Star Force: Origin Series Box Set (81-84)

Star Force Universe, Book 21

De: Aer-ki Jyr

Narrado por: Ed Waldorph

Don your armor, load up on ammo, and get ready for your combat training. You don't become a badass by signing on the dotted line, you gotta earn it the hard way.... Same goes for your team. You have to learn to fight, how to work together, and how to lose...for the ancient origins of humanity on Earth are dark, devastating, and destined to return. Earth is going to lose, and lose badly, when our time is up, but out of the ashes of defeat, we may be able to scrounge up a future if you and the other future warlords can learn how to overcome the losses and turn them to our advantage.

And the one advantage we have is the repository of ancient knowledge left behind when our former masters abandoned Earth during a civil war. They assume everyone died, but a few human slaves remained, and now we live only because of that mistake.

But they didn't just make one. Their second was leaving the most heavily defended and valuable building on the planet intact, because destroying it along with the others when they bugged out would be too time consuming. Instead, they buried it, and now we have limited access to the advanced technology and database inside. From it, we know the truth about our ancestry, as well as the superhuman powers they laced into our genome...and because of those powers, any human not under their direct control carries with them an automatic death sentence.

So when we're found out, we're all going to die...unless you and your team can grow into the war leaders we need, figure out how to use the ancient technology as well as those who created it, and find a way to do the impossible and overcome a galactic empire millions of years old. An empire known as the V'kit'no'sat, which Earth hilariously misinterpreted as a group of extinct animals called the dinosaurs.

The invasion of the Core worlds and side stuff…

Most of this book is the impressively written and detailed invasion of the lizard core worlds. Especially dealing with such huge fleets, stations and planetary rings! Not to mention what has to be hundreds of trillions of population. Jyr brings it with the fog of war and the weight that the lizards’ tactics puts on our favorite warriors’ shoulders due to the bloodbath. Jyr does a great job with working through the mental turmoil and tug a war with Paul and the others not wanting to compromise their ethics. Or the Star Force way.
But while the long invasion is occurring, Jyr does his thing and shows us other interesting aspects around Star Force. Such as a new entity that is given permission to help out with keeping the core-ward border line.
Then we see some other fronts in the lizard war and other races, including one that is brought into the fold. Offering new weapons in their ever growing arsenal.
Then we get to the doorstep of a place where none have managed with the lizard home world! And lizards are their normal devious selves. Testing Paul and the others to be constantly patient and vigilant. There are also some good surprises. Those thought loss in the floods of the lizards’ horde…

The narrator is tolerable.

Dislike narrative

The stories are ok but the narrator puts me to sleep his voice is rather flat and not much emotion. Sometimes he even repeats a passage. If I had not already purchased all of the books I would stop the series.

where's the dinosaurs ?

story just keeps dragging on, where are the vicatnosats ? Dinosaurs ? 22 books waiting to be introduced and still haven't.
