The Earthborn Box Set Books 1–3 by Adair Hart

Rating: WARTY!

"Intergalactic bounty hunter Blake Brown is ready for a vacation when he gets an offer he can’t refuse" Vito Corleone wants him to find a place for his nephew in the Galactovision Song Contest. This is yet another tedious retelling of the dedicated guy who comes out of retirement, or in this case abandons his vacation plans, to set the world to rights. Yawn. Must everyone travel this worn-out, old, retreaded road? Could the guy not have been looking for work? Or about to accept another job, but gives that up for this one? Must this be a cookie-cutter clone of scores of other stories that tell the same tired tale? Apparently this author has no imaginaiton and no sense of adventure, so why should I read this? Why doesn't he Adair to be different?
