Publisher's summary

Kyle Riggs is in for a rough ride.

In Annihilation, the seventh book of the Star Force Series, nothing goes as planned. The three fledgling human colonies in the Eden System are beginning to take hold, but the forces threatening to root them out are many. The Crustaceans are calling for help, despite the fact they are the sworn enemies of Star Force. Are they potential allies, or vicious tricksters? And why are the oceans of their world heating up?

Even as Riggs flies out to investigate the situation, more mysteries arise. The Blues are making vague threats, and Earth is suing for peace. Who is to be trusted, and who holds a dagger behind their backs?

Annihilation is a military science fiction novel by best-selling author B. V. Larson. To find the first book in the series, search for Swarm. Annihilation is the longest book in the series so far....

Kicking ass and taking names

This was the warm-up for Battlefield Earth 11. There was plenty of action and space battles for us all. Anyone who doesn't like this one was wrong, wrong, wrong, This was classic Kyle Riggs at his best. The sad part was the death of Sandra. Everyone in the car had a tear in there eye.

Absolutely THE BEST!!!

Among the absolute best story writing and narration. I am so enthralled with this series I haven't been able to wait for my monthly renewal. Every chapter is riveting & the story left me in tears & laughing from one chapter to the next. I just love Marvin too.

LEAVES YOU WANTING MORE!!!

What made the experience of listening to Annihilation the most enjoyable?

This is a great addition to the ongoing saga of Kyle Riggs and Star Force.
As usual Riggs is faced with danger on multiple fronts and this time we suffer a loss of a beloved character, but I can see that what is anticipated in the upcoming adventures would not happen without that loss.
This story is great and leaves you wanting more and more adventures and I'm sure all the listeners can't wait to see the new and impoved Star Force in the future books.
The only problems I have are some mistakes made, either in the writing of the book, or in the reading by Mark Boyett: ie...Commander Becker is refered to as Commadore Becker. A minor issue, but I like attentioin to detail.

A Start of A New Age!!!

Yes, each book before was thought about as a new chapter, but this book did not only end a new chapter with Star Force, but it also started a new age for them.

The first few chapters started well, you have your usual saving some biotics and so on, but that doesn't take much from the book as i was fearing at first. Although the beginning was full of action, what happened next wasn't full of action, but it was still a game changer. And if that wasn't enough, what happend during the end of the book was full of action as usual, and it ended another chapter, but rather than just ending another chapter for Star Force it started a new age for them. I think the next book will be full of events and would love to know what will happen in that one.

New characters are added here, and Marvin still does his weird thing always, and you could feel him growing up this time, which was a bit weird

A good addition to the Star Force series, and lets see whats next.

Another amazing book

This is a book that you will want to listen to from start to finish without touching the pause button. Mark Boyet "the narrator" is amazing as always. Just another reason I love Audible.

Another winner

I love this series, and this book was one of the best so far. In terms of the storyline, it seems like one of the most important for the series.

Great series

Love the worlds and the battles. Riggs is becoming a leader, but still remains a womanizer. Maybe he will grow up and forget about his other brain. The story line does not need that side of him.
