De: Jeremy Spires

Narrado por: Garrett Michael Brown

The human civil war has ended.

Vandorian and Phelb have united under one flag once more, and peace now rules the human empire. But ancient enemies still exist in the galaxy, and they are unhappy about the new peace. Buoyed by victories against the Gilbaglians, humans boldly assault their new foes while seeking out more knowledge about the mysterious Cetoplin race that appears to have inadvertently created humanity.

But darkness is spreading, even as the light of human compassion spreads, the darkness of wars past threatens to engulf the galaxy once more.

Enjoyed and well done!

I have not listened to a Sci-fi book before.
This very enjoyable listen was a excellent intro.
Garrett Brown is a gifted narrator, his many and varied voices show a true gift to story telling and made this book truly a wonderful listen.
Jeremy Spires congrats on this book! Well done!

The thrilling conclusion

With the human civil war finally over, the forces of Humanity United can finally turn thier sights on the greater enemy, the birdlike races of genocidal aliens that had been thier enemy since before we even evolved. But can even a united humanity come out victorious against an enemy millions of years old?

What a ride

This book was a great follow up from shockwave. I lobe this univers and the irreverent tone. the voice actor is perfect! keep them coming!!

Lot of action

I chose to read this book after receiving a free audio copy from the narrator. All opinions in this review are my own and completely unbiased.

I didn’t read the first book, but it wasn’t necessary. The author gave enough back story that I wasn’t lost at all. I like some sci-fi but there are times that there are so many alien races and odd names to keep up with that it’s too distracting. What’s funny is that there are several alien races in this book, but I was able to keep up with them. The author did a great job! I also like his sense of humor. Although there were times that there was quite a bit of violence, the protagonist often had something snarky to say which lightened the mood.

Garrett Brown, the narrator, also did a great job. He has the perfect voice for narration and even though he’s just starting out, he sounds like a seasoned professional. He has good pacing and he changes his voice just enough for the different characters in the story.

I definitely recommend Requiem of a Nightmare, and I may have to go back and read the first book.

Amazing book from an awesome author.

I can't wait to see where the Valentine's go next, and how Desota gets into trouble. The only bad thing is waiting for the next book.
