Publisher's summary

Kyle Riggs has been away from Earth for a long time.... What’s happening back home? In Empire, the sixth book of the Star Force Series, the story moves in a new direction.

Earth falls quiet, and the few reports coming out of the homeworld are increasingly strange. Isolated in the Eden system, Riggs realizes his enemies are forming an alliance against him. Crushed between two monstrous fleets, the last defenders of Star Force must forge their own alliance with the biotic aliens. But which alien race can Riggs truly trust?

Action, fun action

I highly recomend that this whole series be listened to. It is escapist, action packed fun. It could make a great movie series.

Most recent in a great series - more to come?

This is the most recent in a series of six books. The whole series is packed with action and adventure. Our main hero takes on villains from all sides. Throw in a few characters you're not sure how to classify and you have a real roller coaster ride through space. Start with Swarm, the first book, and you'll be hooked.

the saga continues

the story grows ever more complicated but the one thing that remains the same is the added value that the narrator does with all of these voices which is really pretty good in my opinion

Too Many Things Happened Here!!!

First of all let me talk about the narration: its the same as before BUT, there is a faint echo you can hear from time to time during the narration. but its not that big of a deal, its just disturbing ...

Lets talk about the book itself: it was a really good one. Too many things happened in this book, to many changes and a good amount of twists. What I like about this one is that so many actions in it.... not a much of chat time and not doing anything, which is a good thing here.

When i saw this book available in audible i stopped what i was listening to and start reading / listening to this one. ... i just can't believe how far it has been and how many changes happened since the first book.

Enjoy!!!!
