Galaxy Man

Galaxy Man Series, Book 1

By: Mark Wayne McGinnis

Narrated by: James Patrick Cronin

The year is 2117. In the farthest reaches of Earth's territorial space, a spree of depraved murders has local cattle ranchers fearing for their families. A fear, they will soon discover, that is more than justified.

Apparently, John Gallic's reputation proceeded his arrival to the fringe-world of Muleshoe. A reputation suggesting he be given a wide berth. As the new Territory Abettor, commonly referred to as a Frontier Marshal, Gallic would be there for the long haul.

Formally titled Detective Chief Inspector of the Spatial Colonial Police - District 22 - he'd investigated only the highest profile murders and was a rising star within the department. But that life was in the past. Gallic now provided an assortment of backwater law enforcement services to the burgeoning deep-space frontier territories. Sure, there was an occasional small-time crime to investigate, but more often than not Gallic spent his days - commissioned by the big Interstellar banks - repossessing billionaire ranchers' high-priced spacecraft. A glorified repo man. He was fine with that. It gave him spare time to do the one thing more important than anything else - find the murderer of his wife and child.

See you later SpaceCowboy

best book for spacecowboys ive heard yet worth a listen and the narrator has excellent voices

once a lawman etcetera

I liked the rugged old west stick to your beliefs attitude of the MC. For a Space-Opera, it was a fun listen. Again the narration was excellent which inturn enhanced the story.

Started strong, then, just kind of went nowhere

I liked the beginning a lot. The main character was broken, yet strong and driven. Then, there were just too many childish actions and retorts. I lost interest half way through. But, oddly enough, wanted to see what would happen to this man after he solved the crime(s). I purchased this book thinking it will be a series. After all, Audible lists this title as book 1 (of presumably a series). Obviously, the writer had no intention of it being such. So, yeah, kinda feel duped.

Great Marriage of Sci Fi & Detective Genre's

Loved this adventure, just felt a little rushed at the ending. Hoping there will be a sequel.

Will be a good series

This is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors. I like his style and imagination. I'm looking forward to more titles from him. Thank you for another great one!
