Summary

Get all four books in the Contingency War Series for one low price. Hours of epic space opera action and adventure with unique heroes and twists that you won’t see coming!

The series includes: The Contingency, The Way Station Gambit, Rise of Nimrod Fleet, and Earth’s Last War.

From book one:

No-one comes in peace. Every being in the galaxy wants something and is willing to take it by force. The Hedalt were no different. They came from the distant reaches of the galaxy to wage war. Their fleet wanted to take Earth for its prize, but we were ready. We were stronger. 

For years, we fought them, ship-to-ship, until we scattered their forces and drove them back. Pursuing the Hedalt fleet to their home world, we delivered the decisive blow. We nuked their planet and wiped them out for good.

Or so we thought. 

For decades, Earth Fleet sent out Deep Space Recon missions to scour the galaxy and clean up the remnants of the Hedalt Empire. Eventually, we found only ghosts - empty outposts and long-dead colonies. But, close to the edge of known space, I - Captain Taylor Ray - and my crew are about to make a discovery that will change everything.

The war isn’t over. The war has yet to begin.

The book took unexpected turn

This was a wonderfully built universe and I love the Hedalt warrior's fighting spirit though I remain team human. The Narrator was a bit annoying i just never would have imagined captain Tailor speaking like he did in this series. I loved the whole of Tailor's team and the last book managed to tie everything up quite well in my opinion. I will be looking out for books from this author. This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

brilliant space opera

This is one book, split into four volumes. A great story, well plotted with plenty of unexpected twists and turns, particularly half way through the first volume. The narration was good and kept up a good pace, although some of the characters sounded the same, particularly the females, but that didn't detract from the story. Thoroughly recommended.

nice sci-fi series with fun twists.

Interesting "adventure" style sci-fi story, that has some fun twists at the early stages to make the book more interesting.
Sci-fi wise it has decent fiction, if somewhat lean on the science, but good combat descriptions and reasonable backgrounds

Well narrated and good tempo with decent distinction between different characters, well worth listening too.
