About this listen
There's no good way to prepare yourself to die....
Guerro runs a kill team. They're good. Better than good. Or they were, until they walked into an ambush that wiped his team out and left Guerro for dead.
All the evidence suggests they were betrayed, but by who, and why?
Determined to avenge his team and settle old scores, Guerro embarks upon a one-man war, knowing that whoever put the kill order out on his people is still out there, watching for him to show his face so they can end him.
A hard-biting SF thriller in the vein of Blade Runner, Altered Carbon, and Titanborn.
Narrated by the award-winning R.C. Bray (Galaxy's Edge, The Martian)

One Man's War
Getting the standard and most obvious out of the way, RC Bray was his usual amazing self, cannot fault his performance in any way.
The story in itself felt a little short, there wasn't enough background to the overall universe this was set in that gave things a little bit of a vague feel to it. Without trying to ruin the overall plot the backstory into the main characters also felt a little short so I struggled to really form any investment into caring about them.
Overall it was an interesting story but just fell a little short of getting into any real depth.

Great book, great performance
Fast paced military sci-fi book with the usual outstanding level of performance from RC Bray. Will be looking out for more instalments in this universe.

The Narrator did a brilliant job of adding the mai
It was an interesting twist on the whole revenge thing, it was also very extremely well thought out. The Author thought of the tiniest of details, to bring the story to life.
The Narrator did a brilliant job of adding the main character’s nark.

Good old fashioned well thought out caper
Nice new take on the con and counter con - what happens when you double cross someone you should not. Awesome RC Bray narrating makes this an excellent few hours of entertainment.

‘We had a choice. To be the f**ked or the absolutely f**king f**ked’
Wow, what a ride. Action, grit, gun fights, betrayal and the intrigue of a long con... all masterfully narrated by RC Bray.
Literally nothing to fault and I could listen to this all day long.
This is my honest opinion of a free review copy.

For fans of Bladerunner
A cracking read, wonderfully narrated. Just the right mix of action, tension and cheese. The near future world building is deftly handled to create a piece of sci-fi to appeal to fans of Bladerunner.

Ashes, ashes, we all fall down eventually.
Narrator R.C. Bray becomes the adrenaline fueled, money orientated, battle loving assassin Marco, for hire with his team. It's the 22nd Century and several corporations essentially rule the world and the population of sixteen billion. Corporate trouble shouting is often exactly that, and his team of four bleeders - Marco, Swan, Mardigan and Fate - are the best at what they do with over 50 successful missions. Then it all goes wrong, only Marco narrowly escaping with his life. They must have been betrayed. And with simple death too easy on the traitor, Marco forms a new team to revenge his crew and to pull off the con of a lifetime.
Despite it's short duration, and the near constant action, One Man's War still delivers two very memorable characters. The main protagonist in particular, by virtue of being the man recounting the story, becomes not just three dimensional but also someone the reader actually knows well. He is not a pleasant man but has a defined code of conduct, loyalty and keeping his word. The con itself is meticulously plotted and the reader is also treated to backstories of other missions completed before the crew was destroyed. All is told in a cynical, sardonic writing style, perfect for the nature of the book. It is great, especially narrated by Bray, who captures the essence of storyteller and text perfectly as well as individually voicing every protagonist to suite their personalities.
I was fortunate in being freely gifted with a complimentary copy of One Man's War, at my request, by the rights holder. Thank you so much. It is one of those occasional books that I wish could be awarded an extra super star in the ratings. Immaginative, energizing and fun to hear, it was a delight - just over too soon. A definite recommendation to all S.F.fans, as well as lovers of colourful characters, action thrillers and anyone who enjoyed the film, The Sting: it would make a truly explosive film itself.

Excellent story
This book starts off great and carries on throughout the rest of the story. It melds a combination of action humour and tension effortlessly and RC Brays narration brings this brilliantly to life in his usual excellent style. It isn’t the longest book. It that doesn’t matter as you will be totally absorbed into the story and by the end want to listen to it again.
Totally recommend this for all fans of mil sci-fi

Revenge is sweet
After there final mission together goes wrong, Marco Guerro is out for revenge, but who was to blame!! Good book that moves at a nice pace, the only problem is the con seems to be far to complex for just revenge.
RC Bray does his usual good performance, keeps the story moving along nicely.
