Wholesale Slaughter

His people are plagued by pirates and raiders, surrounded by enemies, and not even his father can fight them all. Logan gives up his position, his rank, even his name, and becomes Jonathan Slaughter, leader of a rough-and-ready band of mercenary mech-jocks bent on taking the battle to the enemy on their own terms.

Awesome book

Excellent characters and plot. The technology works for the world and there is a good mix of action, space, mech and infantry. Great world building and characters.

I was kind of expecting another 'Dad gets killed, son escapes to carry on the fight' kind of story but that wasn't what this was. I'm now curious about the Jeuta and other governments. An excellent start to what should prove an interesting series.

Marc Vietor also does an admirable job narrating.

I'm really looking forward to the other books.

Sci-fi military greatness

First, I have to start off by stating that I got this book free of charge in exchange for a review, but as I always state, this does not in any way impact my review. My reviews are always honest and my own.

This book has the proper amount of action, adventure, drama, and romance (yes, I said it) in it. This is going to be a great series because the crew has a long way yet to go and they will be fighting pirates and who knows what else, the whole way.
If you enjoy an interesting military storyline with lots of action and great characters then this is the series for you. The characters and action are believable.


The tech system is easy to follow and despite how it might seem early in the book, no one is overpowered. There are no exp here, just tec points used for leveling.

Overall, this is a fun book in a genre I love. At times it is a slice of life, but never for long. The story arc is one that has great potential for future volumes, and I’m interested to see where he takes it. If the Reality Benders series wasn’t out, this would leap into my number one sci-fi game lit spot.

Heavy on the battle scene details

The performance is top notch. The story is good if you don't mind ones heavy on the details of each battle. Some can go on for multiple chapters.

Don't Judge It By The Title

I passed over this book a few times because of the title but it continued to appear in my recommendation list. I took a closer look and decided to give it a try. I'm glad I did. This is an excellent book, balanced with action, story line, world building and character development. I highly recommend it.

Action packed from start to finish.

This book was action from cover to cover. Almost too much action. I felt like I never got a second to breath and feel safe. Normally all that action would be perfect, but I think it may have been overkill. All in all though, good book. I enjoyed all the terminology, which helps submerge me in the world and Sgt. Slaughter is just cool, period.

At my request, I received this audiobook in exchange for an honest review.
