De: G. J. Ogden

Narrado por: Doug Tisdale Jr.

Get all five books in the Star Scavenger Series for one low price. A massive 29 hours of thrilling space opera adventure with the mystery and action of Indiana Jones.

From book one:

Hudson Powell had always been a drifter, but after his father died, he vowed to turn his life around. He quit freelancing as a starship pilot and joined the Relic Guardian Force as a 38-year-old rookie.

That was a big mistake.

The RGF police the alien wrecks that have been found on every portal world discovered in the last century. They make sure the relic hunters pay taxes on the priceless alien tech they scavenge from the hulks. The snag is that the RGF is corrupt. And Hudson’s training officer Logan Griff is the worst scumbag of the lot.

Pushed over the edge, Hudson stumbles upon the exhilarating world of the relic hunters and meets the equally intoxicating and deadly mercenary Tory Bellona.

Cast out from the RGF, Hudson Powell chooses a new path. But the discovery of a unique alien crystal will set events in motion that cannot be undone. People stopped asking where the alien hulks had come from. People stopped asking who created the portals, and why.

Hudson will discover that some alien relics are best left buried. One decision can change the course of an entire civilization. One discovery can change your life.

If you love space sci-fi like Firefly and Stargate blended with the mystery and adventure of Indiana Jones, you’ll love the Star Scavenger series. Begin listening to this thrilling five-book saga today.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Readers looking for a wild west adventure that replaces horses with spaceships and frontier towns with dangerous, ghetto-like planets will find much to enjoy in Guardian Outcast." (Readers' Favorite, 5-Star Review)

DESPITE everything, it was enjoyable

The story itself is really fun and interesting, but the writing relies on a lot on the authors favorite words and/or phrases. I could play a drinking game around the number of times the word DESPITE comes up. It also has a lot of the same foils multiple times in each book, which just gets old. The characters all have their own life and spirit, and are really well-defined, but the narrator is problematic. He has a high nasaly voice, so when he tries to do a nasaly voice, or any kind of voice, it's just hardl to listen to. I think the story is top notch but there's so many issues with everything else that I just can't give it 4*
If you can buy it on sale, it's a really good series with a lot of fantastic world-building and characters, but it also lacks in other things that make it hard to fully enjoy.

My first space opera read.

Pretty good. Had a slow start but after the first book, I couldn't really stop. after this paved the way for me, I'm looking for the next alspace opera to read, hoping it will be as good as this one.

A fun time by all.

An absolutely fun romp. Great characters and the narrator made the story come alive. A great series for my library.

Pretty Good

I didn't buy 5 books for 1 credit expecting Tolkien, Asimov or Jordan. It was a great story for those wanting to just be entertained and swept away in a story. Two things bother me in this series. The author continues in all his books to use the word disorientated. Is it allowed??? Is it a real word?? Yes, unfortunately. To switch between that and disoriented is awful and to use a word like that repeatedly...... ouch. Then, the narrator, please try not to TRY so hard. The author described a character's voice as monotone and robotic, and from that point on you changed their voice to the extreme. And when someone is whiny you don't have to exaggerate SO much.

Other than those nitpicky things. I enjoyed it.

space and beyond

love has no boundaries - Indian Jones meets Buzz lightyear. this is a series

Annoying characters, but moderately enjoyable.

I bought the five book series for a single credit, so I can't complain too much. I just started the third book, so there's something that's keeping me here, but not sure what it is, aside from boredom. The main character annoys me. Bounty hunters, hitmen, 'Relic Hunters' are all coming after him again and again trying to kill him, and yet he refuses to use lethal force. All the characters are underdeveloped, and shallow.

This was good

I found myself routing for good guys and hoping Grif would die horribly and painfully.

If you are into lawful good protagonist

While I don't think this book is bad. I am not into protagonist who knows his enemy will backstab him yet spare his life which will end up in another backstab. Great premise and world building though.

Spoiled!

Yes, I'm spoiled when I think that 30 hours of audio is not enough. This series was great. Great writing, great narration, great characters, with non stop action.
Plus, the complete series in one. What more can you ask for.
This audio was given to me free and I voluntarily gave this review.

What a amazing ride!

I truly enjoyed the series, it had a solid premise great characters and lots of surprises. The narrator did a great job with the characters, and bringing the players to life.
Totally worth the credits!!
