Story
POW Aden Jansen has lost a decade of his life to both the war and internment when he’s recruited by the Alliance. He’s to return to Gretia as an undercover Blackguard operative and destroy Odin’s Wolves—an insurgency that’s setting his home world afire. The mission comes with a full pardon and a chance to reclaim his identity. It also means rejoining his friends and family in space. That’s motive enough. If he can succeed—and survive.

Story
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.

Go to war or go to jail. For small-time street hustler Cam Alvarez, the choice is simple.... He has no family, no friends, no place in the world...nothing to lose. When his latest con results in the death of a cartel hit man, Cam opts to join the Marines and leave Earth to fight a vicious alien enemy. Drafted into the Marine Drop-Troopers, Cam discovers there’s one thing he’s even better at than running street-con games, and that’s killing the enemy.

Aliens exist...and, as it turns out, most of them aren’t that friendly. Jacob Brown wasn’t even born yet the first time they attacked Earth. He was only 14 the second time it happened. When Earth finally came together and fielded its first spaceborne military, Jacob didn’t hesitate to volunteer. Serving aboard a mighty starship, he’d be able to defend his planet - and his family - when, inevitably, they came again.

Three decades ago, a colossal Empire unleashed its wrath upon a single world—Earth. Their intent was complete annihilation. However, when the dust cleared, the people of Earth were instead scattered to the stars, their home now a frozen waste at the center of a fortress system that none dared approach. Now, Earth's survivors are spread far and wide. Most lost to the stars, but some remained close to their enemy, waiting for a chance to finish the war on their own terms. For the Empire, the sins of the past are converging. The seeds are sown... and Harvest is coming.

So when Dailey is handed down a mysterious, high-security mission that's ostensibly a search-and-rescue for his once-upon-a-time academy rival turned brother in arms, he's convinced there's more to the job than meets the eye. Soon, the USF Murphy is on its way to the edge of the Void to track down what happened to Capt. Rick Bearing and the Asher-5.

Publisher's summary
On a distant Earth colony, an orphaned survivor of an alien invasion discovers that the greatest world-ending dangers aren’t behind her.
It’s been eight years since an alien invasion drove a small surviving group of settlers to seek refuge in an underground shelter. Cut off from the rest of humanity, the ragtag band has maintained a narrowly functioning colony due to communal effort and salvage runs. Alex Archer has her own duties as a dog handler. While this off-world colony may be harsh, Ash, Alex’s black shepherd raised to sense threats, makes living in it a little nicer.
But the tenuous hide-and-seek with the monstrous species known as the Lankies is about to come to an end for Alex and her close-knit crew of soldiers, techs, and friends. When a salvage operation goes catastrophically wrong, the Lankies home in on the humans.
With hopes of a rescue long faded, all Alex has left is will—and the fear that there’s so much more to lose.
Critic reviews
"Kloos has created a believable universe and a fast-moving story of resilience, rescue, and reintegration that reads like a combination of John Scalzi’s Old Man’s War (2004) and Andy Weir’s The Martian (2014).”—Booklist
“Kloos is well on his way to becoming one of the genre’s best assets.”—io9
“There is nobody who does [military science fiction] better than Marko Kloos.”—George R. R. Martin

Davon träumt auch der junge Andy Grayson. Um endlich von der Erde wegzukommen, tritt er der Army bei, die sich gerade auf einen interstellaren Krieg mit einer feindlich gesinnten Alien-Spezies vorbereitet. Und ehe er sichs versieht, landet Andy auf einem weit abgelegenen Kolonialplaneten der Erde - im härtesten Bootcamp des Universums.

Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore, Headmaster of Hogwarts, is one of the most recognizable and mysterious figures in the Harry Potter series. As an unscrupulous beetle-like journalist once said, he's "a biographer's dream." Is he omniscient or limited? Is he benevolent or malevolent? What really drove him in the last years of an extraordinary life? Dumbledore dives between the lines of the Harry Potter books to create a portrait of the controversial Headmaster. We find Dumbledore's hand in every seeming coincidence and consider the impossible decisions he had to make.

