Battle for the Stars by Edmond Hamilton ~ Full Audiobook [scifi]

Battle for the Stars by Edmond Hamilton audiobook. Genre: scifi In a far-future galaxy where humanity's original homeworld has become a distant symbol instead of a true seat of power, five rival Sectors rule the star lanes like competing empires. Commander Kirk of the Lyra Sector is sent on a high-risk solo probe into the Dragon's Throat, a lethal star cluster rumored to hide an Orion Sector secret base that could tip the balance toward open war. Aboard the cruiser Starsong, Kirk and his hard-bitten crew gamble everything on speed, stealth, and imperfect sensors as they thread through burning suns and violent gravitic tides. But the mission turns political as quickly as it turns dangerous: agents, traps, and double meanings wait on the ground, and the question behind every move is not just who controls a backwater world, but who will make the next claim on Earth itself. With a wife waiting far away and loyalties tested by ambition on all sides, Kirk must decide how much of himself he can afford to sacrifice to keep a fragile peace from collapsing into a galaxy-wide conflagration.
