In the future, Earth's warriors have

conquered the heavens.

But on a distant world,

Humanity is in chains....

Many millennia ago, the human race was enslaved by the An - a fearsome alien people whose cruel empire once spanned the galaxies, until they were defeated and consigned to oblivion. But a research mission to the planet Ishtar has made a terrifying - and fatal - discovery: The Ahanu, ancestors of the former masters, live on, far from the reach of Earth - born weapons and technology ... and tens of thousands of captive human souls still bow to their iron will.

Now Earth's Interstellar Marine Expeditionary Unit must undertake a rescue operation as improbable as it is essential to humankind's future, embarking on a 10-year voyage to a hostile world to face an entrenched enemy driven by dreams of past glory and intent once more on domination. For those who, for countless generations, have known nothing but toil and subjugation must be granted, at all costs, the precious gift entitled to all of their star-traveling kind: freedom!

The technical concepts are mind blowing. The milieu detailed. The action rousing. Couldn't ask for better entertainment.

First Class SciFi

The story was a ok , but gave up on chapter 13. I hope the following books were narrated by someone else

Just can’t enjoy the narration, he reads it like a bad version of automated service.

Good story. Enjoyed it. Plenty of action and adventure with descent science mixed in with it.

Enjoy

I've read all the books in these series and have always enjoyed then. Easy enough to digest and always kept me interested. Unfortunately I just cannot handle the narration. The cadence is terrible, there is a huge lack of emotion, and so many times the inflection is completely wrong for the scene. Many of the scenes are somber and grim yet the narrator's tonality is plodding and somehow upbeat. Absolutely removes the immersion. He'd be very good for an automated VOIP system, but novels are not his forte. I have experience with voice overs and just can't see how he was cast for this. Returned two of the books but can't return the third it seems. Guess I'll dig these out of storage, but I travel a lot and these would have been nice to listen to.

Love these books, narration ruined it.

Great Start to a Saga

D. said it was great and he is right on (in my mind) most of the time. Lots of action, fast moving, great performance. Listened to the whole trilogy in just over a week. Couldn't put it down!!!

Thanks Dennis !

The story is very jumpy, back and forth in timeliness, characters, etc. which probably wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the narrator.

The narrator, while very clear, consise, and well spoken, just drones on. There is no inflection, nothing emotes, and all the characters sound exactly the same.
It very hard to pay attention to what's going on, and I find myself constantly getting bored.
Sadly, I bought the 1rst 3 books of this series during Audibles most recent sale, and am stuck with them bc they are not eligible for refund.
Nearly finished with book 1, and only have the vaguest idea of what's going on.

Narrator is very robotic

This book is great, the narrator is trash, disappointing and tough to listen to. He knows these are Space Marines and not customer service employees right ?

Terrible narration

I absolutely love it, I read it when I was younger and found it again on here, as far as the narrator like everyone is saying, I personally don’t see the issue, but that’s my opinion. He seems to know military lingo a bit. (He said corpsman correctly so that’s a giant big check in my book). A lot of narrators who do military scifi always seem to goof up and disconnect me from the story with their obvious lack of using google and research, but not this guy. He isn’t Ray Porter, but that’s okay. I really don’t see how he is annoying.

The story is fun, expansive and techy.even if you can do the narrators voice, but the real book!

One of my feel good books

The first thing I would like to say is I thought David Drummond did a wonderful job of narration.

Ian Douglas is one of my favorite authors. The Star Carrier series truly stands out and I have pre-ordered the next book in that series.

Star Corps starts out well. Earth as a space faring species with no FTL travel. Very interesting when it is used (Ian Douglas is good at it).

THEN, as the battle begins, we suddenly get a Wiccan religion thrown in. Huh? It is a completely made up religion (Wikipedia " It was developed in England during the first half of the 20th century and it was introduced to the public in 1954 by Gerald Gardner, a retired British civil servant.")

The battles continue and are well written and narrated. But it seems that every myth known on Earth has it origins in space. While Stargate used that theme a bit, they did not attribute EVERY myth to visitors and even had a rebellion thousands of years before Christ.

According to the epilogue, the rest of the series will be looking at other mysteries and myths by Marine Expeditionary Forces.

I guess I like Sci-Fi that is futuristic, and not based on myths or needs chaplains for 72 different religions including ones more inventive than the myths they seem to explore.

I am not sure I will listen to the rest of the series to see if my thoughts are true. Oh, I have written negative reviews before. They always get thumbs down votes. Not sure why.

OK story, quite different (or weird) in many spots
