I agree. Christian Rummel is a brilliant narrator. He has also narrated another series by Vaughn Heppner 'Invaders'. And Bill The Galactic Hero series by Harry Harrison which is laugh out loud funny.
@@richardyeo9332 I'm listening to expeditionary force right now had to subscribe to audible to get it but it's very good and funny as well only bad thing is audible you have to pay 15 dollars and buy the books trying to find better options 15 dollars is way to much just to have to buy a book to listen to
Every time Vaughn mentions another Author, take a drink of whiskey. Prepare to be shitfaced. I enjoyed the hell out of this. I'm also making them on OG GI Joe figures from Cotswold. They have all the heads painted and flocked with lifelike hair and kung fu grip.
Daaaammmmnnn Vaughn! This is fanfuckingtastic too me! Very detailed, very cool & very in depth! I listened to "lost command" and loved it too! I'm gonna listen to everything you have on audio and will push them on others! Great job homie.... Great job!!
Just love his reference to the opium wars...certainly not lost on me. If you look at the currant relationship between US and China you can see not much has changed
@@DaveSCameron .Britain and the US used Opium to weaken and control China in this they were very successful. Today you use different weapons but the goal is the same. You peddle democracy like it was opium. Unfortunatly for you the world and China in particular are awake to your antics. Just look at your colour revolutions, look at the death and desrtruction you bring. JUST LOOK AT UKRAINE. Just look what you have done.
See a lot of complaining, but I found it interesting. It does a good job of gradually integrating and explaining the progression of understanding of what seems to be a pretty in depth universe
I like this one. The hero is an everyday Joe. Maybe a little rough around the edges but are we all not. Lots of evil aliens , robots, lizards, war .typically the setting for interstellar war
I believe in reading at least 1/3 of a book to give it a chance before deciding that I dislike it. With this book, I lost interest early on but kept listening. About half way through now and I'm thinking maybe it could be ok but still waiting to hear something that really grabs my interest and makes me have some investment in the characters. I'm not saying it's bad. If you like it that's great. I'll probably try to finish this book and see if it makes me want to hear more. Thanks for the uploads!
Cause if its developped by the enemy, the said enemy could have a failsafe to lock the armor out or know of the weakness.so it becomes too risky plus its alive and symbiotic!it doesnt come with a manual!too many unknown.basicly use with extreme prejudice and as last resort
Umm maybe thats another reason why the military now includes so much female recruits.Also in many part of the world females are a high comodity due to female : male ratio being 1:1 or 1:4 china At 25:00 when he talks of stopping the fat pig guy from rapping the heeled n skirt babe, he fails to realise that was the reason he n rolo were transfered to the pole saved their lives! Its nice to a book written with so many modern up to date facts. Vaughn Heppner is good ,cause it takes a very good mind to entertain me.👍 The symbiotic armour reminds me on Gantz armour!😋 So basicly just like human captured and used people as slaves, the alien are doing the same! Ref predators, die hard war of the worlds!😁 Big props for talking about East India Company!
The Army has Drill Sergeants. Not D.I.s or Drill Instroctors. Those are Marine Corp. also, no way he carried a .50 Cal up mountains in Afghanistan. He probably meant to say M60 or M240 or GPMG.
I get it. I learned from my father and many fathers before him “never let truth get in the way of a good story.” So I’ve been known to spin a yarn myself. Not a critique really. Just an acknowledgment of what’s going on.

