About this audiobook
"I was on a dead ship on an unknown planet with three trainees freshly graduated into the Imperial Service. I tried to look on the bright side."
He is the last to wake. The label on his sleeper pad identifies him as an admiral of the Evagardian Empire-a surprise as much to him as to the three recent recruits now under his command. He wears no uniform, and he is ignorant of military protocol, but the ship's records confirm he is their superior officer.
Whether he is an Evagardian admiral or a spy will be of little consequence if the crew members all end up dead. They are marooned on a strange world, their ship's systems are failing one by one--and they are not alone.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I received a free e-version of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
I really enjoyed this book. The characters were interesting and developed over the course of the book. The action was fast, furious, and constant. It was both an action/adventure and a bit of a mystery as well, keeping the reader engaged at all levels. I highly recommend it. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Admiral by Sean Danker is a sci-fi novel and I won this from Goodreads Giveaways, yeah!!! I am so glad I did, it is so awesome. The plot is so great with so many twists, turns, action, mysteries, and fun. The characters are intriguing and creative. The "Admiral", we don't know his real name, is awakened from stasis by three military trainees when his life support stasis starts failing. It seems the four of them are all that is on the space ship. Once they check the ship, they find it damaged and sabotaged, same as the Admiral's sleeping habitat. Then they find they are not in space but on a godforsaken planet that is trying to kill them. The action is nonstop and suspenseful but at the same time the author makes it humorous at the most odd times which adds so much to the story. The story is brilliant and witty. The reader is left in the dark as to who the Admiral really is until the very end of the book. I sure hope there is a book two! There wasn't a page that didn't have extreme tension, explosions, life threatening situations, complications, creatures, and more mysteries. A great read! Excellent book.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Good story. Thrilling adventure in the unknown. Worth a listen.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Enjoyed the audio book. Looking for more by author.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5enjoyable, mystery survival novel. good audiobook that kept me engaged.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5When the system tells you someone is in charge it can be hard to fight it when so much of the evidence conflicts with what is said. And that is the underlying theme to the story. Four people awaken out of a cryo sleep on a ship with no power instead of arriving on the flagship of the Evagardian Empire. Three of them are recent graduates but one is listed as an admiral and he has to be the youngest looking one the other three have ever heard of. As they try to find out why they have crashed on a transport ship and not at their destination they try to puzzle out the admiral’s background and of course he isn’t helping. As they go into each other’s background you get a good sense of world building in the novel. The four quickly realized they must leave the ship before it kills them and cross part of the planet to a colony that should get them back to where they need to be.
It is a race against the clock to cross before they run out of air and things are not as they seem when they get to where they need to be. Lots of tension among the characters and there is the mystery surrounding the admiral a well. A fun fast read and I want to see more in this universe.
Digital review copy provided by the publisher through NetGalley - Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Four people wake up in a dead spaceship on an unknown planet. They quickly realize that the planet is unstable, and every step is a fight for survival. I’m not sure what to say about this book. It was an interesting story; however, I didn’t think the author told us enough about the world for the big reveal at the end to mean anything. Overall, not bad, but not something I would re-read.
