Valkyrie Rising

De: Evan Currie

Narrado por: Dina Pearlman

Two years after the initial invasion of Hayden's World, the newly reinforced Hayden Militia is in a state of stalemate with the remaining enemy forces, but neither side is content to leave things at that. The alien alliance has dispatched their varsity to clean up the resistance on Hayden while the USF has officially activated Task Force V, the latest and most advanced combat ships built by humans. In the end there are some things you decide in the skies, but some can be settled only in the mud.

Valkyrie Rising is the sequel to On Silver Wings and book two of Warrior's Wings.

Great Listen

Liked it as well as the first one. I even thinking about buying the next one instead of waiting on the next credit.

Now that's what I'm talking about

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

A really great read. Maybe not the greatest sci fi, but fast paced, engaging characters, and one of the few books that I couldn't fall asleep listening to.

What did you like best about this story?

The characters seemed true to life; like the people I met during my time in the USMC. Not a lot of whining, like in the Crimson Planet, and not a lot of repetition to fill out the time. And yes I like the main character, she's a very credible warrior.

Which scene was your favorite?

The battle at the end of the book. Even allowing for fighting against aliens and the hi-tech equipment the description of battle seemed very well thought out and quite believable.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Even better the second time!

Any additional comments?

Dina Perelman has really become one of my favorite readers. I can rely on her to make the words understandable, while still conveying drama. I am continually impressed at how well she handles both technical as well as combat descriptions. When her voice comes on I can just settle back for a comfortable ride. When I replay a section its not because I didn't understand what she read, but because I wanted to hear hear tell the story again. You go girl!.

Very well done

This series is one of the best series I have heard in a very long time. the character development is rich and well thought out I recommend this series highly

Culture clash.

A good follow through from book one , bringing the alien rationale clearly to the front.
Dina Pearman once again does a superb job on the narrative. She breaths life into the story as she becomes the people in the story.
If you enjoy Science Fiction then this series is a must have.
Evan Currie great job.

"Great Listen"

Would you listen to Valkyrie Rising again? Why?

Yes. It's a Great Book

Who was your favorite character and why?

In all ways Aida, book 2 is much improved over Book 1. The author seemed to put extra effort into making her more human and less arrogant; all the while upgrading her battle capabilities significantly. She is now part of another spec ops insertion team on Hayden and up against a ruthless sentient enemy combat team. They are the elite of their federation.

Which character – as performed by Dina Pearlman – was your favorite?

Aida
