Starship Victory is on its loneliest mission yet. Captain Maddox and his crew are thousands of light-years from Earth, searching for the dreaded Swarm Imperium.

But there are androids among them seeking to use the starship for hidden purposes.

Maddox and the crew are on their own, facing perils inside the ship and terrifying alien dangers outside in one of the remotest regions of the Orion Arm.

Wow!

The pacing of the story and versatility of the actor were great! Great story too

Good space novella with so many holes in the story

Would you listen to The Lost Patrol again? Why?

No. I never listen to anything twice

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

The crew could be less of a bunch of 10 year olds with their constant questioning of directives from the captain
The captain is so self centered it can be annoying.
The lack of common sense in parts of the story lines is a little annoying for example.
The robots are often described as being very strong and heavy yet no one has thought to identify them with a scale?
The enemy is often located a 1/2 light year away yet when the ship appears they immediately fire missile that fly less than light speed but will arrive in 30 hours?

With all this I still enjoy the series and will buy the next book

What about Mark Boyett’s performance did you like?

Mark has a great range of voices

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Cringe mostly

Keeps getting better!

This is an excellent addition to an already outstanding series. The characters continue to grow, interesting new characters are introduced, and the plot continues to develop in interesting and unpredictable ways. An outstanding book, and I can't wait for the next one!

good

I enjoyed it not the greatest read but I still enjoy it starting to get a little long-winded waiting for the end of the series

Great series

excellent series highly recommend. Great character depth almost like you know them. amazing how the voice actor can do this.

Good story

Well after the first book I did not hold a lot of hope for this series. I decided to go ahead and listen to the second book to see if it got better and it did.
Now into book 5 and each book since the second has gotten a little better. Very good story and the characters are a lot more fleshed out. I am enjoying listening to the on going adventures of Captain Maddox. Over all the series is definitely worth listening to.

Another great addition to the series

This story had a really interesting twist in it. For some this is a drawn out or slow paced series but I really enjoyed the pace and the details Vaughn puts into these stories. There characters are enjoyable and I look forward to the next book if one comes out.

Another incredible addition to a great series

This series has become one of my all-time favorites.

It just keeps getting better and better, building upon the previous books in an amazingly absorbing fashion.

The author is at the top of his game, and Mark Boyette does his usual wonderful performance.

I can't say enough about how good this series is!

I'm absolutely hooked on these books. What an imagination this author has to keep the stories so thrilling from book to book. The narrator really helps to keep you on the edge here and there. After some deep calming breaths, I'll be grabbing the next book.

The Swarm is comming

This wa the best one yet!, I can't wait for book 📚 six.
I recommend this series to any serious sci-fi fan
