Story
After endless years of fighting in a galaxy-wide war, the most decorated super-soldier of the Old Federation was granted leave, sliding into a stasis tube aboard a sleeper ship. The ship never reached its port, and the soldier woke up a thousand years later on an operating table. The Old Federation was gone, most planets hurled back into the Stone Age. A devastated Earth used spies instead of spaceships to compete against the tougher, richer worlds.

Imperial Intelligence couldn't find them, the Imperial Fleet couldn't catch them, and local defenses couldn't stop them. It seemed the planet-wrecking pirates were invincible. But they made a big mistake when they raided ex-commando leader Alicia DeVries' quiet home/work, tortured and murdered her family, and then left her for dead. Alicia decided to turn "pirate" herself, and stole a cutting-edge AI ship from the empire to start her vendetta. Her fellow veterans think she's gone crazy, the Imperial Fleet has shoot-on-sight orders. And, of course, the pirates want her dead, too.

Thousands of crew are reported dead, including the ship’s captain. Reluctantly, the young XO, Galvin Quintos, will be taking command of the fleet's crippled dreadnaught, the USS Hamilton, while doing his best to bring fleet survivors back to Earth. To make matters worse, there’s a murderer running loose on board the ship, critically low fuel levels, and the Grish are back, in fast pursuit and ready to finish what they’d started. Only by sheer luck - and a good measure of cagey smarts - will Quintos be able to rise to the challenge.

Kaiden Jericho would rather skip the death part, thank you very much. He wants a little information and perhaps a little payback. He has some information on where an AO stronghold is located. He will need to retrieve vital proof to help get the council to believe the ghost-like organization exists. But can he get the support he needs to make a run at it? Before long, it becomes obvious this isn't a small outpost; more like a major outpost with a lot of support. Kaiden can't wing this operation.

I thought the hard part of helping the Helta defeat the rampaging Tevynians would be the fighting. How wrong I was. To the Helta, we Earthers look just like the Tevynians, their mortal enemies. And convincing their government to ally with humans may be even beyond the crew of the starship James Bowie. But the clock is ticking, because the Tevynian fleet is bearing down on the Helta homeworld. If we can’t talk the Helta into accepting our help to fight them off, then Helta Prime will fall.... And Earth will be next.

Publisher's Summary
Every corporation looks after its bottom line, but sometimes a corporation thinks it's an empire. The Mid-System Trading Company wants The Belt, and they don't care who they have to bribe or kill to get it. Their plans go south when a group of pirates hijacks the wrong shipment.
Fearing their plan will be exposed, MSTC hires an assassin to kill the pirates and retrieve the stolen weapons.
Sometimes, though, assassins can have consciences, pirates can be good guys, and battle armor can think it's an anime character.

Fresh Sci-Fi,Mil book that stands alone
My first review but since this book has no reviews I thought it worth while to help the author out and provide positive feedback.
This is a good story that is unique enough to warrant praise, the story and time period is close to the slightly pre Expanse series in intra-solar system age where humans are space bound, limited to the solar system, but have not diverged physically. The military aspects are woven into the story so as not to be a primary component but more of a defacto aspect. The story also is long enough and complete enough that it could be a stand alone but I hope a series develops.
Also I am a fan of sci-fi and work in tech, I feel the various aspects of jargon and technology were sound enough to suspend disbelief and that is across physics, AI, computers, military, etc (I have no military service so that aspect is a low bar). My only underlying question was in time as it seems to run together or pass in bursts without properly addressing it across the solar system (ie 4 chapters spent in a 12 hour period in multiple settings then suddenly its 2 weeks later and a long journey is done). I think this is something to just ignore as it does not subvert the story.
The narration is very good, the narrator sounds interested, the mixing is good, chapters and sections are given breaks to differentiate, and voices are distinct and quality. There are a few sound effects mixed in but mostly support the mood. If this series continues I would hope Mr Tuell continues.
In the end, I found myself rooting for characters, excited for reveals, and vested more than I have been in a while for a book. This book is well worth a credit and is a fresh outing in this genre.

Damn Good Sci Fi
If you love science fiction then you will love this book. It has dystopian future corporate espionage. Spy vs Spy. Ship to ship battles. Pirates. Romance. Everything. The Narrator did a great job as well. He uses very few affects and the ones he does use aren't distracting. I highly recommend.

The author is going places
the story immediately drew me in. He gives you enough to make the characters intriguing without giving everything away. It's a fresh take on a well-known situation, massive corporation, multinational government, and the little guy just trying to get by through any means necessary. With some work, he's going to be on the level of OSC. The dialogue was annoying in parts, but overall, I forgive that because the story is told so well. I can't wait for his next book.

Great book
This is a great story with some humor. Story plus narration kept my attention & I couldn’t put it down.I have a Suggestion for the narrator: learn how to do Irish accents (and others) It would have added so much more dimension to your characters. Other than that, narration was good.

Amazing space adventure
This story that feels like a beginning to a great series was so much fun. I was trying to find every moment to listen to it. I couldn't get enough. Much Intrigue! Much Suspense! Much Action! This was so so so good. If you're looking for a fun action packed sci fi adventure it is here. The military jargon is spot on. The complex relationships between the characters were so dang good. If you don't pick this up, you're losing out on a true treasure of literature
