Publisher's summary
The colony on Haven-7 has gone rogue.
The colonists have split into two factions: the Techborn and the Dusters. The Techborn have always ruled the planet. They control the remnants of the crashed starship that brought humanity to this new world. The Dusters… they eat Techborn dust.
Now, the Techborn strength is waning. Their weapons are getting old, and radiation leaks from the aging reactors have created mutations. Some of these, like their brutish troops known as Tuskers, have proven useful—but others are abominations.
When the Dusters rebel, civil war breaks out. Special Forces operative Dane Tanner is transmitted to Haven-7 to stabilize the colony… by any means necessary.
The Techborn is the thrilling first book of the Rift Warrior series. With millions of copies sold, USA Today bestselling author B. V. Larson is the king of modern military science fiction.

Story
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....

For years, pilots who merely looked like soldiers were adequate. They filled the mechs. They filled roles. They supported Spann and his genetic offshoot of pure-blooded warriors known as the Superba. Spann's dream of absolute power ends with a single, crushing blow as a new enemy strikes at the Realm, leaving no survivors—followed by a mad dash to find fighters who can stand up in the old ways, using the mechs gifted to humanity by their oldest allies. Even in the midst of war, there is hope.

Story
When Van Tudor returns to his childhood home, he inherits more than the family farm. His grandfather used to tell him fantastic stories of spacemen and monsters, princesses and galactic knights. Little did Van realize, the old man's tales were more than fiction; they were real. Hidden beneath the old barn, Van’s legacy is waiting: a starship, not of this world. With his combat AI, an android bird named Perry, Van takes his first steps into the wider galaxy. He soon finds that space is far busier and more dangerous than he could have ever conceived.

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.

Good for background noise
I didn't hate it. I didn't love it. It's the type of book and story that's good for when you're doing projects or chores without needing to pay attention to every word. I just never felt invested in the groups.

He writes the same book over and over again
It's really simple, Larson, continues to write the same tired book over and over again. It is a Neanderthal Flash Gordon. Things that make no sense other than to facilitate the advancement of this silly ultra-man nonsense, The main character's incessant ogling and description of every woman in the book is tiresome. It would really be nice to have some more thoughtful and imaginative narratives in these books, but I fear that Larson is not capable of anything beyond this simple trite tripe.

Pitiful
Larson can normally pull off his "Hick-Main-Character, Low-Tech" approach to telling a Sci-Fi story, but not this time.
The Narrator's quavering "Old Man Voice" got *OLD* YEARS ago, but it has simply become grating now.
Combined, this book turned out to be a pitiful effort... which is disappointing, because I eagerly await Larson's newest "* World" books... Whatever -this- effort was, I don't know.
Sorry, I'm blaming Covid for the horrible books being spewed out by authors and narrators in the last few years.
