Summary
Two centuries ago, the First Expansionary Fleet set off to the farthest reaches of the galaxy, hoping to explore, colonize, and conquer new worlds in the name of humanity. But when the fleet was violently and unexpectedly thrown off course, the colonists found themselves trapped in an unexplored region of the galaxy—and caught right in the middle of a bloody interstellar war.
Now, after generations of relentless fighting, a tentative truce has finally ushered in an era of growth and prosperity. Yet as hardline forces on all sides conspire to break the ceasefire, humanity finds itself in need of a new type of soldier—one who can win the peace even while the galaxy arms for war.
Major Kal Zeris is the next generation of Dominion trooper, a powerful psionic soldier capable of withstanding—and dishing out—superhuman amounts of punishment. Born naturally on a crime-infested border world, Kal has learned to do whatever it takes to survive. But when he finds himself paired up with a sheltered young fleet cadet, he quickly learns that despite what her flawless, genetically engineered body may have given her in looks and smarts, there is no replacement for good, old-fashioned experience—on the battlefield. And luckily for her, Kal is eager and willing to help.
Together, they must unravel a conspiracy that threatens to end the peace—and destroy the Lost Fleet before it can find its way home.
Incursion is the first installment in The Lost Fleet trilogy, an action-packed power fantasy in the spirit of Battlestar Galactica, Mass Effect, and Star Trek (the good version).

Best Sci-Fi Novel in the genre!
Okay, this was honestly one of the best audiobook I've listened to in the genre for a while and easily the best Sci-fi novel.
Conspires, multiple factions, class systems and an endless universe for stories to unfold The Lost Fleet follows Major Kal Zeris who began is life on a small, back water planet before enlisting in the imperial military as he looks to navigate an uncertain future whilst keeping promises to an old friend.
This was the first time I've heard of Sarah Hawke but she did a really great job with this book and hopefully the series will be more than the trilogy it was initially planned to be. As of writing this the sequel will be released in just under a week and i'll be sure to pick up a copy.

great story, great setting, great narration,
overall a fantastic setting that really immerses you. the narration is top notch and the characters interesting as a conspiracy unfolds. it does leave you a bit bewildered as you find out about the psychic powers and the various political elements but it's consistent and you build an understanding.
my only complaint is with the "spice". it's very oriented on the MC. The girls seem to exist only to focus on him and it all feels very one way. basically intense foreplay for him then they get the main event and... that's it. and the portrayal is that that's enough. no real build up for them or reciprocation - it makes each encounter feel almost samey, compared to other haremlit stories.
the flip side to that is the plot and action, which are compelling and well choreographed - it's a great sci fi tale of conspiracy and stake-building. will definitely get the next book.

And we are off!
At my request I received a copy of this audiobook in order to give a fair and unbiased review.
Genre: Scifi spacefleet harem
Power dynamics in harem: Girls are attracted to or love MC. MC is assertive. So far there is less harem and more parallel and accepted, sometimes long distance relationships.
Explicit/adult material: Explicit and very well done.
Summary:
Though Major Kal Zeris is a (near) immortal, he is just a normally born man, and not one of the genetically improved humans that are the officers of the flee.t Instead he is a distinguished soldier and part of the ground troops.
When he and his captain finds signs that a once thought eradicated hostile alien species is back. They must find a way to convince humanity and secure peace.
Narration
Voice diversity: Good.
Pacing and intonation: The story is expertly told.
Sex scenes: Well done.
Overall Narration: 4.5/5 stars.
The book’s strengths.
- The relationships feel real does not feel forced. though 3 girls are into the MC it doesn't feel too fast in part because of their past histories.
- Space fleet politics and possible war between interesting species. The world building is engaging and interesting.
- The girls are very different both in personality and physicality, they have their own goals and flaws and feel like real people
- The narration
The book’s weaknesses.
- I can't think of anything I would like different.
Overall: 5/5 stars

A Good Listen
This was a good story and was performed well by the two narrators, but I wish it had been a little longer. It did feel like the story could have done with a little more before the end.

A really enjoyable story
I got this by chance and didn't think much about it till I got involved with the story. I couldn't stop! The narrators did a fantastic job bringing the story to life. Well worth the purchase! 5*****
