Firestorm

Destroyermen, Book 6

De: Taylor Anderson

Narrado por: William Dufris

Lieutenant Commander Matthew Reddy and the crew of the USS Walker find themselves caught between the nation they swore to defend and the allies they promised to protect. For even as the Allies and the Empire of New Britain Isles stand united against the attacks of both the savage Grik and the tenacious Japanese, the "Holy Dominion" - a warped mixture of human cultures whose lust for power overshadows even the Grik - is threatening to destroy them both with a devastating weapon neither can withstand.

Not buying any more until the last one is done

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

That's hard to say. I like the book so far, but since the narrative just keeps going and going seemingly without end, I don't know if I would be on the hook if it just starts to drag on and on and on and eventually sucks.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

No spoilers possible. There isn't an ending yet. None of the books sufficiently wraps things up, it's just one long story that is still going.

What about William Dufris’s performance did you like?

As always, Dufris has a good feel for his characters and puts a great deal of energy into his reading.

Any additional comments?

My sincere hope is that this series, though it started very well does not just continue until all of the magic is gone (like American TV, the goal is to stay on until it sucks bad enough to cancel).

Any additional comments?

This series rivals David Drake's RCN Series

Ship Ahoy

Nice to see the Dame famine coming to an end and that the New British Empire will be allies. The Grik are certainly getting more threatening and their new Technology will make the future far more uncertain for the Allies!

Things are really getting hot war both fronts

What did you love best about Firestorm?

I enjoyed the action both on the sea battles and the land battles

Who was your favorite character and why?

Too many to pick just one Dennis is a character but they are all interesting

What does William Dufris bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Without a doubt Mr Dufris is one of the greatest readers around I enjoyed all of his books so far
Keep up the great work

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Both reactions made the book that must a pleasure to enjoy

Any additional comments?

Look forward to the next one

Highly entertaining.

It's quite obvious that Mr Anderson knows his history, gunsmithing, and Navy protocol. He is also a more- than-capable writer. A basic trade-craft skill many of the current generation lack.
