Story
We were fighting on the wrong side of a war we couldn't win. And that was the good news. The Ruhar hit us on Columbus Day. There we were, innocently drifting along the cosmos on our little blue marble, like the native Americans in 1492. Over the horizon come ships of a technologically advanced, aggressive culture, and BAM! There go the good old days, when humans only got killed by each other. So, Columbus Day. It fits. When the morning sky twinkled again, this time with Kristang starships jumping in to hammer the Ruhar, we thought we were saved.

The human soldiers stranded on the planet Paradise have been recruited into an alien legion to do the dirty jobs that the high-tech species won't do. Their first mission is to kick the enemy off a backwater planet no one cares about. It's a simple assignment, except everyone has a hidden agenda, and the planet could become a deathtrap.

Story
My name is Kazimir Wolfe. People call me "Kaz", except they don’t. I never use my real name; it’s too dangerous, for me and for anyone I meet. I’m on the run from the law, who think I killed my aunt, and from whoever did kill her, because they want to finish the job. So, I move around a lot, working construction or whatever job I can find. It’s a lonely life. I don’t let anyone get close...people who get close to me end up dead. Why? I’m a wizard. The world’s only wizard, as far as I know.

On an urge to splurge, he signs up to have his head cryogenically preserved in case of death. Then he gets himself killed crossing the street. Waking up 117 years later, Bob discovers his mind has been uploaded into a sentient space probe with the ability to replicate itself.

The Wizard's Council of Tarador was supposed to tell young Koren Bladewell that he is a wizard. They were supposed to tell everyone that he is not a jinx, that all the bad things that happen around him are because he can't control the power inside him, power he doesn't know about. The people of his village, even his parents, are afraid of him, afraid he is cursed. That he is a dangerous, evil jinx.

When an experiment to study quantum uncertainty goes spectacularly wrong, physics student Bill Rustad and his friends find that they have accidentally created an inter-dimensional portal. They connect to Outland - an alternate Earth with identical geology, but where humans never evolved. The group races to establish control of the portal before the government, the military, or evildoers can take it away. Then everything changes when the Yellowstone supervolcano erupts in an explosion large enough to destroy civilization and kill half the planet.

Story
In the 25th century, humans have conquered space. The advent of faster-than-light travel has opened up hundreds of habitable planets for colonization, and humans have exploited the virtually limitless space and resources for hundreds of years with impunity. So complacent have they become with the overabundance that armed conflict is a thing of the past, and their machines of war are obsolete and decrepit. What would happen if they were suddenly threatened by a terrifying new enemy?

The mission is simple. Escort an emissary to an intergalactic peace summit. Try not to get in the way. Lt. Magnus and his 79th Recon Team have certainly handled worse, after all. But when an explosion rocks the tower and sends everyone into a panic, Magnus and his asset find themselves cut off from the rest of the team. Worse still, a dying alien chieftain gives them a priceless drive of intel, marking them for death. The mission has officially changed. With enemies on all sides, Magnus must do everything in his power to protect the emissary and escape the tower.

Separate Story, still good...
I was skeptical seeing a "3.5" in this series. Outside of being referenced a couple times the main character of the series was not present. I like the story more than I had expected but the duration of the story was very short considering the price tag on it. If It was cheaper I'd say it's worth it. Skipping this story will not negatively affect jumping into book 4

Decent short story
I thought this wouldn’t be as good of a read without Skippy. I was proven wrong. A bit more in the serious note, by very good overall.

Good but not worth the price
Quite enjoyable! However it was quite expensive for such a short book, and having listened to the main books first, this book is not necessary. But that doesn’t diminish the fact that it’s quite a good book!
Does make me miss skippy though!

No Skippy!
I was really worried when I realized there was no Skippy or space travel or elder stuff in this segment. However I ended up getting into the story. Perkins is a great character!

Required Reading
I wondered about skipping this book as it was only a short story in between the main series. I’m glad I didn’t. The plot of this book is only briefly mentioned by Skippy in the next book and you will be missing a lot of key plot points if you skip it. The fate of the Keepers, Glory, and UNEF/Ruhar relations. A new character is also introduced who will likely be and important character later in the series.
The book is a little slow starting out and feels a little rushed towards the end. But all and all, it’s an awesome story starring the characters on Paradise. RC Bray does his magic as usual as an amazing narrator. Very much recommend this book if you’re reading the series.
