Mutineer's Moon

De: David Weber

Narrado por: 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.

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.

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.

outstanding

this was my first David weber book I ever read I have waited years and years for this to go to audible I cant wait for the rest as it introduced me to one of my favorite authors I hope the rest of this story comes soon and hope the do apocalypse troll as well some of his earlier work it's nice to see how these early books led to some of his other series in part or ideas

Finally !

I love this story and have read it many times.
I've waited so long for the Audible version. Thank you !
Please complete the story with "Empire From the Ashes".

Good story narrated well.

I read this year's ago and enjoyed it so much I went audio. JTR did a good job reading. Sweet!

this guy REALLY doesn't like unions

Space opera doesn't normally top my list unless it's got A LOT of sci-fi in it. (Well thought out projections of future tech) But you get what you pay for with this series: Ren-geeks and strange random anti-union diatribes, (which is especially ironic, considering the quality of work here is what you'd expect from a scab during a writers' strike.)

In an epiphany that occurred while writing this review, I just realized why Amazon might be a fan of this series.

Disappointed

This book started off really great, and I enjoyed the new concept of the story! However as is David Weber's normal way of writing, like he did in the Safehold series, it rapidly deteriorated into a political nightmare, battle, etcetera, which I really don't care for!
