The Deal

The Renegade, Book 2

De: J. N. Chaney

Narrado por: Luke Daniels

No one ever said being a Renegade was easy.

When Jace Hughes accepts a job to capture and transport a wanted criminal, he doesn’t expect any problems. But when a family of smugglers assassinate his mark right before his eyes, he’s left to pick up the pieces and salvage what he can of the job.

Unfortunately, the real trouble has only just begun. Turns out, the mark has powerful family, and they just happen to be the galaxy’s most famous Renegade. Now, Jace is forced to face off against one of his own in a battle for his life, but our boy didn’t come this far to get gunned down and fail.

Jace Hughes is a Renegade, and he’ll do everything it takes to keep it that way.

More fun with The Renegade

Not as good as Renegade Star but a fun story and finally we got the story behind the cloak of the ship. Still if it wasn't for Luke Daniels this woud not be as good he kind of translate the characters so you cant stop listening.

A little formulaic

JN Chaney prose is still very good but this book in the series bears too many similarities to book 1 to garner the same appeal than that of book 1. Essentially, Jace begrudgingly takes on some noobs in order to survive the pursuit of an overpowering enemy. The various encounters were written well but, again, they had a similar feel to how they were handled. As far as his companions, their backstories were a bit simplistic and lacked enough personal development to make them all that interesting.

Luke Daniels' performance is top-notch as expected and I especially liked his Jack Nicholson-like imitation used for one of his youthful companions.

So much fun

Great book and great narration. I always look forward to Renegade books or anything else Chaney is attached to. Next up is Wayward Galaxy.

Took awhile to get but satisfying ending.

The story at first seem point less but it made sense at the end. Lockwood was consumed by pride and lost because of it. What annoyed me were the loud breaths Luke would take for half the book. Besides that I've enjoyed this origin series.

Please sir, can I have another?

Seriously, love these books! Hope there's more, but this ends close to where Renegade Star begins, so if we never get another, then that's still okay. Thanks for the fun!
