About this listen

Promoted early, Desmond McLaughlin and his mates are now full members of the Hegemony military, with all the rights and duties that rank includes.

Given the benefits of achieving the rank of full adept early, Desmond and company elected to be deployed aboard the battlecruiser Fist of Defiance, a ship that just happened to be part of the Seventh Border Fleet. The same fleet headed by a certain admiral whose daughter was saved by Desmond and his girls.

Now, though, away from the oversight of the academy ships, the reality of his place in the greater galaxy is even closer to home. With his girls at his back, Desmond must do his best to show his capability not only as an adept but also as the clan-male to the newly formed Clan McLaughlin.

Things are never as simple as they seem though, and events march ever forward throughout the greater galaxy. While Desmond’s team might be something special, they are only a very small piece on the very large board of Hegemony of Velvet Stars.

What fresh trouble will Desmond uncover? What new foes will rise up to face Clan McLaughlin? And will Desmond and his family be ready to face them?

Monster Girls In Space is a Sci-Fi, fantasy, semi-military, men’s romance, progression fantasy about a man becoming a space-wizard amongst a universe full of monster girls (it’s in the title, you should have expected that part). Expect adventure, mischief, magic, fighting, and unconventional relationships in a galaxy that is curious what sort of mischief Humanity will get up to.

Magic and Space

There's not much you need to say about a book with monster girls. The magic is interesting and the combat well written with a good blend of seriousness and comedy

great world building

a great expansion to the story - the narrators do a fantastic job bringing it all to life. the plot expands but feels a little padded, so comes across as more of a slice of life, with less action overall.

I hope the wider arc comes up more in the next book, plus maybe a new girl. the book hints at a new joiner but she is only mentioned close to the end of this book, so she feels tacked on, while others get more face time and yet seem to be ignored (i.e. the triplets!!!!) so I hope they get added to his clan too. also, I really want to see a Lahtzu added, just to see how the author tackles it!

can't wait for the next in the series!

Next book when?

Fantastic follow on and expansion of the universe. A peek at the greater plot and adversarial faction was certainly interesting as it pertains to the rifts as well. Can't wait until next book.
