About this listen
Four complete books of explosive, military sci-fi action complete the entire first arc of the best-selling Drop Trooper series.
Go to war or go to jail. For small-time street hustler Cam Alvarez, the choice is simple....
He has no family, no friends, no place in the world...nothing to lose. When his latest con results in the death of a cartel hit man, Cam opts to join the Marines and leave Earth to fight a vicious alien enemy.
Drafted into the Marine Drop-Troopers, Cam discovers there’s one thing he’s even better at than running street-con games, and that’s killing the enemy. Wrapped in an armored battlesuit, Cam finds purpose amid the horror and destruction of the war, and the opportunity for a new sort of friends and family...if he can break the habits of a life spent alone, trusting no one.
And if he can survive....
Buy this special edition omnibus to experience a thrilling and unpredictable military sci-fi adventure! It's perfect for fans of JN Chaney, Jay Allan, and Joshua Dalzelle.
Books included in the set:
- Book 1: Contact Front

Its goal to augment humans into cyborg fighting machines; mechanized warriors sent to hold the front lines against an enemy that was storming a hundred worlds. Yet few wished to undergo the brutal process, and so criminals were used, their minds enslaved by control chips and obedience enforced through discipline.

As a sci-fi author with a hit TV show, I have a few ideas about what alien invaders are supposed to look like. In my stories, they’re technologically advanced monsters, with tentacles, and no faces. Turns out I was right about the technology. And about how angry they’d be. But the way they look…that’s more terrifying than even I could have imagined. They look exactly like us. Because they are us.

In a world full of super powers, Felix has a pretty crappy one. He has the ability to modify any item he owns. To upgrade anything. Sounds great on paper. Almost like a video game. Except that the amount of power it takes to actually change, modify, or upgrade anything worthwhile is beyond his abilities. With that in mind, Felix settled into a normal life. A normal job. His entire world changes when the city he lives in is taken over by a super villain. Becoming a country of one city. A city state.

She's unlike any one or any thing else: a Non-Standard Leashed-Intelligence Cybernetic Enforcer aka NSLICE-00P. The first of her kind, she's let loose into a universe of superheroes on behalf of her sinister masters to destroy all who oppose them. And everything's going according to plan—until NSLICE-00P gets hacked and sent into the past to kill her own creator before he creates her. Obeying orders as always, she wastes the poor guy. Unfortunately, there are consequences to initiating a reality-breaking time paradox. The most significant: total ejection from that reality.

Sci-fi at its finest
This collection of books is very good. The characters are engaging and show growth, so you really care about them. It balances the harsh reality of war through drama, action and trauma, spiced up with some grimdarkness here and there. A must listen!

Excellent series
Characters and story are very engaging. Narration was very good. I am not a high sci fi fan but this series is much more than that and the explanation of the tech is just enough.

Worth it
I've listened to alot of this style of military Sci Fi and I'd rate this in the top 5 I've enjoyed in the past. Lots of good character development with the main protagonist,, and it wasn't all shoot shoot,, stab stab,, boom. My previous listen was sooo full of that,, it should have been a super hero comic.
I would have liked a bit more background on the enemy, and their motives, but, maybe that would have bogged down the story pace... Narrator did a good job,,, with only a slight change of vocal inflection, he really brought several characters to life. I may listen to this one again in the not too distant future.

Rick partlow is amazing at creating a world that draws you in with action and dramatic twists and he doesn’t hold his punches. People he makes you care about will die. One of the best sci fi writers I’ve ever had the pleasure of listening to and an amazing narrator to go along with it.

Good military sci-fi
This 4 book set was well worth the money. A continuation of the Holy Wars series but told from a different perspective. Good characters and story. Narrator told a story rather than read a book to you.
There’s more than 4 books however you can read these 4 books and feel like you finished the story.

It has it's ups and downs.
Not a terrible listen and it held my attention. The main character does tend to whine a bit for my taste. Suck it up and get the job done or wallow in self doubt and follow the guy in front. Pick one.
The story falls back on the military novel cliche that politicians and incompetents run the military. Sad that so many stories slide into that mud pit. The best stories are where capable and competent people fight through a tough situation to come out on top. Let's face facts. If the organization wasn't coordinated and the troops capable, they would probably not win the day.
