Publisher's summary

Start as a RECRUIT...become a SUPER-SOLDIER...end up a GALACTIC WARLORD.

Don your armor, load up on ammo, and get ready for your combat training. You don't become a badass by signing on the dotted line, you gotta earn it the hard way...same goes for your team. You have to learn to fight, how to work together, and how to lose...for the ancient origins of humanity on Earth are dark, devastating, and destined to return. Earth is going to lose, and lose badly when our time is up, but out of the ashes of defeat, we may be able to scrounge up a future if you and the other future warlords can learn how to overcome the losses and turn them to our advantage.

And the one advantage we have is the repository of ancient knowledge left behind when our former masters abandoned Earth during a civil war. They assume everyone died, but a few human slaves remained and now we live only because of that mistake.

But they didn't just make one. Their second was leaving the most heavily defended and valuable building on the planet intact because destroying it along with the others when they bugged out would be too time-consuming. Instead, they buried it and now we have limited access to the advanced technology and database inside. From it we know the truth about our ancestry, as well as the superhuman powers they laced into our genome...and because of those powers, any human not under their direct control carries with them an automatic death sentence.

So when we're found out, we're all going to die...unless you and your team can grow into the war leaders we need, figure out how to use the ancient technology as well as those who created it, and find a way to do the impossible and overcome a galactic empire millions of years old. An empire known as the V'kit'no'sat, which Earth hilariously misinterpreted as a group of extinct animals called the Dinosaurs.

I love this series!!

This one started out with a fun surprise with seeing another viewpoint of Star Force and the ADZ it has built and then allowed to prosper. With it being from a civilian who is caught up in something beyond her. But she will make a friend near the top of the empire.
Unfortunately, it is followed by the discovery of a way of life that must be wiped from existence. But within its ashes, new secrets of ancient origins will come to light… in more than one aspect. But Star Force is an even brighter light and ready to burn the infection out. With several witnesses, Star Force brings justice to innocents and giving future generations a chance to thrive!

The narrator isn’t the worse I have heard but the errors and quality isn’t the greatest… And I don’t know who is the one that puts the final production together.

Can’t get enough of Star Force

The only thing I see that would make the audio books is better editing.

What I am talking about is repeating phrases.

I get the feeling that the narrator stopped for a break and restarted by repeating the last thing he/she (it has been the same throughout the series) said before taking a break.

Star Force is one of the best universe that I have ever listened to since the battle tech universe in 1989 ish.

Thank you for all the hours of enjoyment that I have received and will continue to enjoy.

great story, worst narrator ever.

Narrstor slurs his words so much its hard to understand. Lots of repeats and mispronounciations

Spoiler: “gays”=“dysfunctional citizens”

Within the first few minutes of the audiobook the author makes it a point to say there were no “dysfunctional citizens” listing “...cutters, anorexics, gays, addicts...”. I’d love to hear an explanation as to why being gay is a dysfunction in a society where the military elites don’t procreate and have sex only as a method to train so as not to have a weakness, and where the children and parents don’t know each other. Without the “zealots” there’s no issue in being gay, especially when procreation is artificial and the family unit is no more. Scientifically speaking there is no distinction between sexual orientations in terms of merit and ability, so the idea that sexuality would even be an issue in such a universe is illogical.
