It’s been 12 years since Jack Masterson last set foot on Lestaron Island. Fresh out of college and lacking a clear direction in life, he’s been asked by his aunt and uncle to travel back to the place he once called home to settle his recently deceased grandfather’s estate. Jack has little to look forward to in regard to his return, outside of a chance to reacquaint himself with Katie, his childhood friend and former crush.

Once every four years, the Earth Alliance Naval Academy is included in a war game...or rather, the Wargame: On a distant frontier colony, cadets must repair, recommission, and crew a fleet of old, mothballed warships for a simulated fleet action against a group of seasoned veterans using top-of-the-line warships. After some meddling on the part of the Admiralty, many of the Academy's best are assigned to the oldest, smallest hulk in the Wargame, the unfortunately named corvette, Chihuahua.

With echoes of wonder and cries for help, swarms of claws and clans under siege, the vastness calls out for a hero. Instead, Master Sergeant Riot and her ride-or-die crew - fueled by extreme amounts of caffeine, questionable morals, and a dose of epinephrine - stand against a pee-your-pants-a-little baddie, threatening the cosmos.

At long last, an extraterrestrial civilization reached out and made the First Contact. However, no one on Earth took their communique for the genuine article. In a similar vein, very few people appreciated just how little time our new suzerains had promised to keep our planet safe. Regardless, the end of their message showed humankind how to access a mysterious game. The objective of this game is unclear. No one can say where its servers are located, and its inner workings are beyond comprehension.

Very poor narration almost like speech impediment

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

Either learn how to pronounce military terms correctly, or choose a different genre. A vocal coach or editor was seriously needed on piece, it was like Mr. Berry wasn't even trying.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Matthew Berry?

James Patrick Cronin, Luke Daniels, R.C. Bray, Jonathan Davis, Tom Lenno

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Combat Wizard?

none it's unabridged

Any additional comments?

I realize that the more popular narrators cost more, but for audio you get what you pay for. I have enjoyed most of the authors written works to date. The military commentary and southwest references (Ft Bliss/El Paso, and New Mexico) are spot on.

Bland performance but serviceable

An interesting listen but some mispronunciations (more-tar?) and the generally banal reading took me out of the story.

There is an air of mystery and discovery about the abilities on display but those seem to have been shuffled to the second book.

The use of an echoplex to differentiate normal speech from telepathic communication is very clever.

I’m intrigued enough to kindle the second book but the performance on display lacks the kind of luster I’ve come to expect from audible.

Not a bad story, but PLEASE find a better narrator

Narrator reads very bland, and needs to learn and understand the terminology and nomenclature used in the story he's trying to read. Story line was good, but was constantly being distracted by poor narration.
