Publisher's Summary

The battle against the Lankies has been won. Earth seems safe. Peacetime military? Not on your life.

It’s been four years since Earth threw its full military prowess against the Lanky incursion. Humanity has been yanked back from the abyss of extinction. The solar system is at peace. For now.

The future for Major Andrew Grayson of the Commonwealth Defense Corps and his wife, Halley? Flying desk duty on the front. No more nightmares of monstrous things. No more traumas to the mind and body. But when an offer comes down from above, Andrew has to make a choice: continue pushing papers into retirement, or jump right back into the fight? What’s a podhead to do?

The remaining Lankies may have retreated in fear, but the threat isn’t over. They need to be wiped out for good before they strike again. That’ll take a new offensive deployment. Aboard an Avenger warship, Andrew and the special tactics team under his command embark on the ultimate search-and-destroy mission. This time, it’ll be on Lanky turf.

No big heroics. No unnecessary risks. Just a swift hit-and-run raid in the hostile Capella system. Blow the alien seed ships into oblivion and get the hell back to Earth. At least, that’s the objective. But when does anything in war go according to plan?

If I could assign more than 5 stars, I would!

This installment of the Frontlines series did not disappoint. I love the story, I love how it's written and I love the narration. Can hardly wait to read the next one!

Where’s Luke Daniels!!?

This is by far my favourite series. Marko Kloos is an absolute genius at world building and the characters he creates in this series become your friends. This book was no exception, except Luke Daniels brought the characters to life in a way very few narrators ever have. A masterpiece of a story requires an equally masterful narration to do it proper justice. While good, Eric Dove fell short on the immersion Luke Daniel’s could envelope a listener in.

Narrator is meh

Great series but really throws you off when they change narrator over halfway through. Then the attempts at a feminine voice really do nothing to help

Just takes a bit of getting use to

It's great the new voice actor is doing a pretty good job emulating the voices we have gotten use to

Enjoyed!! Can't wait for the next one

While this book starts off on a sad note, I enjoyed it thoroughly. Good story excellent characters my only one complaint would be I want to see his wife in the stories more because she is also awesome and also Andrews Russian counterpart as he added some witty humor to tough situations.

Finally

After many years the author has decided to get back and continue his #1 series. It took a while to get back into it but I gradually started loving it. The story was getting built up nicely, getting really interesting and then ended. Abruptly. Another example of taking a story and splitting it into numerous books to gain more money (My opinion). I'm not talking about a series with multiple adventures each with a beginning and an end. This story has a beginning but no end.

Really well done

I've been enjoying this series since I picked it up on request! It keeps the action and tension rolling well and this book actually finished on a new note for the series previously somewhat formulaic approach which really made the difference! If you're a fan of military sci-fi, give this a listen.
