On the surface, the galaxy seems peaceful. Humankind prospers from the Capital World to the far reaches of The Corridor. But to those who can see the signs, it's clear something is wrong. Long, dark fingers are pulling strings inside the military, making clandestine deals with enemy states, and fulfilling some dark design. Calvin is an intelligence agent working for the Imperial government. He's young, his methods are unorthodox, but he gets results. So when a former military hero steals a warship and goes rogue--threatening to start a war, Calvin is sent to eliminate him. But as he chases his prey across the stars, he realizes they are both pawns in a shadowy chess game that shakes kingdoms, divides empires, and threatens civilization everywhere. And if he is to uncover the mystery and expose the conspiracy he must confront--and embrace--the darkest elements of the galaxy and throw himself, his career, and everyone he loves into the line of fire.
I was taken a back by this book. The narrator is spectacular and the story even more intriguing. I had to immediately reactivate my subscription to listen to to next one!

It started well, but degenerated into a kindergarten fight which could have been set in any scene. The science part was less believable, narration was good

Great storyline and well read, went looking for the second book not free yet.

The narrator bored me to tears. It was enough that every other chapter the volume would fluctuate. The cadence and energy used to deliver self reflecting moments, to subtle physical details of the ship, to bullets whizzing by and the panic of a ship about to self destruct.. All the same. Meh.

A fully enjoyable Audio. The narrator is super. The story well told with many twists and turns. The characters were well developed, especially the main character with all his charms and faults. I especially admired his insistence to find the truth, whatever. Will I continue on with the next book? Maybe… hmmm, I would like to find out how the story goes on, but I was mostly interested in the main character, so it depends on whether he continues to be the main character or not.
The narrator is absolutley fantastic! He makes this engaging space adventure a real joy to listen to.
excellent
Enjoyed this book and narrative was awesome
I enjoyed the book emencely. I will read more as my coin builds up. Ty for the read
After an hour, I couldn't keep listening. I thought the character development needed work. Their dialog was uninteresting--approaching stereotypical. The science was weak and the narration was mechanical.
I think it was a decent book
This was my first experience trying audiobooks and I couldn't be more surprised! The narrator gives the story, which is very intriguing and detailed, some sort of magic that you can see everything that is happening right in front of your eyes. So so so so so goooooooooood!!!!!
In spite of fine narration, I cannot recommend “The Phoenix Conspiracy.” I found the story ridiculous, and sometimes disgusting, with many credibility issues. Improbable images include “blood-soaked ground” aboard a starship and a drugged drink delivered via French kiss. Yech! The characters are NOT inspiring. Language and terminology are flawed. In addition, the author fails to grasp basic physics or to appreciate movement through three dimensions. I feel no urge to listen to the second volume of this series.
It started out interesting but then you realize non of the characters are really likeable. I really was done after the crew member who is already established as being an experienced warrior who bus happy to break rules acts dumb and ridiculous while hacking a computer. Then the captain falls for obvious trick. I’m not sure how this is a series. Awful writing.
little confusing at first but it's got to be pretty good
Great story and narrator. Can’t wait to start book 2.
Very good nice and long can’t wait for the next one
For me, it seems as narrator made this read come to life. The author created very well told outlook at possible futuristic battles to preserve human life.
This is awesome I loved it
Action and mystery, with engaging, flawed characters. Sci-fi at it's best.
superb book. can't wait to read the next episode.
The narrator was good, but The book was boring, predictable, The characters 1 dimentional, behaving very uncharacteristic and generally in a unbelievable fashion. The view of how a woman thinks and feels is archaic and this seems to be written by someone that has not conversed with women at a deeper level.
Very good narrator and story. Wish to continue listen to the rest of the book.
An awesome story and story teller
This book was absolutely gripping. However, the reading by the narrator made this story come to life. I found myself finding it difficult to pause, and bookmark.
Great narration, great story, cant wait to get into the rest of the series. A
I liked the plot very much. I found, at times, the dialogue to be a bit like dialogue found in a young adult book. It could have been written with a more mature perspective.
Interesting. A good listen if you like this style. Moving onto the 2nd.
Just an awesome story. It's a real brain teaser something to get you thinking.
Fantastic narration and great story.
I cant believe this book was free, definitely hooked on the series now
I am intrigued by this story. I will check out the next book... because I am not sure if this is a slow build to the series or just a slow burning writer.
Good read loved it
