Two awesome authors join together for a collaboration! CHECK IT OUT!
A great start to a new series without being too wordy with world building. These authors worked well together bringing us an exciting story.
Former Space Corp Marines injured in battle and considered brain dead were brought back to life as Cyborgs. Without the macheriny were they nothing more than zombies or a lot more? Dr Claudia is kidnapped by one of them, she knew him before and still had feelings for him. Were these glimpses of humanity a sign that he remembered her. OMG the Hoppers, almost as bad as imagining flying sharks. A fantastic tale of intrigue, action and romance. I loved it.
As always loving the Cyborg storylines! Would like a bit more back story and build up to the next book!!
I LOVED this book, great cyborg story!
This book was a pretty good read.
I liked how well the story plot was written.
I liked the MC and how there story was told.
Overall I would recommend this book to anyone.
I voluntarily read an advance reader copy of this book and my opinion are my own.
This is a great start to a new series.After a mission goes wrong Dr Claudia Chambers implants the Cyborg device in Drew and his team turning them into machines. Claudia was in love with Drew and wondered if the man was still inside the machine and could he love her too? This is a great read and I would definitely recommend it.
Great story. I finished it in one sitting. Loved Drew and Claudia and the twist on Cyborgs.
An exciting and well written page turner! What a fantastic story! I couldn’t put it down! From start to finish, it held my interest. There are drama and deep emotional themes that suck you in, then there is also action, suppressed love and a kidnapping, just to keep the story-fire going! This story has it all!
Great Cyborg story – a New Favorite!!
Between the technical details of the cyborgs and the CyBRG device – short for Cybernetic Brain Re-routing Gear; we get detailed insight into what makes up these creations. Dr. Claudia Chambers is touched when she must convert her now brain-dead friend into a cyborg. When the cyborg (Unit 77 / Drew) makes some decisions on his own, and listens to the “little voice in his head” instead of his instructions things get interesting.
Turns out the head of the program may not be a good guy, and the “rogue” cyborgs may just be the “good guys”. Doc gets caught up in this when she is kidnapped to “repair” one of the cyborgs. As the humanity slips through the mechanics we are treated to a delightful story full of danger, intrigue, Hoppers (must read it to find out) and romance.
Excellent read – looking forward to more in this series!!
*** I am voluntarily leaving my honest review of this book ***
This book has the “Anderson Stamp”! Everything I expected from an Anderson book is here. I can’t wait to read more of this series.
What a great story.
My heart broke for Claudia. Here she was forced to make this man into machines. To have a man that she cared deeply about and considered her friend had to be hard. Hear he was dead and now she was suppose to bring him back as a machine. a monster, a killing machine. I can not imagine how it felt to see him everyday and know that the man she once knew was gone and all that was left was a the shell of the man.
I really like Unit 77. At first reading this story I had worried that it would go over my head with a bunch of I knew nothing about or would understand. The story was written very well and made it very easy to understand.
I loved to see some human characteristic that we were starting to see in Unit 77 and his troops Sorry I am not going to get to much into that, you will just have to read the book to see.
This book does not only show some hot steamy romance but it show hope and how love can conquer all. Glad I got a chance to read.
Was different, i liked how both authors pulled it off though. In a world that is not like ours, soldiers who their (higher uppers) thought to be brain dead when the CyBRG chip was suppose to make sure they were just that soldiers no humane’s to them. Well that changed when Unit 77 decided to do something the co didn’t expect and not fallow orders. Also The leading lady Claudia aka doc , wasn’t very happy with not knowing how the CyBRG chip worked in the first place and that she had no choice but to implant it. Just take my advice you’ll possibly love this book and want to know whats next so just take the chance and READ IT :).
This was a great start to a new series. Great book cover awesome romance. I really enjoyed the story plot and the connection between the main character were explosive. Can’t wait to read the next book. I voluntarily review this book for my honest opinion.
Very interesting and enjoyable short story. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for this series. Overall a entertaining read and a great start for a new series. I voluntarily read and review this ARC no monetary compensation was received the opinions I have expressed are my own.
I enjoyed reading this book , it has a great storyline. I can’t wait for more from this author. I received this book as a FREE ARC copy to read and I voluntarily leave this review.
Coming awake
I don’t know why it has taken me so long to read this hidden gem, but I am so glad I did. These authors brought everything I love from their individual writing styles and paired them together so perfectly it is as if one author wrote the story. I love the characters! The Cybrgs are so fascinating the way they go back and forth between aware and machine. And the Doc is so endearing in the love and loss she has felt. The authors did not disappoint in the action and danger, I sure hope I never run into one of those hoppers. This book is an amazing read and I really hope the authors continue the series, I need to know what happens with the rest of the unit.
Anything and everything by Evangeline Anderson is awesome, but was disappointed this book was much shorter than what she usually writes.
Love the series!
3.5 stars–UNIT 77: BROKEN is the first instalment the Cyrbrg Files, a sci-fi, romance series co-authored by Mina Carter and Evangeline Anderson. This is Dr. Claudia Chambers, and Unit 77 aka Captain Drew Fischer’s story line.
Told from dual third person perspectives (Claudia and Drew) UNIT 77: BROKEN follows the Space Corps Marines elite unit commanded by Drew Fischer. No longer human but cybernetic hybrids of man and steel, a military experiment using once- dead soldiers created an army of powerful but controllable units. With no memories from the past, this elite group of cyborgs should have obeyed but a small number of soldiers have gone rogue including their leader Unit 77 aka Captain Drew Fischer. On the run, an injured cyborg needs immediate medical attention, and Unit 77 knows the exact person from whom this attention will be met. Enter Dr. Claudia Chambers, the doctor who transformed the dead men into automated soldiers, and the woman with whom Drew will fall in love. What ensues is the rekindling romance between Claudia and Drew, and the potential fall-out as Drew struggles with issues of trust for the woman he loves.
Once upon a time Drew and Claudia were lovers but a military disaster destroyed all semblance of humanity and love. Slowly, over the course of time, Unit 77’s memories of a time before bring with it the knowledge of something more than the automated drones the men had become. The $ex scenes are erotic and intense but felt forced and unnatural. Flashbacks and memories recall an earlier relationship between Claudia and Drew.
We are introduced to a small number of Unit 77’s fellow cyborgs, men who are slowly regaining their humanity, along with the memories of what happened and why. The personalities are varied; our story line hero struggles to let go.
Carter and Anderson have borrowed concepts from Star Trek and Starship Troopers in order to create a blend of sci-fi and romance. The premise is imaginative but familiar; the romance is fated; the characters are colorful, intriguing but damaged.
