Thanks for this in more ways than one!

First, thanks to Mr Porter, whom the author acknowledges IS the voice of Joe Ledger.

Secondly, thanks to Mr Maberry, whom I know likes anthologies, for putting together this collection of terrific authors to tell more tales of the adventures of the DMS and the people that they protect. I have always been suspect of these types of editions, but damn this is a good one!

Finally, thanks more than you can imagine for the Ghost story. I am a dog person, and for reasons that I’m not aware of (yet), that story brought me to tears.

5 stars to all—and now I have a new collection of authors and audiobooks to investigate.

Team of spec ops writers enter the Joe ledger universe

Absolutely brilliant!!!! First I love that Mayberry has opened the world of Joe ledger to other authors. Brilliant job done by all. Cohesive to the established world of the DMS and its characters but fresh takes on stories for that world. Added bonus of a bunch of new to me authors to explore. And of course Ray Porter the voice of Joe ledger and all the DMS continues his brilliant narration. Soooo more please as soon as possible.

Great Anthology

Loved it. Great additions to the Ledger-verse. One of the best anthologies I've come across. Excellent stories across the board and great narration as always.

Excellent Writing

I didn't realize I was buying an anthology- Oh well, Ray Porter is, in my opinion, one of the top 10 Narrators on Audible. With that said, the stories all include Joe Ledger in various situations (with the exception of one story, perhaps the weakest of them all. Still good but when I read/listen to this book again I will skip it). The stories are very very good. It will have you googling all the writers. The two stories that I didn't care for were about Ghost, narrated in first person, and the Dojo. Let me say this again, the writing is very very good. Even if you don't care for the stories you have to give a nod at the good writing.

Excellent Anthology!!

This was by far the best anthology that I've listened to! For die hard Joe Ledger fans, these stories provide a lot of background and interesting cross overs. BTW, I LOVED that Agent Franks from MHI was able to make a short appearance in the last Joe Ledger novel because of this introduction. All in all, there may have been 2 stories that were not up to normal Ledger standards, but the rest were excellent and well worth the credit.
I look forward to more!!

Another winner!

As always, Maberry does a fantastic job with a Joe Ledger compilation. The use of multiple authors brings new light and intrigue to Joe and the DMS. Once again, Ray Porter delivers an excellent narration studded with our favorite characters as well as new/crossovers. Keep em’ coming boys.
