The remnants of the Expeditionary Force stranded on the alien-controlled planet "Paradise" get a chance to prove themselves, in a simple off-world training mission with a ship full of teenage alien cadets.

When the mission goes horribly wrong and the survival of everyone on Paradise is at risk, the Merry Band of Pirates may have to come to the rescue. Unless they get killed first....

A very enjoyable new addition to the series ties together the threads of the Merry Band and the crew on Paradise. We are introduced to new aliens, see the Mavericks through an exciting voyage and very well imagined details of space combat, revisit an old stomping ground, and have more hilarious episodes with the famous beer can. A real page turner.

Another excellent outing for the merry band

I’m not going to say much about the story other than it was fun and cool to see the development of the personal relationships. But, the performance by R.C. Bray deserves an enthusiastic salute! I’ve listened to a number of books voiced by Bray and everyone of them is outstanding. In this book he tops everything. He handles so many characters that are so diverse. It’s spellbinding. He’ll have a selection where there’s male humans and female humans...young and old humans...aliens, male and female...male objects such as the co-protagonist of the story, Skippy, who resembles a shiny beer can. Bray sometimes has to assume 4 or 5 characters in a matter of seconds. It doesn’t sound rushed and he’s consistent with every character. I found it to be an extraordinary performance! I’m absolutely, 100%, primed for the next episode!

More fun than a barrel of meat sacks.

I didn't mind the side story, it was great. Not a fan of the Mavericks, but I realy enjoyed that the author is trying to show us a larger universe. Naration is great too.

Great
