In a twist of fate that rocks the Galactic Empire, James McGill finds himself negotiating the future of a thousand inhabited worlds.

An artificial object made of compressed stardust is barreling toward Earth. Is it an invasion ship? A doomsday weapon? Perhaps it’s the final response of Squanto, the Warlord of Rigel who McGill has repeatedly humiliated. Or could it be from the Mogwa, sent to avenge McGill’s assassination of Earth’s Imperial Governor?

No one knows the truth of its origins, but the object is huge and unstoppable. Whoever hurled this rock at us isn’t answering our calls. Every weapon bounces off, and the people of Earth begin to go mad as they realize their destruction is only hours away.

Armor World is the 11th book of the Undying Mercenaries series. With over three million copies sold, author B. V. Larson is the king of modern military science fiction.

After keeping it fresh and moving in unexpected directions in the past couple books, this one seems to go back to the comfortable harbor of the first few books. Sometimes that can be okay, but here, after so many books, it feels like a step back.

I felt my suspension of disbelief was a little abused, and Mary Sue McGill was in full effect. The relationships in the series have been great at developing naturally and I like that for once the book didn't lean on the usual crutch of villain's exposition to info dump everything.

I also feel there was a missed opportunity to explore a couple truly alien environments.

All in all, a mediocre entry into the series.

although enjoyable enough and solid as far as another entry is concerned, I couldn't have been more disappointed by the end. What started out feeling like an attempt to invigorate a slowing story and round out flat characters for 20 chapters quickly devolved into endless sexcapades, Mary Sue levels of plot convince from our favorite big balled plot pushing he-man... and still a level of casual ablism that just feels out of place coming from the insanely talented voice.

Idk if you read these Larson, but if you are, don't feel like I'm calling this novel bad, I have simply read enough of your work to know it can shine past the grime. All I want, is a quiet end to the use of 'retarded' cause it isn't the 90s anymore and you ain't the black eyed peas... and for James to be cheated on or turned down or somehow slapped by karma for his womanizing .. I don't mind a womanizing character, but since where where the women signing up to fight and die the type to sniffle and run away when cheated on? You show you can write realistic women, now have James fuck one.

Was better than the last book. However I do feel like this is becoming automatic for the author. Would be coll. If he went in a totally unexpected direction. Series is becoming episodic.

Another solid entry in the undying mercenaries

I have been enjoying this series, love the respawning hero theme! B.V. Larson has quite the imagination!
Recommended!

Good as usual

I feel like this book could’ve been several chapters in a better story. Although I’ve been pretty loyal to the series, this was so dry and predictable. It echoed too closely so many of the previous books. I think this will be my last one.
