Trouble on Paradise


Trouble on Paradise Audiobook

Trouble on Paradise is Book 3.5 in Craig Alanson's "Expeditionary Forces" series.  It takes place on the Ruhar-held world of Paradise, where tens of thousands of humans have been abandoned by their former allies, the Kristang.  Colonel Joe and the super-powerful, super-intelligent A.I, Skippy don't make an appearance, and the novel features minor characters from the first three books, along with a new character, the Burgermeister's nephew, Nerk.

I've been addicted to this series, reading all three 18-hour audiobooks in the space of a month.  When this less-than-six-hour book came out, I was excited despite its lack of length.  When I started reading it and found out that Colonel Joe and Skippy don't appear, I was initially nonplussed, but I grew to love this novella because of one character, Nerk.  Alanson has a great way with humor, and RC Bray narrates the series admirably.  I can't wait for Book 4 to come out.
