Booklog 93/2025: J N Chaney & Scott Moon: The Last Reaper – Last Reaper #1

[jacey]

Audiobook read by Ray Porter

Halek Cain is the last survivor of the reaper programme. He’s an unstoppable cyborg killing machine, currently on death row. Offered a reprieve if he rescues a renowned scientist from a lawless penal colony (on an asteroid) he accepts the job, discovering that he hasn’t been given all the information he needs. Of course the job isn’t straightforward and he ends up fighting both the inmates and his own side. This is apparently set in the Renegade Star Universe, but not having any previous knowledge of this doesn’t hamper the enjoyment of this story. Ray Porter reads it reliably well.
