Jessica Keller has a reputation as a maverick commander. It almost got her court martialed. Now, it has gotten her a new command in an obscure sector, with orders to ignite a new front in the eternal war.

Worlds will fall before their feud ends, but only if she can forge her crew of strangers into a weapon. Otherwise, disaster looms.

Riveting tale well told

Tyler’s voice was perfect to tell the story of the intrepid Commander Keller and her engineering gnomes. Thoroughly enjoyed this story and I look forward to more.

Enjoyable

I enjoyed the strong, kick-butt, and intelligent mind of Jessica. Having said that, the development of the story was less than smooth, with the narration sounding hesitant to my mind.

Great story, boring narrator.

I enjoy Blaze Ward & have read this ebook several times. The narrator does not do the story justice. For the most part she is simply a reader, with little inflection. She does do pretty well with different voices for the various characters. I have listened to many audiobooks where the narrator brings the book to life, but not this one. It is still a good book, and one I still recommend, but a different narrator could have made it much better.
