Story
We were fighting on the wrong side of a war we couldn't win. And that was the good news. The Ruhar hit us on Columbus Day. There we were, innocently drifting along the cosmos on our little blue marble, like the native Americans in 1492. Over the horizon come ships of a technologically advanced, aggressive culture, and BAM! There go the good old days, when humans only got killed by each other. So, Columbus Day. It fits. When the morning sky twinkled again, this time with Kristang starships jumping in to hammer the Ruhar, we thought we were saved.

Story
My name is Kazimir Wolfe. People call me "Kaz", except they don’t. I never use my real name; it’s too dangerous, for me and for anyone I meet. I’m on the run from the law, who think I killed my aunt, and from whoever did kill her, because they want to finish the job. So, I move around a lot, working construction or whatever job I can find. It’s a lonely life. I don’t let anyone get close...people who get close to me end up dead. Why? I’m a wizard. The world’s only wizard, as far as I know.

Kaz Wolfe has everything he needs to prevent a Convergence that would allow gods and monsters from the Nether to invade our world. Everything, other than a single clue about what a Convergence is. Or how it works. Or how to stop it. To get answers, he might have to take a fun-filled family road trip to the last place he wants to go: the Netherworld.

Story
The Wizard's Council of Tarador was supposed to tell young Koren Bladewell that he is a wizard. They were supposed to tell everyone that he is not a jinx, that all the bad things that happen around him are because he can't control the power inside him, power he doesn't know about. The people of his village, even his parents, are afraid of him, afraid he is cursed. That he is a dangerous, evil jinx.

Story
From the Audie-nominated narrator of The Martian. In eleven years' time, a million members of an alien race will arrive at Earth. Years before they enter orbit, their approach will be announced by the flare of a thousand flames in the sky, their ships' huge engines burning hard to slow them from the vast speeds needed to cross interstellar space. These foreboding lights will shine in our night sky like new stars, getting ever brighter until they outshine even the sun, casting ominous shadows and banishing the night until they suddenly blink out.

The mission is simple. Escort an emissary to an intergalactic peace summit. Try not to get in the way. Lt. Magnus and his 79th Recon Team have certainly handled worse, after all. But when an explosion rocks the tower and sends everyone into a panic, Magnus and his asset find themselves cut off from the rest of the team. Worse still, a dying alien chieftain gives them a priceless drive of intel, marking them for death. The mission has officially changed. With enemies on all sides, Magnus must do everything in his power to protect the emissary and escape the tower.

Story
Our universe is ruled by physics, and faster-than-light travel is not possible - until the discovery of The Flow, an extradimensional field we can access at certain points in space-time that transports us to other worlds, around other stars. Humanity flows away from Earth, into space, and in time forgets our home world and creates a new empire, the Interdependency, whose ethos requires that no one human outpost can survive without the others. It's a hedge against interstellar war - and a system of control for the rulers of the empire.

Publisher's Summary
The human soldiers stranded on the planet Paradise have been recruited into an alien legion to do the dirty jobs that the high-tech species won't do. Their first mission is to kick the enemy off a backwater planet no one cares about. It's a simple assignment, except everyone has a hidden agenda, and the planet could become a deathtrap.

Clever Story with Great Characters
Really enjoyed hearing the story of the author at the end. He has an inspiring story as well. He pointed out that he has the progression for the series already sussed out and each novel is leading to his finale. You feel like you are in good hands when you hear this.

Another slam dunk from team Alanson and Bray!
Awaiting impatiently for the next one in the series!
RC Bray is a superb narrator for another of Craig Alanson's novels in this epic series! Star Trek and Star Wars...move over for the competition!

An engaging story brought to life by RC Bray
This is one of the standout titles in the Expeditionary Force series, despite being a spin-off from the main storyline.
Mavericks brings back characters from previous novels in intertwining storylines that feel plausible and authentic, and Craig Alanson takes the opportunity to flesh out these characters with more personality, motivation, and backstory. One character in particular has hilarious lines given to him that make sense in-universe, and RC Bray's deadpan voicing of this particular character takes the series' comedy to new heights.
Overall, an easy recommendation for any ExForce fan that sets up some plot lines for future novels.

Another Winner!
Okay, I admit I miss the shiny asshole of a beer can "heh heh heh"...but that said, this was a fun read, but what will it mean to the safety of earth?!?! Intricate story, with laughs and a few tears...another winner in my library...it won't be the last time I pull this audiobook off my proverbial shelf!

Another great production from Alanson and Bray
If you love the Expeditionary Force universe then you'll love this take from a different perspective, of humans and aliens fighting alongside and against each other, in an epic ground battle. It's fun, it's funny, and I can't wait for #2!

Can't Get Enough!
This story line is the best I've read/listened to. Before each new book comes out I re-listen to the series over and each time I can find new details that lead into the next part of the story. Craig Alanson's writing is the true embodiment of the butterfly effect. 10/10. N.W.

Great official spin off.
The first few Skippyless incarnations of Expeditionary Force I was on the fence about as those other titles lacked a solid hook to keep me interested about the plight of the Mavericks characters; however, this first official spin off has finally hit it”s stride. I enjoyed this book a lot, perhaps even more then the last few books with Skippy and Joe.
What this book achieved was solidifying the development and personality of a few characters that has added the secret sauce that was missing without the presence of a certain beer can persona and his stupid monkey friend, and while not quite the same, the banter between a few sets of characters throughout kept me enjoying the whole book.
