Sky Hunter

A Targon Tales Prequel

By: Chris Reher

Narrated by: Emily Woo Zeller

Air Command pilot Nova Whiteside is assigned to a remote outpost to guard the construction of a tethered orbiter, Skyranch Twelve, against rebel sabotage. The difference between the well-ordered Union air fields and this dusty garrison is made painfully clear when she runs afoul a brutal commander of ground troops.

When she is trapped behind enemy lines in a bloody uprising, she meets Djari, a civilian whose trust in the governing Union is shattered by what he has witnessed.

Indeed, not all runs according to protocol aboard the new station, and she soon suspects that more than farming is being done up there. When she uncovers the treacherous and illicit schemes taking place, it seems that local riots are the least of their troubles.

Excellent story, intriguing not all predictable

This is the beginning of the 2nd series of books by Chris Reher. I've enjoyed the characters whom all seeming to be very with Adventure. Nova was a true Shero full of spirit and will.

Had to remind myself this is fiction A LOT

There are certain expectations one has for good military scifi. Many times these expectations get in the way of truly enjoying the experience of a fictional story. Sky Hunter is really good at setting a world that resembles the contemporary military experience in a far flung future.

So often I myself had to remind myself that this is not a military documentary and that this is fiction. Scenarios that are presented here are not directly indicative of contemporary military realities, in my personal experience. But experience may vary.

This is a good story though all things considered very enjoyable.

Great Book

Very engaging from the first to the last.
I enjoyed every minute of listening.

OK but suspend belief, especially military peeps

2.75 Stars for me

The way the military was portrayed goes completely against how any military operates. I just skipped forward. It us a fun ride though.

Good storyline way too sappy

little too sappy for my taste. I like the storyline but too much touchy-feely.
