Resumen del Editor

Two centuries ago, the generation starship Pathfinder fled a war-torn Earth, never to be heard from again. Until now....

Captain Caleb Card and his crew are on a mission to investigate a transmission believed to be from the lost ship. Ambushed upon arrival, they immediately fear the worst. But the beacon isn’t only active, it’s on the move, and where it leads will change everything they thought they knew about the universe. Cast into a distant galaxy brimming with unknown dangers, they’ll need to adapt quickly if they want to survive long enough to help the missing colonists.

Caleb knows war. He’s been fighting most of his life.

He’s never experienced anything like this.

If you like fast-paced, action-packed science fiction, lost starships, space marines and alien worlds, you’ll love Galaxy Unknown, the latest exhilarating sci-fi from best-selling author M.R. Forbes.

Good story line

The story line is a good ride. If you like detailed combat fights, you will like this, as for me, I'll pass but couldn't in this story as you learn little nuggets of information that will be needed for later so you can grasp the larger picture.
I'm positive that this story will morph as it goes on, like his other writings do.

Caleb!

Just started the 2nd book and at 11 minutes in I'm ready to stop listening! I can't stand characters with a self-righteous sense of honor...

Interesting continuation of Caleb Card adventures

While I missed a section of the adventures of Caleb Card, I understood enough to enjoy this book. This is a good start to another set of adventures.

Very entertaining story!

M.R. Forbes is an excellent storyteller. The narrator also did a fantastic job. I am behind in reading the overall series arc (this is the 9th set) but I still had no problem following and enjoyed every bit of this amazing tale. I look forward to the rest of the series!

Caleb Card!!!

I love the forgotten series but I was little worried reading the premise. I couldn’t have been happier listening to this book. Def worth the read/listen!!!

Good action but meh plot

Disappointed. Good action but meh plot. Many illogical plot holes and character discontinuities and bad pseudo science fantasies. The most offensive is our two main heroes' betrayal and murder of the princess, a bitch move. It kills the book. Authors do this when their plot sucks and they're off deadline. That makes sense because the plot is juvenile; It's a fubar'd rescue attempt by a hotshot. Certainly, something so important would have more resources devoted to it. The “wormhole”" wouldn't park them onto the same planet. You can't make a predicable hero assassinate what he's sworn to defend because now there isn't any trust in what will happen in the future. It's an idiotic train wreck. Biggest plot holes: If the hive mind can comm anywhere through the multiverse, then why would't they just have everything delivered to them? Also, a symbiote that compels and feeds off of dangerous behavior would not live long enough to reproduce. So from a basic evolutionary biology perspective, kind of insulting. Thus, meh. This author killed my interest in any more of his work when he killed the princess. The cliffhanger is the cheap icing on the shit cake. Hard pass on his next book.
