About this listen
Quinton Aldren thought he could leave his past behind him.... He was wrong.
First came the development of a Personality Matrix Construct - PMC, transferring human consciousness into a machine. It changed the galaxy and the way wars were fought. Then something went wrong with PMCs and the Federation Wars toppled the galactic order. PMCs became a menace to be hunted and exterminated.
Long after the Federation Wars, the galaxy limps on. Spacers carve out an existence upon the bones of the old worlds, but things are about to change...something has begun broadcasting signals to reactivate PMCs that were stored in secret.
Quinton Aldren is a PMC. His consciousness was uploaded and stored over a century ago, before the Federation Wars. All Quinton wants is to leave his past behind, but the broadcasts keep occurring. More PMCs are coming online, and not all of them are entirely stable. Federation War machines are on the hunt for them, and they don’t care who gets in their way.
Acheron Salvation is a fast-paced science fiction novel in the classic space opera and military sci-fi traditions, by Amazon best-selling author Ken Lozito.

A Good second book
I enjoyed this book. I thought that the good plot established in the first book was taken forward in a satisfying manner. I enjoyed seeing the characters develop. I read the first book on a Kindle so this was my first time listening to it. I enjoyed the narrator’s performance.
Looking forward to seeing where the author goes with this...
Spoiler Warning...
I felt very sorry for Hopper, (Harper?) I felt he had a very raw deal.

Not enough progression
The story is ok-ish, but after the first book I really wished for more progression of the characters, story and world building.
In the first book the MC was hamstrung due to his unfortunate situation, but we had an interplay between the MC and two captains, each with their own motivation. Add in some pretty high-action situations and the story was pretty decent.
In this book, one of those two characters falls away and we are left with a MC that seems unwilling or unable to muster any motivation of his own, in a situation where he has a lot of freedom. There is also a lot less action in this story, It feels like there would be plenty of time to reflect what happened to the characters over the course of the first book and set out in some way. But the characters seem almost distracted by small slights, even after what they went through in the first book.
There is no real progression in plot, character development or in the story arc. I kept reading to see if something would happen, but I just lost interest, the MC flips between angry, indignant and indifferent but does not address his own morals or point of view. The plot is lost and the interesting world set up in the first book hardly makes it into this book.
In short, we don't get to know where the MC stands, 2/3 into this book the story complete stagnates and revolves around petty squabbles while the world around them seems to maybe get worse? I got bored while reading, stopped.
