Aftershocks

The Palladium Wars, Book 1

De: Marko Kloos

Narrado por: Luke Daniels

“A new series that promises to be just as engrossing [as Frontlines]…the action just as exciting, the science just as solid, the tension just as high. I gulped down the first book in a day, and I am already eager for the next one.”—George R. R. Martin

Across the six-planet expanse of the Gaia System, the Earthlike Gretia struggles to stabilize in the wake of an interplanetary war. Amid an uneasy alliance to maintain economies, resources, and populations, Aden Robertson reemerges. After devoting fifteen years of his life to the reviled losing side, with the blood of half a million casualties on his hands, Aden is looking for a way to move on. He’s not the only one.

A naval officer has borne witness to inconceivable attacks on a salvaged fleet. A sergeant with the occupation forces is treading increasingly hostile ground. And a young woman, thrust into responsibility as vice president of her family’s raw materials empire, faces a threat she never anticipated.

Now, on the cusp of an explosive and wide-reaching insurrection, Aden plunges once again into the brutal life he longed to forget. He’s been on the wrong side of war before. But this time, the new enemy has yet to reveal themselves...or their dangerous endgame.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Aftershocks...looks at the impact of war and how easy it is for conflict to be reignited...[an] exciting new universe.”—Kirkus Reviews

I loved it

I could not set it down. loved the story. marko does it again. looking forward to next book.

Couldn’t stop listening

I’m already a big fan of Kloos’ and have listened to each of the Frontlines books several times. His stories have always been entertaining and well written, but this is a whole new beast.

Where Frontlines was a fairly typical military sci-fi series, this book has new layers of sophistication I wasn’t expecting. The plot weaves together beautifully and the characters feel even more realized. I cannot wait for the next book in the series to see where Kloos takes this.

Definitely a writer who only appears to get better with each book.

Luke Daniels’ narration is fantastic as always.

nothing really happens

this book felt like it was the introduction of a bigger novel. like the first chapters where you set up some of the main characters. I understand that this is part of a series, but nothing really happened aside from describing some characters. there is allusion to some group of players that will become the antagonists, but nothing really materializes aside from some piracy. I'm going to try the next book to see if anything materializes, but I'm not hopeful. weird though, especially given the fact that these books have good reviews.

Good book.

i like the writting style but the book just seemed to kinda hang up a little toward the end and I feel the conclusion was more a middle point then an ending.

Good audiobook

Easy to listen to. Has nice mix of back story and action. Looking forward to next book.
