It's all come down to this.

A war for control of all civilization, pitting organic life against an ancient evil that knows no fear, no kindness, and no limits. Calamity is loose, and it's been busy learning—from its time with Netty to running wild among the stars, the ultimate evil seeks nothing less than complete dominion over all space and time.

And for Calamity, life is in the way.

Van and his crew will enlist old friends, new friends, and the very beings he sought to protect from his first days as a rookie Peacemaker, fighting for the dignity of those who had no voices during the dark years of a corrupt guild.

It all comes down to this. And one way or another—it all ends here.

From the fields of Iowa to deepest space, the final conflict will unfold with only one thing certain: not everyone will survive, but Van will give his last breath to make certain that when future generations speak his name, they will always remember one fact.

Until the end, he gave it all for justice, no matter the cost.

A very satisfying 25th book. Quite a lot of loose ends tied up with a room left for more story.

Well crafted, well thought out, and well read.

Great listen. Not ready for the story to end... I see unfilled slots for additional stories... then only some weird title with Ickey and Fun Boy.

Seems like the end of the story,,, say it ain't so

After 25 books I think this series is one of the longest and most interesting and entertaining series that I have ever read. This book is just as good and perhaps better then the others. I hope there are many more left in the series. If you have not started at the beginning of the series do yourself a favor and start at book 1, you can thank me later. Also as a side note the narration is one of the best for a series. I have over 600 audible books in my library thus I hear a lot and Jeffrey is now one of my favorites because of the Backyard Starship series. The characters are like family to me that I get to enjoy every 2 months or so. As always I look forward to the next Backyard Starship release.

After 25 books I think

I’m not crying…you’re crying…we all get older and just hope you were able to teach the next generation what we know and hope they can make you proud…

I LOVE THIS SERIES!!!
