Publisher's summary

Two reluctant heroes. One hell of a long day.

Amidst harrowing famine and deadly aliens who hunt humans and turn them into scaly mutants, Jarek is having a pretty good day.

He survived Earth's invasion, he still has his ship, and his prized exo-suit and AI-companion are safe and sound. But when his weaponized suit is stolen, he'll stop at nothing to get it back. Even if he has to break into the alien king's stronghold to do it.

On the way to spring his imprisoned informant, though, an energy-slinging arcanist named Rachel lays claim to the same captive. When he sees her throwing around grown men with telekinetic powers, Jarek has no room to argue. Especially not when teaming up may be the only way to get out of the king's stronghold alive.

One thing's for certain. Jarek didn't sign up for this crap. And neither did his fiery new friend. But together, they might just be strong enough to pull it off. Assuming they don't kill each other first....

Red Gambit is the first book in the irreverent, post-apocalyptic Harvesters series. If you like wise-cracking dialogue, galactic vampires, and endearing, gun-toting outcasts, then you'll love Luke R. Mitchell's powder keg of an adventure.

Buy Red Gambit today and suit up for a hilarious, high-octane thrill-ride!

Red Gambit

This book was fantastic. The characters feel natural and the dialog flows beautifully. I would recommend Red Gambit to anyone who enjoys sci-fi, fantasy, or dystopian fiction.

pretty good

I'm not a huge fan of the narrator but I've heard worse he does put in actual effort and the story is good enough that it doesn't detract excited for the next book

Snark magic and butt kicking

If your looking for a long intricate story about the human condition then go somewhere else .
If your looking for a fun ride with talking robotic power suit a magic user with an attitude.
And yes a Snarky main character with a heart of gold , I mean a heart for gold then look no further .
Plus if you act now you might get a free set of steak knives, maybe .

VERY GOOD. WELL WRITTEN AND PERFORMED.

Most enjoyable. Fast paced and action packed. I like the performance by Steven Barnett who bring the characters to life with his narration. The dialogue was excellent and flows smoothly. Written in the third person which is what I like. The protagonist was likeable and the humour was good. Very good start to a new series which I intend to follow. I hope the next book will come out soon. Luke R Mitchell is a new writer to me and I will be looking forward to more of his books.

Engaging and Fun

I really enjoyed listening to this audiobook. The characters were fun and the narrator did an outstanding job of reading and putting life into the characters. Jarek was quite the character, but this was a nice adventure that wasn't too sappy or wise-cracking that it took away from the story. If you like the adventure, fantasy, with some comedy mixed in book, you'll like this one.

I did receive this audiobook in exchange for an honest review and I'm giving it one. The book was not too long but is also very competitvely priced. This book was a great listen as I honestly like audiobooks more than regular old paper books.
