Summary

A dirty deal was struck. Humanity was allowed to keep 300 rebellious worlds. In return, we declared war on a powerful enemy from beyond the frontier.

A frantic build-up of forces has begun, but the task is hopeless. Seeking allies, Earth's legions are sent to Blood World. A planet on the fringe of known space, where the people only respect masters of combat. Earth's Legions must impress them, but other alien powers have been invited to join the contest. The prize consists of billions of loyal troops - Earth must win.

Fighting and dying and fighting again, the struggle is half-mad - but so is James McGill.

Blood World is the eighth book in the Undying Mercenaries Series.

Great book

If you liked the previous 7 instalment, you will love this one.

I just however have to say that pre-emptive side dig at Deech was amazing in the case he won.

Key character voice change is jarring.

Why did clayber's voice change? its super jarring, it went from a slow deep voice, to fast extra thick texan accent that is much higher in tone.

Wow...

Yet again I'm left clawing for the next book. Mr Larson, I beg you to please never stop writing these tales. Everyone is Movie, Series and opera worthy. If for these words only, please never stop.

And to the performer. You are the voice, character recreation and breath of life to Larsons every word. I thank the gods you both have met. Never stop reading to me.

Thank you, thank you, thank you...
