About this listen

Coast Guard Captain Jesse Watkins is killed in action.

Instead of moving on to the afterlife, Watkins wakes up as something different. He has been reborn as the core of a war-ravaged starship and must work to repair his vessel if he wants to find his way home.

Threats to his new existence abound, both in the darkness of space, and lurking aboard the ruined hulk of the ship he now commands. Despite the danger, Captain Watkins has a lifetime of naval service experience to call upon. With the help of his system adjunct, they must rebuild and prepare their vessel for the battles to come.

Captain Watkins must become something more than he was before. He must become a vessel powerful enough to survive the journey home.

upgrades and new blueprints felt boring.

Voice performance was average.. have nothing good or bad to mention here.. i have heard worse.

sounded interesting.. but..
