Publisher's summary

Evan Gabriel wasn't always a feared and respected North American Federation Navy Commander. Before dangerous missions to the ice-bound planet of Poliahu, the deadly jungle world of Eden, and politically corrupt Mars, he was a simple recruit, fighting to make his mark in the elite Naval Special Forces…and was part of a top-secret military experiment that would change his life forever.

Zero Point tells the tale of a young man faced with difficult choices and dangerous trials. Fans of the series will see part of the mysterious past Evan Gabriel carries with him, while listeners new to the series get a preview of what is to come in a military man's haunted life. Zero Point is the true beginning of Evan Gabriel, and his story is just getting started.

Critic reviews

"Umstead can write an action-packed adventure story better than most. He is an artist in designing a high-tech battlefield and weaving in the human element with his character's depth and color. If you like action in a science fiction setting then you really need to listen to this audiobook and give it a shot." (Tom Clementson, The Kindle Book Review)
"This series brings me back to the old days when sci-fi was about ass kicking, great friends, loyalty and action." (Amazon Reviewer)

It was free thats great, got me started on series

what else can I say it was free and probably will always be free so just download it and give it a try.

If its not free then thats strange cuz its in the title but anyways this was a great short story that gets you started in the series and I really liked it

The narrator isnt the best it takes a while to get used to him but he does talk strange sorta like talking to a child or something for some reason after I finished the whole series I was just not used to it

The story is nice it does a good job at setting you up in the world but not the story that comes in the next 3 books so read the reviews of that to see what they are about but if you like this then you will like the next 3 books

Amazing storyline and plot.

The story has a few good plot twists. The main character adds a human touch to everything he does. Also the narrator has an engaging voice.

Narratora isa bada

Listen to the first part because it was free. Not very good. The narrator is terrible. He puts an ah sound after every word-ah.

A dramatic "get in your head" story

What about Ray Chase’s performance did you like?

I like Ray Chase, but his voice seemed a little "gentle" for this particular story. I would have preferred someone with a more gruff tone.

Any additional comments?

Loved the story line, I did find it a little predictable but it was so well written I really didn't care. The development of the characters was terrific and found myself drawn into the scene at every turn despite it's predictability. I had to hear it anyway. If this was made free in order to draw readers into purchasing the rest of the series, it worked!

Interesting story line

Interesting storyline, similar to Clancyy execpt set in a future where space traveling military is the norm. But definitely military intrigue is a large part of this story.
