Crusade
(OverDrive Listen)
Description
Lieutenant Commander Matthew Reddy, along with the men and women of the U.S.S. Walker, have chosen sides in a war not of their making. They have allied with the Lemurians—a mammalian race whose peaceful existence is under attack from the warlike, reptilian Grik.
The Lemurians are vastly outnumbered and ignorant of warfare, and even the guns and technology of Walker cannot turn the tide of battle. Luckily, they are not alone. Reddy finally finds Mahan, the other destroyer that passed through the rift. Together, the two American ships will teach the Lemurians to fight and stand against the bloodthirsty Grik—or so they think.
For there is another vessel that does not belong on these strange seas—the massive Japanese battle cruiser Amagi, the very ship that Walker was fleeing from when the rift took them. Like Mahan, it followed them through. And now Amagi is in the hands of the Grik.

- content: In the first installment of this series, Captain Matthew Reddy and his U.S. Navy WWII destroyer crew made friends with the monkey cats. Now they continue to help their companions fight a deadly army of lizards that is determined to eat them all. William Dufris narrates this sci-fi saga with an impressive swagger. He growls like the Grik lizards and purrs with the female cat people, bringing a thrill of terror or pleasure to each. He gives each human character an accent appropriate to his or her purported home--whether it's Alabama, Texas, the Bronx, or Japan. Anderson and Dufris work together to crank up the fun factor with great success. R.L.L. (c) AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine

Anderson raises the stakes for Lt. Cmdr. Matthew Reddy and the crew of the USS Walker
in this dramatic sequel to 2008’s Into the Storm
. The sailors and marines become further enmeshed in the politics of the parallel Earth into which their WW2 destroyer has mysteriously been transported. As they deal out rough justice to miscreants in the ranks and prepare their pacifist Lemurian allies to fight the Grand Swarm of the reptilian Grik, they in turn must face their own worst nightmare: the appearance of a Japanese battle cruiser. Anderson throws in tense land battles against overwhelming odds, a massive typhoon and a phenomenal aerial duel, but despite the pyrotechnics, at heart this novel is about how honor and ideals can bend or break under the stressful, life-and-death conditions of total war.
