Publisher's summary

Get this 32-hour box set of pure kickass military sci-fi - a thrill ride combining space opera and first contact!

Terminal Lance Lucky Lee Savage likes his life. Sure, doing PT hungover is a pain, but no one can dodge responsibility like he can - or sweet-talk the cooks into giving out double rations.

But when Lucky’s ambushed behind enemy lines and left for dead, along with a handful of privates so boot they actually respect his authority, he has to step up, manage the ambitions of his foul-mouthed AI, and figure out what’s tearing a hole in the fabric of space-time before everything goes haywire.

Lucky wouldn’t bet on the universe. One thing he will bet on: Somewhere, somehow, somebody is going to pay for all this. And he is going to be right there to pull the trigger.

If you like Aliens and Firefly, you'll love this funny, gritty, and endlessly entertaining series!

Great fun book

This was a very fun book with a lot of different twists that I haven’t heard of in other books it was refreshing for somebody to step outside of the normal side by box and be creative.

Fun


My biggest issue with this story was trying to understand the armor these characters wear. Like sometimes it comes accoss like Spartan armor from Halo, then sometimes its like a vac suit with a chest plate. And how does the armor deal with the masive amout of damage these charcters take? Is the armor also regenerative and i just missed that explanation?
Other than all that I had fun with this story.

AI much?

I really liked Lucky's AI, Rocky. Her subsequent versions not so much. I liked the interaction between Rocky and L ucky. Th a t's where the where the satirical wit is.

am I supposed to care about them

to start the voice actor isn't strictly bad there's moments on inflection and nuance to the voice but it never seems to reach what it needs too. as for the story I can't seem to tell I'm supposed to care about who these people are. I get that we have a main character but the way he hates himself and everything going on its hard to really care what's happening to him.

Lucky is lucky

Great way to dissappear in the future. Syfi keeps me moving. My way to deal with cancer recovery. Thank you so much for entertainment.

Repeat

The stories have a lot of repeating scenes. They seem to be only fillers to pad the narrative and therefore extend the story length.
