Acerca de esta escucha
Being tortured isn’t fun at all…
…especially when it’s your ex-flame attaching the battery cables to you. For Captain Brad Mendoza, his month has gone from bad to worse, and now all anyone seems interested in is the galaxy-changing secret that’s rattling around in his brain. Whoever breaks Brad can build an empire that will rival anything else in the Fringe!
But across the Republic, Jessica Lin survived the attempt to take her life, and she’s hunting the evil men and woman who have kidnapped her captain. Armed only with a damaged ship seized from pirates, she must use her wits and a lot of luck to gather a ragtag crew capable of finding and rescuing Brad from the vile mercenaries that hold him captive.
Joining her on her quest are Hayley Uvalde, an enigmatic and fast-talking intelligence expert who changes names as often as hair colors, Quinn Boyd, a special forces washout with an unhealthy love of explosives, and Harris, everyone’s favorite makeup artist turned mercenary. Together, they’ll race against a ticking clock to find Brad before he gives up his secret, dies, or likely both.
The fourth and longest installment thus far in the favorite Dumb Luck and Dead Heroes series, The Worst Rescuers in the Republic picks up where The Worst Pirate Hunters in the Fringe left off and takes listeners through a twisting and turning science fiction military adventure with a little humor—and a lot of dumb luck—mixed in. Part hard sci-fi and part space opera. Listen to the series that is delighting fans worldwide!

Historia
When a battleship and its escorts mysteriously disappear near a contested area of space, they leave no clues behind, and their own Navy is preparing for war and can’t spare the resources to find them. Which wouldn’t really matter to ex-Navy Captain Brad Mendoza. He finally has all he ever wanted: a ship, a crew, and the most beautiful woman in the galaxy as his girlfriend. Seriously, can life get any better? But that’s when Carla Mendoza, his ex-wife, appears, begging Brad for help to find the missing task force and its flag captain, the man she left Brad for.

For four centuries, the Order of the King’s Cross has worked in the shadows to protect Promethean society. Known only to the King and his closest advisors, the agents of the Order carry out their monarch’s will throughout the Federated Planets and their neighboring star nations, cleaning up messes, investigating heinous crimes, and most often, eliminating threats. Heather Kilgore is one of the deadliest agents the Order has ever trained. Young, focused, and coldly efficient, the King sends her in when all else has failed.

Historia
When a magical plague is released in a Depression-era New York soup kitchen, private detective Alex Lockerby finds himself in a desperate hunt to catch a madman before he can strike again. His investigations lead Alex to a famous thief, a daring heist, and the search for a mythic book of ancient magic, but none of that brings him any closer to finding the man responsible for the massacre. With the police and New York’s Council of Sorcerers desperate to find the culprit, Alex becomes a suspect himself, thanks to his ties to the priest who ran the soup kitchen.

Historia
For years, pilots who merely looked like soldiers were adequate. They filled the mechs. They filled roles. They supported Spann and his genetic offshoot of pure-blooded warriors known as the Superba. Spann's dream of absolute power ends with a single, crushing blow as a new enemy strikes at the Realm, leaving no survivors—followed by a mad dash to find fighters who can stand up in the old ways, using the mechs gifted to humanity by their oldest allies. Even in the midst of war, there is hope.
