A price paid in blood  Â
"The Order of the Centurion is the highest award that can be bestowed upon an individual serving in, or with, the Legion. When such an individual displays exceptional valor in action against an enemy force, and uncommon loyalty and devotion to the Legion and its legionnaires, refusing to abandon post, mission, or brothers, even unto death, the Legion dutifully recognizes such courage with this award."Â
Tired of sitting out the war on Psydon in a mobile office lab, Legion Lieutenant Washam agrees to undertake a covert and unsanctioned mission with a band of Republic Recon Marines. Inserted deep behind enemy lines, the strike force uncovers a surprise key to ending a bitter war. Now they must navigate a hostile jungle teeming with murderous alien rebels, pushing themselves to the limits of their abilities, to get this vital intel to Legion Command - if they can survive that long.Â
The Order of the Centurion is an all-new series of stand-alone military science fiction thrillers set in the Galaxy's Edge universe, ranging from the Savage Wars to the arrival of the Black Fleet. Each book features the legendary heroes of the Legion who forgot nothing in their earning of the Legion's highest honor.

"An amazing story definitely worth reading. Part of the Galaxy’s Edge universe that can be read as a stand-alone without having read any of the other books.
Order of the Centurion is the first book and a series of upcoming stand-alones in the Galaxy’s Edge universe (according to the authors) focusing on the stories leading up to the award of the Order of the Centurion medal – a Legion medal awarded to those demonstrating the highest level of bravery and sacrifice and most often awarded posthumously.
This first entry tells the story of a House of Reason political appointee to the Legion named Washam. Washam is different from other "points" in that he actually wants to be a real legionnaire – not just someone using military service as a political stepping stone. Washam appears in the main series that happens much later in the Galaxy’s Edge timeline. This is an origin story. And it’s great. While not necessary to understanding the main series, the background provided just gives that much more life to the whole. You will find just as much depth to the characters here as you do in the other books. And just like the other books, Order of the Centurion is loaded with action.
If you’ve enjoyed the Galaxy’s Edge series, this one is not to be missed. If you haven’t read any of the books yet, this one is not a bad choice as a first entry to the series."

- I have read every book in the Galaxy's Edge series. I have enjoyed all them. This action packed story mainly follows two points in the Legion and their team as they struggle to survive in the jungle fighting doros all the way. In addition to all of the action, this a character driven story that brought tears to my eyes. I can hardly wait for 'Iron Wolves'!

If you’ve enjoyed the Galaxy’s Edge series, this one is not to be missed. If you haven’t read any of the books yet, this one is not a bad choice as a first entry to the series. - Let alone two of them!!!! I should dock you guys a star for doing this. I never expected to come out of this book thinking this might be the best one of the GE books so far. I really liked the different perspective of this book. We have been shown short bits of how this universe impacts the "little people" (non-Legion), but this book puts us right in amongst a mostly non-Legion cast of characters. It is a great stand-alone book, or as another great fleshing out of this magnificent Universe. These guys are not doing anything to let their fans down, as they keep pushing the quality of the stories even more.
- I was a fan of the Galaxy's Edge books from the first one released, but Anspach and Cole blow the lid off of my legion love with "Order of the Centurion". Military sci-fi that nails combat, human emotion, the desire to earn respect, fight for the brothers/sisters beside you - it was impossible to put down this book. I felt this story dove deeper into the bonds of friendship than previous books in this Galactic World and it reached me in a way that was real and relatable. This is an amazing ride of an adventure story as well and I respect the authors for presenting a tale that didn't need a bunch of trash language or ridiculous political correctness to be amazing. Can not wait for more and applaud this new storyline. (No spoiler, but you're going to find it hard not to respect Wash and how he goes above and beyond as the newest great character)
- This was a heck of a story, kinda reminded me of the classic WW2 and Vietnam movies with actors like John Wayne and Peter Fonda. It is a good setup for a side character mentioned in the main series, and some fleshing out of characters in more branches of the military (marines and basics especially). The end has quite a few moments that hit you right in the feels, just like those classic old war movies. I would highly recommend it to anyone who likes those.
- The entire series is well written. This latest installment is no different. It was great to see Lieutenant Washam's back story on Psydon. I really like how the authors tie together characters across different books and major events with the Galaxy's Edge universe. For young readers the story is clean (no profanity) and the the hero's in the story are worth rooting for. This book explains how one of the first "Points" became a real Legionnaire and provides insights to his role during the fall of the House of Reason. Can't wait for more back story books and others that are within the Galaxy's Edge universe. .
- I’ve had seven Galaxy’s Edge books for quite awhile now, but was reluctant to start listening to the one I had on audiobook or have someone read any to me (my vision problems prevent me from reading and writing for myself) because, for reasons I can’t figure out, the very thought intimidated me.
Maybe I was afraid I’d be let down. The book covers are some of the best I’ve ever seen. I can still see colors and contrast fairly well and these are all extremely well done.
Maybe I just didn’t want to ruin my expectations.
Well, I got over my reluctance and decided to try the only audiobook I have which was my latest acquisition, “Order of the Centurionâ€.
I can only start by saying I wish I would have started sooner as this story was outstanding.
It had everything I love about action science fiction.
It had a great story line with fleshed out characters, enough drama to be considered a drama story, cool yet creepy environments, an enemy you’d never want to meet even in your nightmares and terrific action scenarios.
But I think what I liked about it most is the multiple protagonists of which several were equally heroic.
Even most of the sub characters played significant roles.
This was simply a well written story and one I won’t easily forget, but best of all, there are a ton more Galaxy’s Edge books left for me to experience.
The only sad part for me is that I don’t have anymore on audio and will have to wait for my next month’s Audible credit to purchase another one.
I might be able to find a reader in the meantime, but that’s been difficult since working people have little time to themselves.
Oh well, that’s life.
But please give yourself a nice treat and read the “Galaxy’s Edge†series. It’ll make you very happy.
