The Riss Accession

The Riss Series, Book 4

By: C. R. Daems

Narrated by: Raquel Beattie

With invading aliens determined to confine humans to their planets, one thing is certain: The Aliens' force is technologically superior to the SAS, and even with the new Riss technology the clans have developed under Nadya Reese's supervision, the SAS cannot defeat them alone.

But forging an alliance between the SAS, UFN, and JPU will not be easy. It will require the empires to put aside their long history of border wars and mutual dislike. Worse, many in the SAS hate Riss-humans, especially Nadya. As a consequence, maintaining the Mutual Support Agreement between the Riss and the SAS is proving impossible. And then there is the issue of sharing technology with recent enemies, the question of leadership, and Nadya's involvement. The JPU only recently had bounties on Riss-humans, and Riss hides are prized in the UFN and JPU.

Nadya's not so sure the Alien's idea of confining the war-like humans to their planets isn't a good idea. But the fate of the Riss is tied to the humans, so whatever her doubts, she must act.

Don't Change Narrators!!!

Well, I don't know why this happens. It's so disappointing when narrators are changed mid-series. Beattie is decent, but is nothing compared to the previous narrator (DeCuir?) The male voices pale by comparison and the story loses integrity. So, so annoying. I'll buy the book now instead, but I won't buy this narrator. CR Daems, what were you thinking?

Good listen

I've enjoyed this series of books. The storyline has been consistent, the characters interesting, the message has been one of tolerance. I hope others will take the time to listen to this series because it is well worth the credit. 😁😀😉😃

narrator issues, but overall OK

prefer the other narrator but I continue to love Reese so here I am. I really wish we stuck with the other narrator especially for the way she brought Thelia to life. the laugh she gave, solid acting. this narrator is great sure but not after the previous one

Narrator change unfortunate

The narrator for the first 3 books was perfect for these characters Changing midstream to another was a dramatically poor decision. I see all the following books had way reduced numbers of readers and reviews.

Can't stop listening

I usually only listen while walking or driving, but I've listened almost non stop through the first four books, just now staring the fifth.
