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.

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 year is 2108, and the North American Commonwealth is bursting at the seams. For welfare rats like Andrew Grayson, there are only two ways out of the crime-ridden and filthy welfare tenements: You can hope to win the lottery and draw a ticket on a colony ship settling off-world...or you can join the service. With the colony lottery a pipe dream, Andrew chooses to enlist in the armed forces for a shot at real food, a retirement bonus, and maybe a ticket off Earth.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Great action described with the perfect amount of battle scenes, scifi techno-babble, human anguish and a healthy does of humor
Who was your favorite character and why?
Valdar-strong moral core
mark ibarra-cunning and ruthless in service of humanity
Gaul -she is a badass
toth-wonderfully disgusting and evil
What about Luke Daniels’s performance did you like?
read with feeling and multiple voices helps listeners better visualize the story
Any additional comments?
I don't agree/understand the anger against the tank grown humans and the author's preoccupation with souls; seems anachronistic. While scifi grappling with whether ai is alive/have souls is not new (data, ceylons) , these Procedurals are created with egg and sperm and are unique individuals

satisfying installment in a great series
A lot of my audible purchases are based on following narrators I like; Luke Daniels is one of my all time favorites. I've stumbled onto more than one new author this way and Richard Fox is the latest great find. His story telling is clean and well thought out, and his characters are engaging and relatable. I've enjoyed alternately cursing and cheering for Mark Ibara. Each novel has had a satisfying conclusion, but the murky background of increasingly complex alien politics and the steadily unfolding mystery of the Xaros' origin and purpose leaves the story plenty of room to grow. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series.

Absolutely awesome!
I’ve encountered many series which could have been half as long and much better but because the authors where greedy they prolonged the series with much boring stuff just to sell extra books or audiobooks.
NOT THIS AUTHOR !
Audiobook 4 and I can’t stop, truly an amazing series, what an excellent imagination Richard Fox the author have?
Where does he get all the ideas?
And on top of it all his writing never stops from keeping you out of suspense !
Not forgetting Luke Daniels perfect narration through every audiobook till now which I see no reason for it to change.
Absolutely full heartedly recommended !

Ausie accent
The story is great and i have read the first 3 on kindle and enjoyed it,which is why i bought the 4th one on Audible.
The only thing for me cause i am an Ausie and Luke sounds more like a Kiwi.I do know how hard it is to immitate an Ausie and i do enjoy listening to all the different voices he does.and will probably by more Audible books of the Ember Wars.On another narrator in another Audio book the narrator was supposed to be talking Scottish which was ordinary but he improved with the next books.Please know this is not a negative review,just an observation.Have a great day and keep up the good work.Regards,John McGregor.Australia
