Story
Jack Kernigan is having a bad day...a bad year...a bad life. After being booted out of MIT, he’s back in his Ohio hometown, working for the family business, facing a life of mediocrity. Then one day, out on a delivery, his truck hits...something. Something big...something furry...something invisible. And, it turns out, something not of this Earth. Fate can play funny tricks. Which is why Jack suddenly finds himself the planet’s best hope to unravel a conspiracy of galactic proportions that could spell the end of the human race.

We were fighting on the wrong side of a war we couldn't win. And that was the good news. The Ruhar hit us on Columbus Day. There we were, innocently drifting along the cosmos on our little blue marble, like the native Americans in 1492. Over the horizon come ships of a technologically advanced, aggressive culture, and BAM! There go the good old days, when humans only got killed by each other. So, Columbus Day. It fits. When the morning sky twinkled again, this time with Kristang starships jumping in to hammer the Ruhar, we thought we were saved.

In the 20th century Earth sent probes, transmissions, and welcoming messages to the stars. Unfortunately, someone noticed. The Galactics arrived with their battle fleet in 2052. Rather than being exterminated under a barrage of hell-burners, Earth joined their vast Empire. Swearing allegiance to our distant alien overlords wasn't the only requirement for survival. We also had to have something of value to trade, something that neighboring planets would pay their hard-earned credits to buy. As most of the local worlds were too civilized to have a proper army, the only valuable service Earth could provide came in the form of soldiers....

Story
Centuries in the past, mankind fought a seemingly unbeatable adversary from sector to sector across the Spiral Arm until the war ground to a standstill and the Enemy withdrew. Believing that they had won, the citizens of the galaxy rebuilt. The Inner Worlds, which had escaped the worst of the war's ravages, became even more insular, while the Rim worlds adopted a free and easy way with law and order. Now, hundreds of years after their withdrawal, the Enemy is back - and this time they'll be satisfied with nothing less than the extinction of the galaxy.

Story
In the 25th century, humans have conquered space. The advent of faster-than-light travel has opened up hundreds of habitable planets for colonization, and humans have exploited the virtually limitless space and resources for hundreds of years with impunity. So complacent have they become with the overabundance that armed conflict is a thing of the past, and their machines of war are obsolete and decrepit. What would happen if they were suddenly threatened by a terrifying new enemy?

They tried to destroy our planets. Our way of life. They tried to send us into extinction. But we, the Coalition, fought them and won. That was a decade ago. They’re known as the Host: a cabal of aliens seeking to dominate our sector of space. And they’re back - with help from a powerful new enemy. We’re outnumbered and unprepared. But there is hope. An ancient race of long-dead but technologically advanced aliens called the Navigators have a ship called the Blackstar that could potentially turn the tide. That is if I, Kai Locke, a humble ship racer, can find it and learn how to harness its power in time.

Would it make you happy? Not likely! Now imagine you're stronger, faster, and more coordinated than every alien species you encounter. Would you start kicking some ass? Of course you would! This is the story of human superiority in the galaxy, a gritty, realistic profile of a young Navy SEAL who doesn't like aliens very much - and he makes them pay for the bad mood he's in.

Fluff, fluffy, fluff
What did you like best about The Silver Ships? What did you like least?
Interesting story in there somewhere. The second book covers all the first book in the first 10 minutes, thus, first book not even needed. This book is an example how an author can extend a simple story into a series - spend 2 pages on how to make toast! So, if you like fluff, details that do not extend the story, plow through this one - there is a good story in here.

love the story
I thought the story was very good. The reader was easy to listen to but I would have preferred he used more voices in his reading. Most male readers try to raise their tone for women and change it up for men. This one mostly read all the characters in the same sound.

As a space opera, this first book in the series has great promise. The characters are relatable and their development offer a hint of a classic sci-fi style. Silver Ships’ opening tome left me with looking forward to volume 2.

Exceptional start to The Silver Ships series
Grover Gardeners’ presentation is as spot on, as ever. This first book of the series establishes a good premise that I imagine will be as enjoyable as the Vorkosigan Saga by another author. That series was also performed by Grover Gardner.

Finally
Would you consider the audio edition of The Silver Ships to be better than the print version?
It has been a LONG time since I had a book that was reminiscent of the old school science fiction... filled with ideas, science, drama, morals, and was interesting. I did not want to stop, and at the end, was left wanting more. Great Job!
Who was your favorite character and why?
The main character is Alex. He is humble, ingenious, likeable, loyal, and believable. He proves to be a great leader and role model.
