Starship Freedom

Starship Freedom, Book 1

By: Daniel Arenson

Narrated by: Kyf Brewer

The starship Freedom is just a museum ship...until the aliens attack.

The starship Freedom was once a mighty warship. Today, she's a tourist attraction. The space wars ended long ago. The Freedom is now a flying museum; the tourists love it. The Changing of the Guard, the starfighter aerobatics, the starboard cannon salute...it's the best show in the galaxy.

James King commands the starship Freedom. He hates his job. He was a real soldier once, back when the Freedom was a real warship. He never imagined himself running a tourist trap. Right after Christmas, he plans to retire. Then, on Christmas day, the aliens attack. Horrifying aliens. Creatures of claws, fangs, and endless malice. Within hours, they devastate Earth's military. Millions die. So much for retirement.

The aliens spare the starship Freedom. After all, she's only a tourist attraction. But not to Commander King. He will get his beloved starship battle-ready. He will enter the fight. The Freedom will fly to war again!

Battlestar Galactica meets Starship Troopers in this sci-fi adventure from Daniel Arenson, the USA Today best-selling author of Earthrise.

enjoyable listening

l have enjoyed listening to this book, we have a old warship turned into a tourist attraction in space. But its the only thing standing between earth and a alien invasion.

Awesome Story!

I like how Daniel Arenson really captures the struggle over insurmountable odds and makes you feel the struggle as if you were there. overall good story. I like children of earthrise better but this close

Great Book

Very entertaining to listen to and relax to. The story makes you want to continue to listen or read the next book

good

Loved it !! this story. the narrator is so fantastic it's like your really there!! After listening to this story,. I totally enjoyed reading this book. It’s well written and the characters were uniquely fantastic. I would suggest this book to my friends that like this sort of genera. this was a good book. The narration was great.

Very Good Listen!!!

Well written! Well performed. Worth the time to listen! On to the other book about the Freedom!

Will Continue, However...

Why do so many sci-fi series ALWAYS have to have the evil aliens look like Spiders???? I hate spiders. Could someone be creative and invent a new alien?????
PLEASE!

Too detailed

Over all not bad but keeps going into detail at the wrong times
Author was trying to use different words for standard items like mech
Takes a way from the flow

Physics

There is usually no top speed for a spacecraft. Only a top acceleration. A bridge crew not strapped in for combat? Not likely. That’s like driving on the freeway without a seatbelt. And if you paraphrase a quote you should still attribute it. Like “ FULL SPEED AHEAD AND DAMB THE PLASMA”. A misquote of Commodore Perry.

Suprisingly Excellent! Much More than expected...

Since I am a "steadfast" science fiction fan - especially those, which narrative includes outer space - I have cherished this audio book, much more than I had originally expected. As such, I recommend it to others, who share my enthusiasm for this genre.

starts slow but dammit when gets going

This great book started slow and just kept getting better and better. keep up good work like this
