The Deliverance has arrived. The planet is beautiful, lush, teeming with life and perfectly suited to the colony’s needs. It should be a paradise. Instead, it’s a nightmare. Caleb knows the truth. The ship’s real mission has nothing to do with settlement. The plan is much more sinister than that. Now the race is on to prepare for the coming storm, to secure the colony, and find the enemy before the enemy finds them.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 140
Caleb is a former Marine Raider and commander of the Vultures, a search and rescue team that's spent the last two years pulling high-value targets out of alien-ravaged cities and shipping them off-world. When his new orders call for him to join 40,000 survivors aboard the last starship out, he thinks his days of fighting are over. The Deliverance represents a fresh start and a chance to leave the war behind for good. Except the war won't be as easy to escape as he thought.

The Deliverance isn’t alone. That’s not a surprise. The planet was chosen for a reason. But the situation is more dire than Caleb ever imagined. The enemy he’s encountered isn’t the enemy he was seeking, and the conflict is expanding in ways he can barely conceive. Taken prisoner by an opponent both familiar and foreign, he’ll have to prove himself one more time.... Or watch everything he’s fought so hard to protect be destroyed.

Series finale! The Deliverance is on the brink of destruction. The planet is more dangerous than anyone realized - the crossroads of a war millennia in the making - and the colony is Ground Zero. But the courage of a few can move mountains, and the fight isn’t lost yet. The enemy thinks they have Caleb right where they want him. They ought to think again.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 123
Two hundred years ago, aliens invaded Earth. A violent war followed. The enemy won. Some of us escaped, most of us didn’t. On Proxima they flourished - the invasion forgotten. On Earth we floundered - the horror began. Their world is advanced, peaceful, and secure. Our world is broken, savage, and overrun. A new invasion is coming. A hunger that has swallowed half the universe. They don’t care which planet we live on. They want to end us all. But where there is life, there is hope. And where there is hope, there are heroes. This time, vengeance will be ours.

For Sheriff Duke, the danger has reached the final countdown. Captured, tortured, beaten, but undefeated, it’s 60 seconds to midnight, and the only way to save his wife and daughter is through the fugitive he left home to hunt. But the real enemy isn’t what they seem, and the history of the forgotten Earth is about to be rewritten. Will any of it matter if there’s no one left to read it?

A menacing wasteland. A destructive new weapon. A planet on the edge of catastrophe. Sheriff Duke can’t rest. There’s no time to slow down. The threats are unending. The enemy unyielding. If he wants to stop the apocalypse, he’ll have to cross a treacherous wasteland where the cannibals and murderers are the least of his worries, and the creatures infesting the landscape aren’t the most dangerous thing in his path. The race is on, the doomsday clock is counting down, and if he fails it will be more than his wife and child that are caught in the fallout. It’ll be the world.

It wasn’t supposed to be this way. Three days. That’s what they promised. But on Earth, the danger is unrelenting, and promises are hard to keep. Now Sheriff Duke is the one on the run, chased by an unexpected enemy eager to finish what they started. An enemy with an agenda that begins with killing him but ends with something worse. Much, much worse. Once the secret is out, the universe will never be the same.

Two hundred years ago, a fleet of colony ships left Earth and started a settlement on Proxima Centauri. Centurion Space Force pilot Nathan Stacker didn't expect to return home to find his wife dead. He didn't expect the murderer to look just like him, and he definitely didn't expect to be the one to take the blame. But his wife had control of a powerful secret. A secret that stretches across the light years between two worlds and could lead to the end of both. Now that secret is in Nathan's hands, and he's about to make the most desperate evasive maneuver of his life.

They’re worse. Much, much worse. They say no good deed goes unpunished. It's time for Hayden to punish back.

He's already been attacked by demonic aliens, rogue soldiers, and even the people he thought were his friends. He's survived. Barely. He's entered a strange new world. A world he knows nothing about.

He can never give up. He can never rest until she's back in his arms.

It isn't perfect, but he has all he needs to be content. Until a malfunction forces his engineer wife to the edge of the habitable zone to inspect the damage.

Exhausting
Just when you thought things couldn't get any worse ... If you're looking for a book where the action just keeps coming - even when you try to escape it in stasis - then this is certainly the book for you. There is no time to catch your breath.
I ended up listening to this book in a day. My only question (and I am sure there must be an answer coming up further down the line) is, why would you throw an AI out of an airlock? As AI's don't need air to breathe its a bit pointless!
