Blindside

A Novel

De: Michael Mammay

Narrado por: R.C. Bray

Colonel Carl Butler charges back into the world of military crisis, corporate malfeasance, and intergalactic mystery in the action-packed fifth Planetside novel from science fiction master Michael Mammay.

Carl Butler has returned to his home planet from the moon Taug and is looking forward to some rest and relaxation. But following two mysterious deaths connected with the Taug mission, he realizes that the intruders that recently set off his home’s security system might be looking to add him to the death toll.

Having been Butler’s muscle on numerous missions, Mac is no stranger to getting involved with mysteries that should be none of his business. So when the daughter of one of his gym members goes missing, he offers to help. Mac assumes she’s a simple runaway, but the case turns out not to be so clear-cut. Wondering if these strange occurrences are somehow related, Butler—along with Mac, Ganos, and the rest of his small crew—once again finds himself neck deep in intrigue.

As the clues for the various cases begin to intertwine, Butler sees the hand of an old enemy at work, and…well…he’s never been one to sit back and wait for something to happen. Gathering the team, he heads off across the galaxy to confront his suspects head-on.

But this time, they’re waiting for him.

Best Sci-Fi Crime Thriller Available

My favorite, modern, corporate crime thriller. Butler and cast are extremely well written. I look forward to these books and typically finish them within 48 hours. Thank you RC for bringing to life another incredible character.

Butler and the Crew are back

Enjoyed this one a lot. Butler is back, though this time the story is told through split narratives of Butler and Mac. The author did a good job of tying in the past book’s into this story, which gives the world depth if you have read the other books. The end also sets things up nicely for a follow book I hope is coming.

I can’t get enough of Butler Mac and the rest of the crew.

I wish the book was longer. I enjoyed it too much and wanted more. I can’t wait for the next book

it continues

Mac and Carl Back at it again. It will never be over. Looking forward to the next adventure.

These books are reliably great

I have listened to every one of these books, and they’ve all been quite good. The narrator puts some really good feeling into it, and the writing has an excellent flow. Even complicated battles are easy to follow and make sense - I hate it when battles don’t make sense.

I like the snarky asides the characters sometimes use and even though billionaires-as-sociopaths is a common trope, it helps that it’s true.
