Story
In the early 21st century, an alien attack drove humanity to the brink of extinction. A thousand years after their defeat, the aliens haven't been seen since. Rada Pence has spent the last three years driving carts for an independent mining crew. Most likely, that's how she'll die, too. Then, deep beneath the ice of a Neptune moon, her crew discovers a long-lost ship. If it's from Earth's first space age, it would be worth millions.

Story
Young Cally is an apprentice within the most unusual order of sorcerers in the known world: the only one that forbids its members from using their powers to kill. Despite his lowly status, Cally's chosen by the Master of the Order to join a delegation to see their allies the Lannovians. The meeting will be historic: 60 years ago, the Order's enemies attacked them with a host of demons, forcing the Order to trap the monsters inside their own citadel and seal it shut with impenetrable wards. The trick worked so well the Order hasn't been able to get it back open since.

Story
In the realm of Isodoro, just two things stand between Alliance lands and the spears and muskets of the orcish hordes: the wizards of the Order and constant infighting amongst the orcs themselves. In the Alliance capital, young Wit has just been promoted from apprentice to full wizard - and saddled with the very unglamorous task of traveling to a distant iron mine to inspect it for fraud. Worse yet, he's partnered with Wa'llach, a drunken dwarven prisoner who's killed more people than most plagues. Yet those skills are about to become very handy.

We were fighting on the wrong side of a war we couldn't win. And that was the good news. The Ruhar hit us on Columbus Day. There we were, innocently drifting along the cosmos on our little blue marble, like the native Americans in 1492. Over the horizon come ships of a technologically advanced, aggressive culture, and BAM! There go the good old days, when humans only got killed by each other. So, Columbus Day. It fits. When the morning sky twinkled again, this time with Kristang starships jumping in to hammer the Ruhar, we thought we were saved.

Minalan gave up a promising career as a professional warmage to live the quiet life of a village spellmonger in the remote mountain valley of Boval. It was a peaceful, beautiful little fief, far from the dangerous feudal petty squabbles of the Five Duchies, on the world of Callidore. There were cows. Lots of cows. And cheese. For six months things went well: He found a quaint little shop, he befriended the local lord, the village folk loved him, he found a sharp young apprentice to help out, and, best yet, he met a comely young widow with the prettiest eyes.

In the 20th century Earth sent probes, transmissions, and welcoming messages to the stars. Unfortunately, someone noticed. The Galactics arrived with their battle fleet in 2052. Rather than being exterminated under a barrage of hell-burners, Earth joined their vast Empire. Swearing allegiance to our distant alien overlords wasn't the only requirement for survival. We also had to have something of value to trade, something that neighboring planets would pay their hard-earned credits to buy. As most of the local worlds were too civilized to have a proper army, the only valuable service Earth could provide came in the form of soldiers....

The ancient magic of wizards was anything but dark. It was the enlightenment that lifted humanity from the squalor of superstition, and the worship of fell spirits and capricious gods, but those days are gone. The shining glory of the sorcerers burned away the subtlety of wisdom, replacing it with easy power, held only in the hands of the elite - a new age built upon the elemental supremacy of aristocrats and the ignorance of the masses.

Publisher's Summary
A thousand years ago, an alien invasion set humanity back to the Iron Age. Slowly, we recovered, colonizing the Solar System in peace. And discovered that an unknown force is stopping us from exploring any farther. But before the cause can be discovered, a slow-burning conspiracy threatens to explode into System-wide war. With enemies at home and in the darkness beyond, a team of unlikely heroes-a janitor, a mercenary, an asteroid miner, and a pirate-are the only ones who can avert a second apocalypse. This set includes the first three books of the newly-finished REBEL STARS series.

1000 Years After the Breakers What Happened?
Big fan of both Ray Chase and Edward W. Robertson, having enjoyed all 9 books in the Breakers Series, so I looked forward to these books carrying the saga forward. I know that 1000 years had passed so all the characters from the Breakers would be long dead but these books took awhile to get going. It seemed like the most interesting and important thing that happened in all three of these books occurred right at the end of the 3rd book, the return of the Swimmers and the introduction of a 2nd alien species. Which creatures (spoiler alert) we never get to meet in any way because we get caught up in some corporate space wars.
True, Robertson had to establish a whole new set of worlds and characters, (which he did with the Locker with its gangs and military spacers and the hive with its young genius billionaire and techno nerds) but that took three books to accomplish. So maybe we get to meet the new aliens and find out why they don't want us traveling beyond the solar system in book 3?
I certainly hope so, and that audible will get the issues with further books in the series resolved.
As always, kudos for the fierce, powerful female characters and the totally cool with that and equally interesting male characters.
I guess I'm spoiled by Robertson's incredible feat of creating the Breakers amazing journey and I miss those guys! In any case, this mild disappointment won't keep me from reading more Robertson or from downloading book 3 if it becomes available for audible and in the mean time starting on the 3rd series of Robertson books available here.
BTW Ray Chase is the perfect reader for these books. All the characters are given unique voices. His energy rises and falls with the action. He's always got good pronunciation and genius understanding of how the lines should read. In 12 books, there's only one place where I would have read the line differently. Plus his female voices sound female without sounding like imitation women. Big fan!

