Wizard scouts are the elite, deep-recon forces of the Intergalactic Empire. They are a mix of technology and magic-like abilities.
Richard has been given a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to become one of these legendary soldiers. All he has to do is make it through the Wizard Scout Academy. But with a TAC officer who hates his guts, will he even be allowed to graduate? To make matters worse, the Empire has been attacked and soon finds itself in a major war. With heavy losses in the wizard scout corps, even the Academy cadets are starting to look good to the Empire's High Command.
Just when Richard thinks things can't get any worse, he is suddenly sent by "the One" to help a beautiful elf priestess fight a demon and its army of undead. Wizard scouts may be the best of the best, but Richard is still a cadet in training. Will his skills and technology be enough to overcome dragons, demons, trolls, ghouls, and various undead from his worst nightmare? With only the aid of his battle computer, Nickelo, and the magic of an elf priestess, will his wizard scout abilities be enough to turn the tide?
With the fate of two galaxies riding in the balance, Richard is honor bound to do his best in spite of the odds. The question is, will his best be good enough?

Characters are pretty undeveloped, though that's common for military fiction. The narrator made the book listenable .The snarky AI in the combat armor helmet was just plain juvenile. I won't follow the series.
Unfulfilled potential

The biggest notice is Rodney calling gun magazines "Clips" if you know guns then you laugh a bit or maybe cringe every time they say it. I look forward to listening to the rest of the series though!
Magazines not clips

Despite those minor complaints I have already bought book 2 and if it is as good as this one I will be pleased.
Edit: I have listened to the next 3 books in the series and enjoyed each book more than the last, so if you're into Sci-fi / Fantasy like Star Wars but with a bit more fantasy to it you will love this series.
Better than I expected

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes. Initially concerned it would be yet another inexperienced hero learning the ropes. Although that was the case it was handled deftly, with enough 'outside the box' storyline it wasn't an issue. Character development was paced nicely, along with the story.What did you like best about this story?
Many things: the integration of science and magic, the different threads, the interaction between the hero and his battle computer, and much more.What does Guy Williams bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I have read negative reviews about Guy, and I have to admit that sometimes his over-clarity of enunciation ( I'm sure there's a correct term for that!) was jarring, but he characterised and brought personality to all major players. I thoroughly enjoyed his style, tone, injection of seriousness and humour, and overall performance. His depiction of Nic is particularly enjoyable. I would listen to him again.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The build up to many scenarios was tension-filled, to the point I had to take a break! In a good way! Some situations I could not see a solution to, but a plausible solution presented itself nonetheless.Any additional comments?
Worthwhile read. Some frustrations, but these eventually make sense and add to the plots.Terrific, entertaining story, just finished Book 3
