Book description
Kindle Storyteller Award Winner. Forsaken Commander. That's not just a title-it's a gut punch you feel in your bones the moment you press play. Imagine the crackle of a dying comms channel, the metallic groan of a ship under siege, and then... silence. His silence. Master Commander Carter Rose, Union's secret weapon, bio-engineered legend, cast aside like yesterday's trash after delivering victory. A century of exile. A century of ghosts whispering in the void. Now? He's back. And the Aternien Empire isn't just coming for humanity-they're gods wearing ancient Egyptian masks, fueled by vengeance, ready to erase the stars themselves.
This isn't just sci-fi. This is war whispered in the static of your headphones. The narrator doesn't speak-it roars. You hear the grit in Carter's voice when he says, "They called me a weapon. Then they threw me away." You feel the tension in his crew's breath over comms as they infiltrate a hostile world, bioweapons hissing like serpents in the dark. Every line crackles with the weight of betrayal-the way trust shatters like glass, the metallic tang of fear when you realize no one is who they claim to be. The Aterniens aren't just enemies; they're myth made flesh, their warships humming with the rhythm of forgotten tombs, their tactics dripping with the arrogance of gods.
You'll hear the sizzle of a warship's engines as Carter returns to his legendary vessel, the one built for him alone. You'll feel the cold sweat on his neck as he navigates a web of lies where every ally might be a traitor. The stakes? Not just a battle. Not just a war. Humanity's last breath. Billions hanging on every decision, every whispered secret in the dead of night. The narrator doesn't just tell you the story-he forces you into the cockpit, the command deck, the heart of the storm. You hear the scrape of Carter's knuckles on steel, the ragged gasp of a dying comrade, the eerie, echoing chants of the Aternien warlords as they march toward conquest.
This isn't background noise. It's a pulse. The sound design-creaking metal, distant explosions, the chilling hum of alien tech-pulls you deeper, making every turn feel like it's happening now. You're not reading about Carter's struggle; you're there, shoulder-to-shoulder with the crew, feeling the weight of their augments, the sting of their losses. When the narrator drops that line-"Trust is scarcer than oxygen in the void"-it's not a metaphor. It's a knife twist in your gut. Because in this war, everyone has a price. And the price of survival? It might be your soul.
Dive into the abyss. Let the voice of the betrayed commander drag you into the heart of an empire falling to its own gods. Let the sound of a galaxy on the edge of extinction pull you in, deeper, darker, hungrier. This is the beginning. And when the final transmission fades... you won't just have heard a story. You'll have lived it. The Union of Nine is counting on you. Now. Start listening. Your last hope is waiting in the static.

TrinitySoul
With this app, I can enjoy my favorite stories while traveling, making my journeys more delightful. Not bad, but not amazing either. The narratorβs voice was pleasant, though some parts felt a bit rushed. The story had its moments, but I wouldnβt necessarily recommend it over similar titles in the genre. Decent narration, predictable story. The voice actor did a good job, but the plot followed a familiar formula. If youβre looking for something new and groundbreaking, this might not be it.