Taipan was a good movie British actor forgot his name was it Brian = brown another good movie FX I was little kid watching crazy movies the opium wars in Taipan
I feel asleep. Did this guy say he was in the military? Main character said he was in jail. Maybe it's supposed to be a regular guy that got into some post alien military
That Booey knife damn. It actually makes me cringe. They prob realized the mispronunciation at the end and couldn't fix it because of how many times it is used throughout the book. But who hasn't heard of a Bowie knife
First off I'd like to hear book 2. Second the main guy in this book is an idiot. No wonder they kept calling him a beast. Overall it was a good book. Still wanna hear the second one. I found book 3.
I really want to like this but the narrator keeps whispering then yelling like he is on a roller coaster. It's very hard to fall asleep to. You struggle to hear what he is saying then you dose off the damn near jump out of your skin. That's just my take. I'm awake now and can't wait to get back into it.
20 minutes in and you can tell the author has no clue about the military. "Had me lugging a .50 cal machine gun up and down mountains". WTF. No. Maybe a SAW, but .50 technical is going to be on a HUM-VEE, MRAP, or a Bradley.
Someone has to mobilize the weapon to it's assigned sector of fire. I lugged it quite a few times to fighting positions but the 50 is a crew served weapon so you don't lug it alone. Two barrels, the reciver, bipod and tool bag. We drive to the location but carry it to our fortified fighting position. Many times it's ring mounted on a vehicle. But we do at times lug it.
He keeps talking about using an M14, will will and those were replaced by the M-16 in the mid 60s. We were still issued those was when I was in Korea in '65 and '66.
@@jonbocz In 1969 I trained with the M14 and the M16, I am not sure but I think I qualified with the M16. Two very different weapons really and the M14 was more of a brute.

How does everyone (aliens) speaky the English all of the sudden. Or is it that, with the body upgrade- the protagonist is now multilingual? Did I miss that part?
I just assume that it would be generally a common tech in a diverse galactic universe to have translators in any sort of meeting with diverse beings. Seems reasonable to me.
I love vaugh hepner. I don't know if its this book or the narration but this is the worst thing i have every heard. I have to burn my pc now. It's just mind numbingly dull and basic. Like some idiot marine wrote. Narrated. And starred in it. Uhggg it's so look cringy I cant.

Why is everyone expecting a masterpiece? It's a fun listen. I'm 3 hours in already. Y'all can write your own SciFi... See how you do
Totally right, ppl should stop whinnong, it's seem so easy to cobstruct a fiction especially sci fi vauhn heppner made really great eci gi space opera works

it actually reminds me of a typical Stellaris game/run xD
It is a masterpiece series. Incredible.
Nice!
This is really great! Narrator is up there with the best I’ve ever heard. This Sci-Fi is a first of me…. Loving it!! THANK YOU. 💜❤️👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Full of fun and action, with talented narrator Christian Rummel doing a brilliant job, as usual.
This has to be one of the best narrators on audio book that I've come across
One of My favorite. Fear and loathing also good. And on the road.

@@fishfootface invaders battle for earth was my first audio book from him i heard was amazing! Such a good narrator
Other than it being fictional yes😂😂
Love the narrators voice!!
This is a great story with a fantastic narrator he brings it to life I can listen and drift away like when I was a young nerd loving science fiction
says the old nerd loving scifi hhh !
love how this series have their unique series feel to it.

i got tired of this.... after 18 books.... Thanks Vaughn
badass - thanks!
See a lot of complaining, but I found it interesting. It does a good job of gradually integrating and explaining the progression of understanding of what seems to be a pretty in depth universe
The best part for me is when the alien called the united states the "American techno wizards."
Another sc-fi book where a villain has a Russian or east Euro accent. For Christ sake why is it always that accent, I am tired of it.
I totally agree
@@billygoat520 well one of our primary real life villains is currently Russian, so it feels fair.

It's a great story, fast paced and fun. Rollo is kind of a drag but, hey you get what you pay. . .
Spoiler alert!!?!? " you go left I go right" just an alien lander.. Gotta love it!
Zerg from starcraft was my child hood
I really enjoy this book it has it moments of pure ballshit but I love it
I'm just into the first part before the main character sees the aliens and I love it.

Yea but just go with it , the STAR VIKING book after this series is why I'm here
He was enhanced I thought 😮
Yea, when he said "lugging a .50 cal MG" I absentmindedly said Bull Shit!
