À propos de cet audio

Lieutenant Kiera Markov is a scout platoon leader for a peacekeeping force on the remote planet of Tanara, where little has happened for decades, and the only mission is to keep the lithium flowing up the space elevator to feed the galaxy’s incessant demand. But when an unprecedented attack kills the entirety of the brigade’s leadership, the untested lieutenant suddenly finds herself in command.

Isolated and alone, Markov must contend with rival politicians on both sides of the border, all of whom have suspect motives and reason to take advantage of an untested leader, while an unseen enemy seeks to drive the two sides toward a war that Markov has a mission to prevent. It’s enough to test even a seasoned leader.

Markov isn’t that.

With challenges from all sides, and even from her own troops, Markov will have to learn quickly and establish her authority. Because what hangs in the balance is not only the future of the peacekeeping force, but of the planet itself.

It's a good time. It is a military sci-fi but I thought more of a drama than an action one. It doesn't suffer for that though, the characters and setting are good, and there is still an enjoyable amount of action in the right places. It's fast paced and easy to listen to. Thematically it's about someone having to rise to leadership in a crisis and how they approach that, which was done in a satisfying and compelling way. If you're familiar with Michael Mammay's other books I think it's less heavy, serious, and noir than the Planetside series can be, but not quite as light as "The Misfit Soldier", so a good balance. Worth the time.

fast paced, fun, compelling
