About this audiobook
Fallen Dragon is a classic standalone novel by science fiction star, Peter F. Hamilton.
Lawrence Newton always dreamed of adventure amongst the stars. Now the ultimate prize is within his grasp, but what will he risk to get it?
Lawrence is the sergeant of a washed-out platoon, taking part in the bungled invasion of yet another human colony world. The giant corporations call such campaigns 'asset realization', but in practice it's simple piracy.
When he's on the ground, being shot at and firebombed by resistance forces, he recalls stories of the Temple of the Fallen Dragon. Its priests supposedly guard a treasure hoard large enough to buy lifelong happiness. So Lawrence decides to mount a dangerous private-enterprise operation of his own.

Good book good story reminds me a bit of starship troopers the book not that God awfull thing they say is a film. Plenty to get into both in the reading book and in the audio version, no complaints about it at all it's refreshing there's not too much real science fiction about it all Sean's to be bundled into fantasy now. Graphic sex it's one of them I'm at the age where it doesn't need to be there but no complaints about it.all in all a good read and a good listen
