Homeworld

Odyssey One, Book 3

By: Evan Currie

Narrated by: David de Vries

War comes home to the Sol system when the Drasin track a human ship back to Earth, with devastating consequences. Facing massive force of invading alien ships wielding terrible power, the crew of the NAC spacecraft, their allies, and the people of Earth must mount a desperate effort to stop them. Doomed from the start, but with nowhere to retreat, Captain Eric Weston commits his ship to the defense of the human race even as the human outposts in Sol system fall one by one before the unrelenting Drasin onslaught.

A first-rate military science fiction epic that combines old-school space opera and modern storytelling, Homeworld: Odyssey One, the third installment of the Odyssey One series, continues the exhilarating, hard-pressed action as the Captain Weston faces an overwhelming enemy threatening not just his ship and crew, but the future of Earth as well.

wonderful read

I enjoyed this book. As soon as I finished, I ordered the next. one in the series.

the battle is over

the drasin have come to earth, and this battle may be over. but the war is far from over, captain Weston is still alive and kicking and this time he is mad.

Narrator Issues

Every character the narrator does seems like they're screaming rather than tactical emphasis. There is also very little variation between character voices, inflections and accents. In particular, everyone save one of the foreign planetary peoples has nothing but American accents with the exception of the Bloc forces characters. It's even worse when a battle takes place, the character screaming is even worse.

IMPORTANT!! LISTEN TO THIS ONE!

For some reason they remade this book with a different narrator that isnt David de Vries and it was horrible! The narrator did a terrible job giving unique voices to the characters and engrossing you in the story like David de Vries has in book 1 & 2. Do yourself a favor and buy this one.

gettin better

wish the book would get more detailed but i expect next book will start answering questions

The narrator did an amazing job for a very good story

Really liked all the twists and turn even when some things were inevitable. He also honored the memory of those characters he built in the last two books.

The story hosts gets better and better

another great book in this series. I love the mix of military and science fiction.

If you like Space Opera, listen to this

Well written and well read by David de Vries.

just get the series in order.

Great story and improved performance

I have enjoyed the story and performance of all the books to this point in the series, but have to say that the voice characterizions in this book have been noticeably improved.

Same book, new narrator

I feel like I was scammed, saw a “new” Evan Currie book and bought it. It’s just an old one with new narration. I’ll return it without issue, but I wish it had been made clear in the description.