Enjoyed the inclusion of a complete Rada backstory
After ordering this, I quickly realized that I had previously purchased Books 1&2 of this series. While I could have requested a refund, I decided to listen to Book 0, Rebel, based on the strength of Edward W. Robertson's writing skills and enjoyed it so much that I decided to continue to listen to books 1&2 and forget the refund, it was that good.
If you haven't listened to this series previously, I highly recommend it if you are interested in s skillfully written and engaging story and having the pleasure of a top-tier narrator in Ray Chase performance.

Great start to an interesting series
Reviewing publishers pack - books 0, 1, and 2 of this six book series. In a nutshell, I really enjoyed all three of these books, and I’m looking forward to the next three books.
I suspect that book 0 was written after book one, but I’m not certain of that. In any event, it fits in perfectly, and it tells the backstory of these characters, but it’s not filler at all. It’s a very engrossing story developing the characters who continue on in the later books. I love character development, and Edward W. Robertson certainly gives that to us here.
I’ll give a big tip of my hat to the author because each of the books is a complete the story within the book, and you don’t have to buy the next book to see what happens. Your do want to buy the next book, though, because the overarching plot continues, the characters are great and you do want to see where those characters go. I hate it when an author basically cuts the story in half forcing the reader to buy the next book to find out what happens. That’s lazy riding. This author will cause me to buy all six of the books, because I’m engrossed in the overall story and I love the characters.
I also am thankful for the excellent narration by Ray Chase. Great job! A note about the narration of the swimmers character: one reviewer gave up on the books quickly, because he could not handle the swimmers‘ voice. It would be irritating if that was the general narration for the book, but the swimmers narration occurs for no more than a combined 10 or 15 minutes in the entire book, so I didn’t find it problematic at all, and in fact, it was a great contrast in style.

excellent narration great space opera
loved the narrator's performance he lent real depth to the characters
thi should become a classic in our genre as it explores key issues of modern life and a supposed life in the greater solar system. there is enough science in it to get your "what if" glands pumping and just the right blend of plot twust and turns to keep it interesting. well worth it

Great Sci-Fi. Very real, & interesting characters.
I've been a fan of E.W. Robertson's fantasy world for many years (The Cycles of Arawn & Galand, The Scour, etc.). Decided to try his space works in-between new tales there. These are VERY different, of course, and yet VERY similar [varying genre aside] in that the character development is superb, as is the creativity of those characters [i.e. EWR, of course] and the situations they find themselves in. By the time I finished books 0, 1, and 2, & had purchased books 3, 4, & 5. And I can't wait to continue . . .

Solidly mediocre and uninspiring.
I listened to the Breakers series many years ago, not realizing that this series had been released as a semi-sequel to Breakers. To start, I appreciate that this is 1k years in the future and based heavily on Breakers, yet is can stand alone as its own story. That's about where my appreciation ends, however. Rebel Stars 0-2 is just boring, lazy writing. Its not awful, but it is not enjoyable. I only finished it because I feel an obligation to always finish a book I buy.
The story is full of ex-machinas, convenient plot skips, and miracle escapes with little to no explanation. The science part of the science fiction is heavily lacking. Opportunities to expound on the technology, the universe, its history, the nature of space in and of itself are constantly missed. Obvious holes in logic are used as plot defining characteristics. For example, the use of junk dumped out an airlock as chaff/shrapnel for a tailing ship. This is done several times yet no one had the bright idea to develop a purpose built projectile for exactly that situation? Instead, the heroes just manage to wing and a prayer it to safety. There is no suspense, no twists, not even a close call or two. Its such a boring, trite read.
This book is great if you have no real interest in science fiction. If you want something that actually has depth and detail, go elsewhere. Lastly, the overarching alien story is not original or interesting, it feels like a convenience to allow the author to get in some quippy jokes and phrases. This book was not at all memorable. It is a massive let down from Breakers.

Solidly Okay
The story itself was acceptable, large scale (technically), but the story did not manage to convey that. The narrator struggled with certain voices, but he certainly tried. The narrative flow was pretty consistent but not amazingly surprising. It was alright.
