Janissaries, Book 3

De: Jerry Pournelle, Roland Green

Narrado por: Keith Szarabajka

The adventure begun in Janissaries continues.

Kidnapped from Earth as they were about to die in battle, Rick Galloway and his band of mercenaries, like the other human slaves on the planet Tran, will not be missed. Subjects of the Shalnuksi slave masters, they are forced to harvest the priceless drug surinomaz. Now, even as slaves, Earth's transplanted warriors are locked in battle - against one another. But an epoch is ending. As the Demon Star sweeps toward its devastating apex, the slave masters flee the planet to await its annihilation in safety. Soon all life on the planet will cease, leaving it ripe for repopulation.

Great story

This was a great story,!I never get tired of hearing it or reading it

Good third book. leaves you wanting more .

The ending leaves the reader wanting more books in the series. Really want more books to answer unresolved questions like the determining the question of Earth ending.

Good overall

It’s a little difficult to get to the point where the story becomes more than a bunch of I associated people and events but once I got all the pieces in order I really enjoyed the story.

a lot like the third book in a lot of trilogies

like a lot of trilogies, the first book is always the best the second and third are mediocre.

Confusing and last book!?!?!?!

A bit hard to follow the plot, perhaps just am issue listening instead of reading, but too many characters. Apparently this is the last book in the series, does not really have a satisfying conclusion, author certainly intended for there to be more.

Just Like the Good Old Days

Listening to this series has made me feel 50 years younger! Ah, for more stories like this . . . reminds me of the Golden Age of science fiction. I also recall this narrator as a character in The Equalizer (the series, not the movies). What a great trained voice choice for this series.

what a great series.

what a phenomenal series some of the best action of anything I've read all three books are magnificent now if audible would add book four so I could finish it up that would be great .

Great storytelling

I am a fan of Jerry Pournelle and this is my favorite series of his. I’m looking forward to reading the last book that was released after his death. I have the first three book multiple times over the years and still become immersed in the story lines. Even if you’re not a science fiction fan there is enough here to keep you interested.

3rd book still fun

I really liked the further adventures of Rick Galloway. I reccomend it. I'm now going to get the next book mamelukes

An Excellent series and an excellent narrator

I power listened to all three books in the series and while a book 4 is available on Kindle, it's not yet available on Audible. I've written asking when I can expect the Audible version. I was sad to discover that Jerry Pournelle died in 2017. I've read several of his books and enjoyed them all. I was very impressed with Book 1: Janissaries, quickly finished off book 2: Clan and Crown, and book 3: Storms of victory. The action was well paced, the characters were well developed, and the story was interesting. I hope Audible releases book 4: Mamelukes in the near future. I would recommend all three of these books.
