The Warship

Rise of the Jain, Book 2

De: Neal Asher

Narrado por: David Marantz

The dangers of ancient technology loom over the Polity in the sequel to The Soldier, Neal Asher’s latest action-packed space opera series.

The haiman Orlandine, charged with safeguarding lethal Jain tech swirling inside an accretion disc located in the distant reaches of space, has weaponized a black hole to eliminate the threat. But others are suspicious of her motives, and both the Polity AIs and the leaders of the alien prador kingdom dispatch fleets of warships in anticipation of conflict.

As the black hole continues to eat its way through the planets in the accretion disc, making its way towards a dead sun, it becomes clear the disc has been hiding a larger secret. Nefarious forces with ulterior motives have manipulated Orlandine into deploying the black hole, triggering a series of larger events that will uncover a danger far older than even the Polity itself.

From British science fiction writer Neal Asher, The Warship picks up right where its predecessor, The Soldier, left off, showcasing Asher’s unique take on cutting-edge and fast-paced science fiction.

Strong story, weak physics.

Strong story and good plot development, although there was a minor plot hole toward the end. The author either has a weak understanding of the laws of physics or doesn’t care about letting said physics get in the way of a good story. The narration was top notch. Overall very entertaining.

here come the jain

loved this book, can't wait for part 3 of this series to conclude the story of the jain

Neal Asher!

Best Sci Fi Ever! The David Narantz's narration is Splendid, I wish he narrated all of Nasher's books. The
Warship is the second book in the Jain series. Check out some earlier works for your initiation into Asher's galactic worlds. Makes Star Wars look like Micky Mouse.

the polity never disappointed

loved it can't wait for the next installment
as this left us with bated breath.

Great series!

My favorite books from Mr Asher. My only complaint is for the publisher and audiobook rights. There is no The Human audiobook for American audiences. It was released for Europe but never got an American release. This is really disappointing and a missed opportunity for Neal and his fans.
