The Last Ship

Galaxy in Flames, Book 2

By: Nicholas Sansbury Smith

Narrated by: Mark Boyett, Khristine Hvam

A chilling revelation about a forgotten Earth threatens the entire galaxy....

Held captive by Dark Horse Company, Captain Axel Finn is faced with a mission to humanity’s ancestral home after all contact with the planet is lost. Learning his mother might be hiding there, Axel agrees to help his adversaries, and deploy on Vengeance, the last Steward ship. But his decision might lead to his downfall if the Wrath have already arrived on Earth.

On the treacherous Wooly planet of Dari, bounty hunter Rangnar Soki becomes the prey, finding himself the target in a deadly game of survival. His path to rejoin Axel’s crew hinges on passing a test of Dari’s most revered guardian. Meanwhile, the surviving crew of the Trash Squid faces their own struggles to repair their damaged ship and leave Dari to find Captain Finn.

At the Citadel, Sergeant Jax Brito returns from her harrowing mission on Corinnia after drilling into a construct brimming with alien embryos. This grim discovery sends shockwaves through the CANDF ranks, and reality dawns on them all: The countdown to the Wrath invasion was wrong; it has already started, and no part of the galaxy is safe.

Better than the first!

Been waiting for this one, and it did not disappoint. Action, suspense, humor. The character development is superb. Rangnar is one of my favorite characters, along with Uga, and Axel. It's rare to find a book where I like all of the characters. This series really has it all. So much better than most of the space opera out there. If you're looking for a new series, don't pass this one up!

The story!! Another blockbuster for Nicholas Smith!!

Great narration. The team performed well. I wasn’t sure how I would like the switching but it worked out very well.

great characters and very good performance .... but all in all it didn't really go much of anywhere in this episode....

I liked the overall story.. plot i guess... but more, i think, could have been achieved... more meat. I liked the Sgt back on the farm.. more could have been done with that interesting situation... things like that. the star of the book spends a bit too much time moaning about things that must be done... over and over. hey I liked it ... you should read it... we can all have opinions on so many aspects of a solid story.

Exciting and laugh out loud action!

I love the story, and the narration is super engaging. The story is really action packed with lots of comic relief. Big fan!

My heart is still pounding!

Book 2 of Galaxy Flames series! Book 3 is arriving soon. Excellent new series - Don't Wait! Start Now!