Good story, not may fav narrator
I’m interested to see how the story unfolds in the second book, nice to have a female lead character, love the dogs aspect, I hope the dogs continue in the next book. Narrator kind of sounded like Siri or a decent robot voice. Not much inflection and the different character voices were not very different. Really enjoy the Marlo Kloos stories and I imagine narrators are hard to find. When Front Lines switched from Luke to Eric, it took some getting used to but they were both good. This narrator for this book is too flat imo.

Oh, this is an origin story? My Mistake.
After reading the synopsis and reviews of Scorpio, I decided to give it a go. I believe this was a free Amazon first read. I enjoy "what if" stories such as dystopian futures or space exploration adventures. So, let's see where this thing goes.
Minor spoilers ahead: When the book opens, you're sitting shotgun with Alex Archer, her dog Ash, and a salvage team on a remote planet inhabited by a straggle of human colonists and building-sized aliens called Lankies. However, after 40% through the book, the salvage team (or what's left of it) is finally arriving back at base camp. Sure, some stuff happens in that 40%: the convoy gets stuck in a deluge, Lankies try hanging out with the humans, etc. But almost half the book on one scenario? Then, after an awesome attempt at a Lankies surprise party, my faith was almost restored. ... Until the remainder of the book is dedicated to Alex living on a military drop ship and not knowing what to do with her life. And you know what I eventually learned? Absolutely nothing. This book is so devoid of plot that, literally, only in the last few pages of the last chapter did Alex make a decision and finally point the story(?) into predictable headwinds.
So, in the end, similar to the salvage team's M.U.L.E. hopelessly churning up mud with its tires, this book never finds any grip until the very last page.
The one shining win for this book is Arielle DeLisle's performance. She was absolutely stellar depicting all the characters and giving them live emotions. I will now seek out other novels she's collaborated on because she was that good.

Amazing Immersion into a Different World!
This is the first book I've read by author Marko Kloos. It will not be my last. I love it when I find a great author who has previously been unknown to me, so this story was a definite win!
The world Kloos has created here is stark, formidable, and cruel. The Earth colony that inhabited this planet a few years ago was all but wiped out when an alien invasion by a species known as the Lankies came to destroy and kill. Only a few human colonists survived and have been in an underground bunker for nearly a decade, eeking out a bare subsistence by working together. They have managed to keep machinery and tech going by venturing onto the surface occasionally to salvage necessary items. But these are acts of desperation and extremely dangerous since the Lankies control the surface.
Our heroine is a girl named Alex, who is celebrating her 18th birthday on the surface as part of a salvage mission. She's a dog handler who goes out routinely with the military force because her dog Ash can detect the Lankies well before any human can. Alex's birthday doesn't exactly go as one would hope for such an important milestone. It goes to hell. Fast.
Alex, Ash, and the soldiers on this mission captured me quickly and completely. I was totally in this alien world with them, trying to determine a way they could overcome Everest-sized obstacles and make it back to base. Once drawn into the fast pace and full-on danger, I could not put this book down. The characters are diverse, compelling, genuine. The antagonists are vicious and deadly. The storyline is whip-smart with a warp-speed pace. Awesome.
As for me, my breathless adventure with the fierce and brilliant Alex left me wanting more. The first thing I did after finishing this book was to look for the next in the series. I'll be waiting, Mr. Kloos... but not very patiently.

Mediocre narration, mediocre story
The entire book seems to be intended as a very long Prologue to a spin-off series for Frontlines, which never really resolved into more than just a resistance and arms escalation up to the end, with the protagonists winning some and losing some, but always hanging in there.
This book seems to be more of the same, but with a less interesting protagonist. I don’t dislike Alex, but I feel like having every single chapter in her very limited POV had me yearning to simply be done with it so I could move on.
The narration is also just this side of listenable, in my opinion. The main characters aren’t too grating, but when it comes to some of the diction and inflection choices made for other characters, many of them break immersion because they just don’t sound realistic.
For the future of this series, I am hoping for a bit more than just “hordes of spacefaring humans outsmart Lankeys with bigger guns and better ships” and we actually get glimpses into the motives behind the Lankeys, their origins, and whether there is other life out there in this universe.
