Publisher's summary

Ben never thought owning a starship would be easy. He didn’t expect it to be quite like this.

It was one thing to take a job as a smuggler to pay for basic necessities like maintenance, fuel, and food. Another to have one of the most powerful nobles in the galaxy gunning for him at every turn. But when Keep turns up unexpectedly with a new offer that’s even wilder than the last, will it put him on the path toward his true destiny?

Or is it just another con?

The adventure of a lifetime continues in the follow-up to the number-one sci-fi best seller, Starship for Sale. If you like found starships, unlikely heroes, and intergalactic mayhem, you’ll love the Starship for Sale series.

S Kaye

Yup, still like series. Entertaining and now I truly like the characters. Especially Shack! Darling little creature, but you don’t want to be on his bad side. Looking forward to the next one. Dave does a good job!

Another 5 Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Sometimes the second book struggles to keep up with the first... Not the case here! The story keeps pace and moves forward without losing a step. Again excellent narration. I would say that as more characters are added, that the narrator would get a boost from the depth of dule narrators.

Enjoyed it!

Fun story with likeable and interesting characters. It takes a couple of unlikely and very human protagonists and puts them in crazy situations. I highly recommend it.

An intertaining enjoyable story

While the basic nugget for the origin of the story comes from the 1984 movie "The Last starfighter" that is the only part. The rest is a positive creative orginal story. I get tired of the dark space war stories. This is Not that.

amazing in every way

this is my current favorite books series. this audio reading of it is incredible. Dave Jackson does the perfect job bringing these incredible stories to life.

Short for one credit.

Good short story. two of these books would be well worth one credit. and the first two books and then cliffhangers. I see where we're going here.

Book two and this story picks up the pace

This second book picked up the pace a bit in plot development. I like this turn of events!

Lacking from book 1

I hoped this story would build from book 1 and it failed. The prison sequence while introducing two new characters was too long and boring. At the half way point the action began again anew and it got me back into the story. Book three looms with our main character about to be tortured. I hope the author does better job moving along.

Suck it up sweetheart

The story is decent and the performance is decent but…. I am still tired of the main character being a whiny bitch. I do like the story but Ben is so tiring. I don’t want to shot at the good guys blah blah blah. Shot the stupid ships in your way who cares if they are only doing their job. They knew what they signed up for so stop being a little bitch. Maybe I’m heartless maybe I find VET tv a little too funny but I’m so tired of the main character of every book being a pansy. I don’t need a main character getting in touch with his feelings. Do what needs to be done and call it a day. I like the story as a whole but the bitchy main character is too much for me. Wont be reading or listening to the rest of the series.
