About this listen

The sequel to The Rookie, The Starter is a star-spanning coming-of-age space opera combined with the gritty world of organized crime, all set against a backdrop of a far-future professional football league. Nineteen-year-old second-year quarterback Quentin Barnes has overcome racism and unified his team. He led the Ionath Krakens to a lower-tier championship, a championship that earned them promotion into the meat grinder known as "Tier One."

Now, Quentin and his teammates have to compete against the greatest football teams ever assembled, and do far more than just survive each game. As he rebuilds the team in his own image, Quentin's true quest for a Tier One championship begins.

Read the stories the he writes!

I'm not a sports fan (shut up!you don't know me!) but I have been gripped and entertained thoroughly by FDO with his portrayal of every character and his time spent in creating a whole universe of future history and races. keep them coming and I'll keep listening.

I'm 50 and English and hand never been into sport. let alone American football. listened to these when on podcast and bought as soon as i got audible. they are amazing to listen to. I've listened to the entire series over and over and am always engrossed and in awe of the reading. awesome books. try them. awesome series. all the side stories are amazing too listen to s well. Stone wolves and the gangster are a must. other books he's worn are just a amazing. Earhtcore, Mount Fitzroy, Ancestor, and later the Crypt. thank you Scott but the best are read by you too!

Great group of books and concept! Work of a genius 👍🏽

Love Scott Siglers work especially when he narrates also! GFL is by far my favourite and cannot wait for the next book. Keep up the good work!
