Into the Fire

Rise of the Republic, Book 5

By: James Rosone, T.C. Manning

Narrated by: Jonathan Davis

Ultimately, the decisions of the admirals were the Viceroy's responsibility. Could the losses have been avoided?

Down on Alfheim, the situation was dire. Some brave men and women had to be left behind for the greater good. Viceroy Miles Hunt, gutted by the losses, needed to stay focused. A Titan-class warship, the Freedom, could be the key to victory, if it were fully operational with a trained crew.

It was not. Could Miles find another ally to be a wild card?

Sam, the medical Synth, faced something the programmers never expected: a moment where the only option was to break free of the code. The battle was fierce and there didn't seem to be a way out, until Sam came up with a plan.

Would it save them?

The Republic needed a big win, one that would force peace, but they might have underestimated the resolve of the Zodarks. The superships were on the way, but time wasn't on their side.

The tide of the war had shifted.

Great Performance Fun Story

I enjoyed the story and the performance.It was gripping, and I am glad into the Calm comes next

The first thing you notice is the Weapons.. As a Retired Officer, I recognized the structure of the Military and some bases.

I enjoyed the story immensely. I will listen to the series again and again. The story is a little wordy, but it's definitely necessary because of the descriptions

Entertaining and detailed

I read the reviews saying that it drags on and was a bit on the apprehensive side. However, in my opinion the book is actually full of detail and color, which is what I enjoy most instead of a more fast paced story line (e.g. Marvel Comics). If that is what you enjoy, I very much recommend this book, and personally am awaiting for the next installment to the series.

a good read

The story was fast moving, yet allowed the reader to get to know the characters, and like them. I looked forward to my two hour a day book time.

At the point where I’m almost done with the series

I really like the series, the use of Special Operations and the main characters are brought to life by the pen, making this a great series.
If you’re a fan of science fiction this book has it all. Good guys really bring out what is right and what is wrong so our heroes know right is might.
