About this listen
Although book 4 is part of the Black Guard series, it can be listened to as a stand-alone novel.
Outpost and their allies, Lariw and Valhall, are close to solidifying the Helix Alliance, their first step in achieving their decades-old goal of annihilating Jax.
The Alliance, which Jax refuses to join, will allow the Outpost led alliance navy to hassle Jax's merchants with the intention of eventually provoking an incident that will lead to war–a war Jax cannot win against a larger alliance navy. A nightmare scenario, since Outpost secretly intends to commit genocide against Jax.
The Jax Military Committee decides to sends General Noam, their most innovative member, on a sabbatical to devote his efforts to finding a solution to their dilemma. He returns two years later with a radical idea–but can it be developed in time, can it be kept a secret, can the Jax navy adjust, and most important, will it work?
It's an all-or-nothing--survive or perish--gambit.

Surviving the training program was dangerous - even the first challenge to gain entrance to the school could get you killed. But the training was the easy part. Staying alive afterward was the hard part. Kazaks guarded individuals whose lives were deemed critical to the security of the United States. As such, Kazaks attracted fanatics and the best professional assassins money could buy - liars who could tell lies you believed, ghosts who could become nearly invisible, and Illusionists who could appear to be anyone.

Like Stieg Larsson's Lisbeth Salander in The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo Ell is also a mathematical genius who, instead of counting sheep, works on her own theory of quantum mechanics to help her drift off to sleep. At once shy and concerned about her social skills, yet well loved by those around her, she finds herself at the center of a terrorist plot at the Olympics.

It's been eighty years since Thorn split his people into six societies spread across the galaxy. He's known all that time a timeline shift was coming, and the role he needed to play when it did. The mages of his world are ready, including his great-great nephew, Bud. For Bud, living in the shadow of his legend relative hasn't really been an issue, and his role in the timeline shift is supposed to be minor. But Kali has an agenda, magic has its own agenda, and since Thorn is old, and tired of his people's reliance on him, he too has an agenda.

Seventy years ago, the interstellar supercarrier Ark Royal was the pride of the Royal Navy. But now, her weapons are outdated and her solid-state armour nothing more than a burden on her colossal hull. She floats in permanent orbit near Earth, a dumping ground for the officers and crew the Royal Navy wishes to keep out of the public eye. But when a deadly alien threat appears, the modern starships built by humanity are no match for the powerful alien weapons.

Written by the recently retired Deputy Supreme Allied Commander Europe and endorsed by senior military figures, this audiobook shows how war with Russia could erupt, with the bloodiest and most appalling consequences, if the necessary steps are not taken urgently.

Youth isn’t wasted on the young
I hope that the majority of the readers of this energetic, imaginative book recognize the saying in my title of this review. That would prove to me that an idealized plot applies to all ages! The Black Guardians is one of those delightful books that doesn’t overtax the brain with character development, urban building, social commentary, or any other phrase used by “serious” critics. This book is fun, sleep depriving, and just what is needed by the sci fi buff who doesn’t want to listen to another end of the world or how the end is achieved. (I never once had to go to my translation book to look up EMP, SCAT, or any of the hundreds of alphabet “words” ). I highly recommend.

boring and a waste of a credit.
Thought this was a continuation of characterx from first 3 books. It's not! The plot was too predictable from first chapter. 'Finished' it by skipping several chapter. Anyone who has read other books will see obvious 'snips, cuts and minimal disguising' of many characters. The open ending guarentees no futher books in this series for me. The reader does a fair job. I enjoyed her reading even though I disliked the book.
