for the Renegades and I love it. True Victory requires Sacrifice though. And now I wait for the next release...

fantastic story

These just keep getting better and better. I sat in my car and couldn't stop listening.

Oh captain

Amazing resilient renegade captain wins again with guns, smarts, crew, and two cognatives in addition to his ship.

Excellent! Another satisfying addition

Renegade Star: Publisher's Pack 4 continues to impress with the next two books in the Renegade Star series.
The characters have finally arrived at their destination, only to find their new home isn't quite what they'd expected. Then a new enemy is revealed, one that could threaten everything they've worked for.
JN Chaney continues to satisfy with fresh storylines and interesting characters. Paired with Luke Daniels' imaginative narrative, it was another one I listened to in one sitting.
I definitely recommend if you like Sci-fi with a bit of humor. Takes me back to Firefly days, and that always makes me smile.

More than I expected.

The story has always been fun, but where it left off last time felt like a dead end. The truth is far different. Two stories where Jace gets to do new things, meet new people, and expand on what we already know about him. A wild ride, and I'm ready for more.

Exception Writing

Absolutely loved it. Chaney is a very good writer
I enjoyed his books a lot.

The narrator is good and I can't wait to hear the rest of the novels.

Prior ones were better

It’s still okay, but the story doesn’t quite have the same intensity as the others had.

Amazing!

Luke Daniels...need I say more than that? Another oustanding performance bringing another amazing story to life!

Solid Continuation

One of the good qualities of this series is that the arriving to a (in this case literal) world of endless possibilities isn't the end the story, but merely the staging point. Too many times I've seen sci-fi stories journey endlessly to their destination, often Earth, and upon finally reaching it roll the credits. Wait, where are you going? This was the part I wanted to see! Get back here and world build the rest of it you lazy @#$%!

But the Renegade Star series will actually take those events of 'what comes after' and weave it into its ongoing narrative in stride. We've reached Earth, congratulations! Now lets explore what exactly comes next and start the next journey.

Luke Daniels is one of my top narrators so I'd be hard pressed to give him anything less than 5 stars, but I do have to make one specific complaint. He does an excellent job of crafting a whole library of voices and accents for all the characters he reads for. Sometimes those accents turn out just a bit outlandish, but that's understandable when you're stretching yourself to create more than a dozen unique voices. That being said, a couple of the newly introduced side characters sound like Looney Tunes caricatures. One in particular is supposed to be a fairly important character but she sounds like she should be serving beers at Octoberfest wearing lederhosen 2 sizes too small for her soundingly mannish proportions. If you're reading this Luke, bad Luke, bad! I'll give you a pass this time because you're otherwise excellent. But unless you need to read a character named Bertha I suggest never using that voice again!
