Spacers, Part 5

De: Scott Bartlett

Narrado por: Mark Boyett

And so it has come to this.

The star cluster is awash with the blood of those whose lives have been spent by two men maneuvering fleets like pieces across a chessboard.

Only one man can come out on top: Thatcher or Moll.

But when a victor finally emerges, what will it mean? What solace can truly be taken by those left over, those whose very lives have been wrecked by a war of unrivaled carnage?

Surely someone will be left to pick up the pieces. Someone with the vision to make all of this mean something.

For Thatcher's part, he can only do what he was made to do.

Win. At all costs.

Spacers, Part 5 contains Book Nine: Dead Ahead through to the end of Book 10: Storm Break.

Interesting and worth checking out

Any sci-fi fan interested in space travel will enjoy the series. Narrated exceptionally well !
If there’s another series from this author I’ll be checking it out soon.

The ending a big let down!

The age old plot where good prevails over evil is a sacred tradition. Reversing the tables at the end of ten books wasn't the crime. The crime was not giving the reader a plausible backstory.

The ending!

Fantastic series, made my rides to work a lot more enjoyable. Almost crashed my car on that ending though🤔. Appreciated your authors note and that you care about your listeners.

the story was easy to understand and visualize.

the story was easy to understand and visualize. the reader did a great job portraying the characters and making the impact of certain words in situations pop throughout the whole series.

I too struggle with the ending….

The series was an amazing listen. The ending was something I was surprised with, but not totally expecting. In my mind, it was one of the endings I was expecting, but in my heart, I yearned for humanity to find peace. Now it seems the cycle will start again… i hope for a follow on that brings it to a more peaceful end vs. one that seems hopelessly to repeat itself.

Such a build up to crash

Love the story but the ending falls itself flat. No closure of any kind. Like a multiverse of madness and GoT mix up.

Glad I listened to all TEN books

Excellent narration. A lot of people are complicating and whining about the ending, but I’m.not sure why. Maybe they live in a world where the hood guy turned pretty bad guy, turns back into the hood guy and triumphs over literally “untriumphable” odds. (Not a real word I know) but personally I enjoyed the ending. Was it surprising? Yup. But it wasn’t just a flippant oh I don’t know how to end a book situation. The book ended with a deeper sense of hope and redemption than could have been penned in any other even space fiction ending. Don’t let those clowns turn you away. It’s a long but good we’ll thought out story. Yeah I wanted to throat punch Tad Thatcher in about 90% of the book. Aside from that I loved it.

Poor ending that makes the 10 book series worth little

The ending was in poor taste. The author has reasons for this that as a reader I cannot agree with.

Disappointed in the ending

Absolutely loved the series EXCEPT the disappointing ending. I feel cheated out of resolution.

overall a good saga, but that ended

the story is great, but the ending of this saga 10 books long feels unsatisfying, to say the least. The cycle renewed ended to end up back at the beginning of a slightly altered cycle is almost a cop out. the author's note at the end helps clarify the end but doesn't make the end any better.
