New York Times and #1 Audible.com bestselling author, Jeremy Robinson, takes readers on a pulse-pounding journey to a dark and twisted future...and makes them laugh. MORE THAN A MILLION BOOKS SOLD! THE YEAR IS 1989 Callsign: Dark Horse and his Marine Rapid Reaction Force team have been sent to recover a strange artifact near Antarctica's Soviet-controlled Vostok Station. Confronted by a team of Ruskie Spetsnaz, a battle for control of the strange device, frozen in the ice, breaks out. But before anyone can claim victory, or the prize, an explosion of white light knocks the combatants unconscious and whisks them away to... 2989. One thousand years later. Dark Horse, along with his teammate, Chuy, and one of the Soviets, Drago, finds himself in a future that is both impressive and horrifying. Humanity has left Earth behind and is rapidly expanding throughout the galaxy under the banner of The Union, a white supremacist government who racially 'purified' the human race hundreds of years in the past. Living on the fringe of this twisted Fourth Reich society, Dark Horse--the only black man in the Union--commandeers a vessel and scours the galaxy for his missing teammates under the guise of an Exo-Hunter, seeking out exo-planets to satiate the Union's need for colonization. His search takes him beyond the edge of the known universe and into an interplanetary war, guided by a vast intelligence that's been waiting for Dark Horse's arrival--for a thousand years. EXO-HUNTER is a light-hearted homage to 1980s science fiction movies that also looks at the dangers of white supremacy and the core values that makes it dangerous, and the butt of the joke. In the audiobook edition, he is joined by #1 Audible bestselling narrator, R.C. Bray, giving readers the most compelling--and most fun--thing to come out of 2020.

This was such a fun book. If you're a fan of the 80s you will love all of the references. Jeremy Robinson has this brilliant way of blending action and humour that is showcased perfectly in this story. It's fun sci-fi that will keep you captivated until the very end.
RC Bray was fantastic as usual. The way he brings these characters to life and gives them each a unique and entertaining voice is astounding. That being said, and no disrespect to Bray because like I said, he was brilliant, but I would have liked to have seen some diverse casting with this audiobook since the premise of the book is that Dark Horse, the main character, is the last black man. A part from that, it was a wonderful listen with no production issues.
Space. Nazis. In The Future! I didn't think there was much new ground that The Modern Day Master of Science Fiction, Jeremy Robinson, had left to cover. I was wrong. He hadn't covered space Nazis in the future yet, and that has now been corrected in truly awesome fashion. This one has everything you would expect from a tale of late 80s Special Forces soldiers being thrust 1,000 years into a future where the Nazis eventually came back, destroyed Earth... and are trying to take over the entire galaxy. Some Firefly, a good dose of WALL-E, and a few key callbacks to other previous Robinson books (easily explained in context, but then you're going to want to go read those books too :) ). And a pair of significant cameos at the end that could signal that Robinson is FINALLY about to give us another Avengers Level Event soon! All told, one of Robinson's more fun books to date, which is saying quite a bit, and very much recommended.
