About this listen
A retired captain. An experimental starship. A war like no other.
When the research starship Galileo vanishes without a trace, the powers-that-be are quick to bury the incident, eager to prevent escalating tensions that could lead to war. As a former POW, Soren refuses to give the ship up for lost.
His daughter is one of the missing.
Taking matters into his own hands, Soren starts pulling strings and calling in favors, determined to launch a clandestine mission to bring Galileo home. When an old friend offers him a ship for the operation, he expects a rusty relic headed for the scrapyard.
Instead, he's given the Wraith—an unfinished, experimental starship with plenty of potential and just as many problems. A marvel of engineering…if his crew can keep her running.
They’d better.
Because Galileo’s disappearance is just the beginning. War is coming to the Federation from the most unlikely of places.
And Soren may be the only one who can stop it.

Great story, excellent narration
A great story. When Soren's daughters ship disappears he pulls strings and calls in favours to get out into space to search. Given an unfinished experimental warship and a mixed bag of a crew he stumbles on a shocking reality that will threaten the universe. This is a brilliant story with wonderful strong characters and vivid gritty dramatic action especially in the jungle sequences. I will definitely be read more in the series As I must know what happens next. Narration is excellent really adding to the story.

Good voice acting can't save poor writing
The Wraith stacks clichés like the gruff and old (but strong, fit, limber, handsome and adored) main character stacks fish in his retirement.
Rather than explaining things once, everything is reiterated over and over and over and over and over. Something hits, explodes, blasts open, rains debris and leaves a smoking hole. A character stares out into the distance where he will find answers, the great unknown he must tackle, at the uncertain future that he is about to head off into now that he doesn't know what's going on and needs to find answers and come to grips with the uncertainty of it all.
I wish I was kidding. I am not.
The novel has likely not been passed over too many times by an editor or by other writers, and if it has, it most certainly wasn't written for voicework.
2 out of 5, because it would be twice as good with half the words.
