Guardian Ship

De: Mark Wayne McGinnis

Narrado por: Adam Gold

Dominic Moretti was dealing with a lot of issues. Life hadn’t been easy since returning home from Afghanistan. His marriage was on the rocks, his sports betting was out of control, and he was hanging out with the wrong cronies in Manhattan’s Little Italy - just another war hero who couldn’t piece his life back together in the real world. Also, there was that strange, annoying feeling that he was being watched....

Humankind was indeed being evaluated, by the highly advanced Khantam Lom, an alien species in control of much of the galaxy. Did this selfish, war-mongering, human race warrant protection from the soon-to be-invading Wikk Empire? An insectile species with insatiable appetites, the Wikk were hell-bent on subjugating Earth as one of their many farming settlements.

So the adventure begins. Dominic inadvertently saves the life of a Khantam Lom Observer, and everything changes. Humankind has but one - seeming impossible - shot at avoiding a catastrophic fate. Dominic won’t be able to do it alone, but will the ragtag team he’s assembled be enough? Will any of them survive long enough to make a difference?

Great Entertainment

I wish that there was a follow on book continuing this story line. it was a good start for a series with lots of possibilties to extend this into a great series.

A watcher assists Earth.

A watcher from an advanced Alien Race assists in the saving Earth from an insectoid carnivorous species.

GREAT STORY

GREAT STORY CAN’T WAIT TO READ THE NEXT ONE . I wonder if there was a Tory before this one .

Different and enjoyable story concept

I enjoyed this story, but didn't care for the introspection during critical moments, nor the lack of focus during battles while the hero is thinking about a woman's beauty, so not going to happen during a battle! 😊

Liked the story! Perfect narration!!!

Over all this was a pretty good story but it did get ridiculous at times. I mean, if you're going to save the world from aliens that are carnivores and humans are going to be breakfast, lunch and dinner, you don't build so much time trying to save one little girl, who shouldn't even been in the book, when all of humanity is at stake.

However, I listened to this on Audible and the characters voices are simply wonderful, especially Gordo, the mafia member. And they all had some pretty funny lines. I enjoyed it.

No romance and the F-bomb was used 88 times.

As for the narration: To be honest I got this book because it sounded okay BUT mostly because Adam Gold was narrating. He did the series about Jack Winchester and I loved every book because of him. He's an awesome narrator.

okay but not stellar

an interesting story but not unique in nature.
I Don't think I got emotionally close to any of the characters. it was just a story
I'm sure there'll be a follow-up book, but I'm not so sure I will be reading it Born in this case listening to it.

Nice and easy

I didn't think i would like so much this book, i must say i enjoyed avery moment of it, i do hope it will continue as a series. The narrator was also very good, all in all i was impressed !

Just not good enough

Not good, story was thin and with characters without any personality everyone felt like they where scripted characters.

Enjoyable cheese

Hey its like who can save the world I guess anybody but your gonna be on a Rollercoaster with this one.

Great story

I really loved this book and would have given it a 5 star rating across the board, but it leaves you hanging with a sequel. Hope they do a book 2.
