About this listen

The Galactics arrived with their Battle fleet in 2052. Rather than being exterminated under a barrage of hell-burners, Earth joined a vast Empire that spans the Milky Way. Our only worthwhile trade goods are our infamous mercenary legions, elite troops we sell to the highest alien bidder.

In 2122 a lost colony expedition contacts Earth, surprising our government. Colonization is against Galactic Law, and Legion Varus is dispatched to the system to handle the situation. Earth gave them sealed orders, but Earth is 35 lightyears away. The Legion commanders have a secret plan of their own. And then there's James McGill, who was never too good at listening to authority in the first place....

In Dust World, book two of the Undying Mercenaries Series, McGill is promoted to Specialist and sent to a frontier planet outside the Empire. Earth's status within the Empire will never be the same.

Surprising expansion of story arc!

The author takes a bold leap forward in expanding the undying mercenary universe. With surprising and unexpected developments in Earth's role in the galaxy, while maintaining a mysterious shroud of galactic empire politics. Masterful universe building with unabashed creativity. Narration is top tier.

A great Action, Sci-fi romp

Entertaining with lots of action. Bits of humor thrown into the mixture. Narrator has a great voice but speaks a bit slowly so I just sped up the playback. Downloading book 3 right now.

Fantastic

Dust World is a fantastic continuation of the story set up in Steel World. It's a great mix of action and humor, and doesn't take itself too seriously, but it's not exactly a comedy. Plenty of action and sci-fi concepts. If you enjoyed Steel World, you'll love this and be hooked on the rest of the series.

Great narrator, plot not so much

Great narrator, protagonist felt like a Gary Stu character with the constant sexualization of every female character.
