Kazz is a genuine Neanderthal and Philemon is an apish proto-human, two thugs with priceless information to sell to the highest alien bidder. But first they have to get off this backward planet. They hijack Logan's Guard ship, needing it to crack an ancient alien structure at the bottom of the Arctic Ocean, believing it will provide them the ticket out of here. What they don't know is that the structure holds a terrifying alien prisoner that could doom the human race to eternal servitude - and if they did know, they wouldn't care.

The main A.I. brain-core has just given human extinction top priority. The robots are massing an armada to exterminate us. We’ve done what we could in expectation of this grim day, grabbing enemy factory planets to mass produce warships. And we found an ally, the Star Lords of Roke. But it’s just not enough, damn it.

Can we now defeat an interstellar superpower that has exterminated thousands of sentient races across the galaxy and slaughtered billions of us in the solar system? Not bloody likely, but Captain Jon Hawkins is on a mission. Using new warships from the factory planet, he’s searching for alien allies, more battle stations to storm, and death machines to kill. He’s buying us time to turn the solar system into a fortress...if he can stay alive long enough.

After endless years of fighting in a galaxy-wide war, the most decorated super-soldier of the Old Federation was granted leave, sliding into a stasis tube aboard a sleeper ship. The ship never reached its port, and the soldier woke up a thousand years later on an operating table. The Old Federation was gone, most planets hurled back into the Stone Age. A devastated Earth used spies instead of spaceships to compete against the tougher, richer worlds.

After years of agonizing toil and hardship, we have finally built a first-rate fleet, forcing our hostile neighbors to accept our freedom. But in the center of the galaxy, a bitterly vengeful woman discovers the secret of the Plutonians. She is going to awaken them so the extraterrestrials can attack us with the deadliest ships in existence. If the Plutonians destroy our fleet, the others will surely swarm in like locusts and kill us.

Publisher's Summary
The Galactics quarantined Earth. But the last Guard agent died. Logan found his stealth ship, and now it's his job to enforce Galactic law against alien predators.
Lord Beran the Antaran regards humans as little better than insects to stomp if they get in his way. He's searching for the lost Polarions, last seen on this backward planet thousands of years ago.
There are alien relics hidden under the ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica. Lord Beran wants those, even if uncovering them will unleash a stellar holocaust.
Unless Logan can stop the Antaran, whose superscience seems like magic to us mere humans, the universe is about to find out why the Galactic Guard first quarantined Earth.
The Antaran is the third book in the Invaders Series, a novel of science fiction adventure by best-selling author Vaughn Heppner.
The series starts with book 1, Invaders.

Fun book. Fun series.
This is another listen that went by too fast. This is an almost non-stop action book. There's also lots of humor that goes along with the action. I love the characters. Can't wait until the next book comes out. #Sci-Fi #Action #Humor #Tagsgiving #Sweepstakes

Unbelieveably bad and illogical
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
Absolutely nothing can save this. I'm not even sure if the author intended a parody of an alien invasion novel or not.
What about Christian Rummel’s performance did you like?
One of my favorite narrators, I loved his performance in the Lost Fleet series.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Self disgust that I insulted my credit card.

Overall series is good. However, main character Logan tends to be a little whiny and immature in his actions not listening to things that he should but otherwise a pretty good story.

Rich story, annoying narrator, odd end
The story is great - lots of action, unexpected events and situations. The narrator - has a great secondary voice, but his default/main voice sounds to me pretty annoying. By now I got used to it (so far I've listen him in 3 books).
The end of the book is odd. Very unexpected...

Just not very good
Is there anything you would change about this book?
I like the author and the narrator, but the characters are just so "dumb". It's like it was written by a new author. The characters do and say the stupidest things....
Has The Antaran turned you off from other books in this genre?
No
What about Christian Rummel’s performance did you like?
He reads great. He can't control the material....
Do you think The Antaran needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
they should have ended it with them all blowing up..
Any additional comments?
I just can't do another book in this series.

the story is good and enjoyable but I have no idea why the author decided on this book to talk about "don't tread on me" flag and how Mexicans and middle easterners are crowding the ER's . the first two books are awesome but this one, the author decided to share his racist and close minded views. thank you for messing up such a good story.

Awful
I am a Heppner fan and have read all his books. I have to say this is the worst. The story drags along in infinite complexity spattered with feats of science that are not well explained. The villains change and the development of each is either uneccesarily long or ridiculously short. After listening for hours to a story that seemingly goes nowhere, an amazing amount of ground is covered (poorly) in the last ten minutes. It is as if the author got tired of the story and decided to race along and make great leaps so as to close it all out. Not well thought out, nor presented well. Rummel is a great performer, but Heppner really blew it on this one.
