About this listen
Far from Earth, in a distant solar system, clone soldiers are stuck in an on-going battle against colonial separatists. John 999801 must battle against an enemy that refuses to give up and dreams of a woman he feels he's seen before. The life of this low-ranking clone soldier is about to take a turn for the worst. Or is it going to open his eyes to the truth?
Can one clone soldier make a difference? And who is the woman in his dream?
Answers and horrors await him as he joins his fellow replicas to the surface of a planet called...Hell.

Fake war.
Wonderful short story.
The author Jeff Walker managed to write a great full story in such a short book and in perfection.
This is a space war story using clones but the real story behind the story is that clones are no different from humans, they feel, love, hate and die just like all of us.
Excellent, beautiful and
awesome !
What a twist, a conspiracy of
an epic compulsion.
Jack de Golia narrated perfectly each of the characters in this creation.
Recommended !!!

It always starts with a dream.
Some time past, Earth's President had declared martial law and war was declared on rebellious settlers, and under the slogan 'One flag, one identity, one earth', deep in space the fighting began.
And continued. And didn't stop, long after contact with Earth itself was lost.
The soldiers fighting were clones and all seemed to share the same gung ho approach to going into battle. All but John, known as Mac. He longed for an end to hostilities, of peace, and meeting the girl in his dreams. Perhaps, he thought, that was because he was not a sodier. He was an engineer. Until, that is, the day his commander put him into the military ranks with the others and sent them all down to fight on the planet known as Hell.
What starts as a slightly quirky, but predictable military S.F. story morphs into something unexpected as the reader follows John in his mission to fight to the death for Earth and his fellow soldiers. Well written, it is easy to experience John's emotions even if the characterisation is not overly deep. And, after it is finished, The long lost War continues to echo in the mind of the reader...
Nicely narrated by Jack De Golia, whose clear pronunciation and intonation, convey the emotions felt by all of the protagonists, and his voicings of each individual character keeps them clearly defined: a good performance.
I received this book, at my request, as a freely gifted complimentary copy from the rights holder. Thank you so much. I had anticipated an action military S.F. story and, yes, this is what I received. But much more: well worth a read for all sci fi fans. Recommended.
