Mutineer's Moon

By: David Weber

Narrated by: Jonathan Todd Ross

Mutiny

For Lt. Commander Colin Maclntyre, it began as a routine training flight over the moon. For Dahak, a self-aware Imperial battleship, it began millennia ago when that powerful artificial intelligence underwent a mutiny in the face of the enemy. The mutiny was never resolved - Dahak was forced to maroon not just the mutineers but the entire crew on prehistoric Earth.

Dahak has been helplessly waiting as the descendants of the loyal crew regressed while the mutineers maintained control of technology that kept them alive as the millennia passed. But now Dahak’s sensors indicate that the enemy that devastated the Imperium so long ago has returned - and Earth is in their path. For the sake of the planet, Dahak must mobilize its defenses. And that it cannot do until the mutineers are put down. So Dahak has picked Colin Maclntyre to be its new captain. Now Maclntyre must mobilize humanity to destroy the mutineers once and for all - or Earth will become a cinder in the path of galactic conquest.

A Masterful telling of a Masterful story

I'm biased I admit, but I came by it honestly. I first came across this book while I was attending Military School. The story of Dahak changed the way I looked at the moon and cast my own imaginings to what secrets it could hold.

To hear one of my all time favorite science fiction stories ever, presented in such a great format as this audio book has transported me back to those first days of my youth spent enjoying this title.

The narration is top notch, you appreciate every character and I'll admit, impressed me with how well executed a certain character's manner of speaking, if you know you know. My hat off to this wonderful treasure so well told.

Terrific storyline. Great fun!

Terrific creative storyline. Great fun during the several action parts! Interpersonal parts drag a bit.

Excellent Adventure!

This is an exciting book full of human insights and thoughtful actions. Do not miss it!

Even better the second time !!!

I love this story . Even better brought to life . Make a movie of this !

just not my cup of tea.

I like David Webers other works. I've listened to many of his books and enjoyed each and every one. I struggle mightily to make it through the first 9 hours of this book the last couple hours had much more action and was much easier to follow maybe it was me but I just couldn't get into it.
