The Black Destroyer

Green Zone War, Book 6

By: Jake Elwood

Narrated by: Johnathan McClain

A deadly ambush...

Captain Tom Thrush is patrolling the Octagon Rift when his ship is attacked by a black destroyer that seems to predict his every move. Outgunned and outmaneuvered, he flees in a crippled ship to the only sanctuary he can reach—a den of thieves and spies called Lotus Station.

Stranded...

His ship will be broken up for scrap. Half the crew are casualties. The rest are scattering, leaving Tom stuck on Lotus. As the black destroyer hunts down local freighters, Tom becomes obsessed with tracking it down and taking revenge.

A lost corvette...

There are rumors of one more warship on Lotus Station. The Calgary is a heavy corvette captured by the Dawn Alliance and towed to Lotus. A corvette is no match for a destroyer, but it’s all he’s got. If Tom can find the Calgary—if he can get her fit to fly—and if he can find a crew, he will face the black destroyer one more time.

Yes keep the new books coming!

I love how Tom Thrush is growing and maturing through the whole series. Johnathan McClain does a great job of bringing the characters to life. I can't wait for the next book.

Great story, a break from the previous story

Loved it. Kind of a drama version of Phules Company. Can’t wait for the next one

A return to gripping space combat.

I did not expect the Green Zone War series to get another inclusion with a definite opening for more to come.

The story is well understood and voice read. The only thing is that this book feels like a 'part 1' kind of book. The ending is well developed but comes in like a butcher knife chopping off the book ending after the final battles concludes.

Still a good listen and looking forward for the next.

It was really great

The reader read with excitement and emotion. And I liked his sound of dread in his voice which is great for a book of war

Great series

Tom Rush of Earth, of Cree descent has had an uphill battle to be accepted by his peers. After being cashier out of the Navy for rescuing a group of prisoner's he accepts a position on the Green belt Navy. He fights against the Alliance and helps Black Destroyer destruction.

There should be at least another book describing the end of hostilities .
