    About this audiobook

    In Taylor Anderson's acclaimed Destroyermen series, a parallel universe adds an extraordinary layer to the drama of World War II. Now, Lieutenant Commander Matthew Reddy, the crew of the U.S.S. Walker, and their allies battle an ever-growing host of enemies across the globe in a desperate battle for freedom . . .War has engulfed the other earth. With every hard-won victory and painful defeat, Matt Reddy and the Allies encounter more friends-and even more diabolical enemies. Even, at last, in the arms of the woman he loves, there is little peace for Reddy.nbsp; The vast sea, and the scope of the conflict, have trapped him too far away to help on either front, but that doesn't mean he and Walker can rest. Cutting short his "honeymoon," Reddy sails off in pursuit ofnbsp; Hidoiame , a rogue Japanese destroyer that is wreaking havoc in Allied seas. Now that Walker is armed with the latest "new" technology, he hopes his battle-tested four-stacker has an even chance in a straight-up fight against the bigger ship-and he means to take her on. Elsewhere, the long-awaited invasion of Grik "Indiaa" has begun, and the Human-Lemurian Alliance is pushing back against the twisted might of the Dominion. The diplomatic waters seethe with treachery and a final, terrible plot explodes in the Empire of New Britain Isles.nbsp; Worse, the savage Grik have also mastered "new" technologies and strategies. Their fleet of monstrous ironclads-and an army two years in the making-are finally massing to strike . . .

      This is the 7th novel in the Destroyermen series. For a sequel (actually a continuation of the story) this is as good as the previous novels.This continues the saga of Captain Reddy and his intrepid destroyer 'Walker' transportered by a storm to a new Earth that is similar, but with huge differences in species and geography. I'm pleased to have learned that book 8 is now available.The scope of this series is reminiscent of Asimov's Foundation series, in which a whole new universe and a variety of societies are created. The scenes are vivid, the characters varied and real, the issues modern in scope and the story line one of the best I've ever read.The only thing that concerned me were the lack of drawings or pictures of the various species. It would really help as the descriptions, though detailed, left much to be desired. While the Lemurians are fairly easy to depict, the Grik and various other creatures could use the art work.I actually went out and bought this novel after reading the previous two in the series. I have not read the first 3. I would recommend this novel to anyone who enjoys action and adventure, war and all the small details that brings Taylor's world to life.Excellent read.
    • 3/5
      The battles continue in book 7 of 9. By now, the reader is accustomed to the technology inject and the static fighting between multiple entities as the war plods on for multiple volumes. There are still multiple story lines and one of them keeps popping up at the end of each book: "Gee, where did that come from?" Not much got resolved, the enemies are still the same and the USS Walker crew dwindles. I wonder what will happen next?
    • 4/5
      Ok, this series is getting complicated. The lemorians have invaded India to take on the Grik. The Dom manages to badly hurt the Empire and the Walker is badly maimed while fighting a Japanese Destroyer. A fun series but it's getting to be very busy.
