Gold Squad

Earth Legions, Book 1

By: M.V. Viltch

Narrated by: Daniel Thomas May

For most on Earth the war was over. For him, it's just beginning . . .

Jake Adlar's goals in life were simple—possibly nonexistent. All he wanted was to fly a desk. Hence, he'd joined the Space Force, the service with the most extensive array of Earth-side clerical specialties.

All he needed to make him happy was an office, a computer, his favorite coffee mug, and a never-ending pile of requisitions.

Then a pretty woman came along. Perhaps a drink or ten. Next thing Jake knew, he's shipped off to the Legions, doomed to fight in the seemingly endless war raging throughout the galaxy.

Now, survival tops the chart. Except that isn't so easy to do in the Legions, where everyone's a killer, officers are as merciless as the enemy, and dark schemes and secrets brood within the ranks.

Don't miss the start of this action-packed military sci-fi series from debut M. V. Viltch. Perfect for fans of Joshua Dalzelle, Rick Partlow, and Marko Kloos.

Great story

Strong military sci fi story, and the writing is really good. Great character development, though the narrator doesn't always do them justice. Its still a really polished audiobook, would recommend.

It started okay and just became crap

it's another story of corruption. no one cares about rules or law, just the powerful abusing the weak.

and of course the hero can't figure out that by staying quiet, no one will ever take his side or defend him from those abusing him.

just a slog of misery because he can't stick up for himself and tell the truth.

just a boring miserable story. I wish I could figure out how to get a refund.

Great reader but a terrible military.

I have no idea how a military this lacking in training could fighter longer than 30 min or how poorly the “enemy” thinks makes me infuriated compared to actual current military regs. I can’t go through listening to another book in this world without it driving me nuts.
