In the future, humanity is facing an interstellar enemy the Blaze collective. Security of the species lies on two sets of shoulders, Blue Earth Protectorate (BEP), in charge of protecting Earth’s solar system with second hand gear and personnel, and Space Fleet with cutting edge technology and best of the best cadres. A previously lying dormant ship of ancient aliens, progenitors (progs) has been discovered and much lies at stake for humanity being able to adapt prog technology to stalemate the conflict for longer or win. Little did they know, the star ship has a sentient AI in charge and has been monitoring humanity all along.
The constant banter between not only space fleet’s shock trooper squad mates but between major and admiral of the space fleet diffuses the supposed tension to a level of a 5 year olds birthday party. The 5 year old is excited so adults support his excitement but most really don’t care. The whole military being completely accepting and reworking it’s doctrine based on supposedly sentient AI’s good will is infantile and doesn’t fit the riged order that military is supposed to have.
Conclusion: 2/5. Listened on Audible included in plus catalogue. Narrated by: Shawn Compton. Space opera, ignore the, from perspective of humans, god-like sentient machine. It says it’s a pacifist and will support us, the widely known for not having a single year without an active war in it’s history species. Trust it, bro, don’t be an AI-phobe. Terrible value for the length of the book – 1.96 $/hour ( 17.19 $ / 08 hrs 47 mins ).
