Winds of Wrath

Destroyermen Series, Book 15

De: Taylor Anderson

Narrado por: P.J. Ochlan

Matt Reddy and the crew of the USS Walker are positioned to push the line of battle to the breaking point on an alternate Earth, in the thrilling return to the New York Times best-selling Destroyermen series.

Matt Reddy and his sailors have fought, bled, and died for their Lemurian friends and other allies from across time, but their enemies are still operational. In Africa, the Grik General Esshk has escaped defeat to build a new army and new weapons, and is desperate enough to use them to destroy the world if he can't have it.

In South America, the NUS, General Shinya, and the Army of the Sisters have the evil Dominion on the ropes and are closing in on the seat of its blood-drenched power, but the twisted Don Hernan has struck a deal with the fascist League, and Victor Gravois is finally assembling the awesome fleet of modern ships he's always craved. If he's successful, the war will be lost.

Undermined by treachery on a stunning scale, Matt Reddy must still steam his battered old ship halfway around the world, scraping up what forces he can along the way, and confront the mightiest armada the world has ever seen in a fiery duel to the death.

Brace yourself for minor irritations.

I was very sad to hear that William Dufris had passed away. The dedication to him read by the new narrator was very touching. I was overall pleased with the narration and was prepared for there to be changes. I just wish the new narrator had done his homework. He changed the pronunciation of Earl Lanier’s name. He gave Shinya an R for L accent which Shinya never had.

This could have been avoided with a little listening to how Dufris portrayed these characters.

Thanks

Thanks Show much I love the book very much. Outstanding series that I wish would go on forever

The end of an era

To be honest, LCDR Matthew Reddy and the cast of Destroyermen have been my guiding lights all my adult life. It has been my greatest privilege to finally equal his rank in the U.S. Navy Ben Mallory's aerial antics inspired me to go for my pilot's license and the never quit attitude saw me through a nightmare of a checkride. As an engineer, the gumption and adaptability of the destroyermen have inspired me to assess, adapt, and overcome many challenges. Thank you Taylor Anderson for all that you. and your fantastic world have given me and my real life adventures.

almost perfect

this was a great place to close out the series leaving room to return to this world, my only wish is that one baddie had a more conclusive ending but I can see why you might keep them around great series

Excellent book and series.

I’ve listened to the whole series. It is one of the best I’ve read or listened to.

An Epic Series

Entire series was an immersive storytelling experience in an epic, expertly crafted world and tale.

THE END

Spoiler what a great end to a great set of SiFi alt time series, there is a lot left for another or even Taylor Anderson to hook on to and continue the story on the planet that is almost earth, the Humans, Cats and Grik still don't trust each other and the world that Reddy and his Destroyer men discovered is still mostly unknown, advances in tech are to be expected the big man and his friend Larry could become explorers and how know what kind of trouble they could get into, Capt. Reddy is retired but still alive and his leadership skills could be needed again, the Walker is now the test bed for the latest in electronic equipment. power plant advanced and weapons' research all under the eye of its ex Engineering officer and his two chief aids a skinny guy and a and a scared female cat team how take charge of keeping the Walker in tip top running condition so many lose ends could keep this series going for a long time, and there is that Assize guy, and the hole Grand Human, Lemurian and Grik Alliance, that can grow with trade and also dirty back room deals to be made. but as the say all good things come to and end and this was one fine ending for sure.

this is an outstanding theme and well presented

yes it is long when you get into it, but it is well written and technically accurate so you want more. great idea...science fiction on this world with an intense military theme . very creative. I would listen to the whole series again

Great Series but Ending felt rushed.

Great series and sad that has ended. I felt Winds could have been split into two books.

no sharks to jump

an excellent finish to a really good series.
PJ filled in admirably for Mr. Dufris, who will be missed.

if you enjoyed the prior books, this one will not disappoint.
