Men of War

The Lost Regiment, Book 8

De: William R. Forstchen

Narrado por: Patrick Lawlor

It has been over a decade since Andrew Keane's Union regiment was mysteriously pulled away from the Civil War and marooned in time on a hostile alien planet. But now it appears as if everything the Lost Regiment has fought and died for has been in vain.

The unrelenting war against the hordes has taken its toll on the fatigued humans, and the Bantag horde's latest siege has broken the Republic's will to fight. Keane resigns his position in the Republic's government when a peace parley is declared. Gathering the remaining veterans of the 35th Maine to his side, he plans a campaign that will take the Lost Regiment into the heart of the Bantag Empire to annihilate their ability to wage war once and for all. The outcome of this suicide mission will decide the fate of the human race on a world far from Earth.

"One of the most intriguing writers today in the field of historical and military science fiction." (Harry Turtledove)

great ending

what a great way to end the lost regiment series. really great story and worth the time

Loved it.

I have read the entire series and was looking forward to reading the final chapter on my down time from work rotation. Had to stay longer than anticipated and decided to read via Audible. Great Narrator and even better book.

Excellent...

Loved it..you can feel the canons and hear the battle charge. Deserves a movie..Wow

warning

Book 8 is the best and a good ending. The warning Do not buy 9. There is no follow up to the next generation.

Was not disappointed, Great Addtion to the Series

Not every book in the series has been a solid addition, but this one stands out and brings to a close the story for the beloved characters. The end is both unexpected and thought provoking. I admire the strength of character Forstchen wrote into his characters and will miss them as book 9 moves on to focus on the children of the characters that this series has followed. Overall I highly recommend the series, though some of the books are not as good as others the series as whole was well written and well narrated.

Act I Finale

Book 8 was an excellent end to the 1st story. Book 9 is the start of a new story.

Any additional comments?

Read all so far and look forward to the last one, Liked the action and characters in the story line the read was very good also

One of the best series ever.

One of the best series I've listed to. I'm sad to start the next and last book. I know it will be good but hopefully he will revisit this series!

A bittersweet ending to a grand story

There honestly isn't any more to say; if you read the whole series, there's no way you won't cry at the end. I recommend this series to all lovers of freedom and those who honor the blood that was shed to earn and preserve it.

A very good book and a damn good series

A very good book and a damn good series. I'll read these books again and again. I already miss the characters, having grown fond of so many of them through the authors amazing ability to bring them to life. I look forward to the next phase of the series that picks up years afterwards with "Down to the Sea".
