Publisher's summary
Play the game.
Murder the innocent.
Don't let them see you sweat.
Commander Boone's treacherous secret could save thousands of lives—if he could only escape from the murderous warlord who employs him. He wears his game face while following orders to destroy enemy fleets and handles a reckless assassin with elemental powers. Behind the scenes, he is undermining the warlord's pursuit of an innocent rival.
The duplicity and the horrors are taking their toll. Boone wants out.
In a bold gambit, he crafts a plan to escape. But his superiors might be catching on, and the plan is not without its own horrors. With everything working against him, including the woman he thought was his salvation, he may not live long enough to execute it.
Space Battles, Biological “Magic,” Ground Assaults, Betrayal, Unlikely Allies
The Handler's Gambit is a dark, character-driven thrill ride across the galaxy, where the sacrifices made for freedom clash with the indomitable human spirit.

When the International Space Station suffers a catastrophic failure and plummets through the atmosphere, it's here that Mission Specialist Julie Rohr, an astrobiologist studying living space dust called xylem, finds herself marooned. Julie's only hope for rescue lies in the hands of her estranged father, Dr. Finn Maddern, a renowned mycologist.

A Fantastic Intergalactic Adventure
Ingrid Moon's "The Handler's Gambit," narrated by Scott Allen, is an action packed adventure. Boone has a brilliant mind that is always evaluating and calculating the situation. i dont have alot of time during the day to listen but i found myself listening late into the evening.
Scott Allen was flawless, he brought each and every character to life (Vindik was my favorite). he was a perfect selection for this book.
I really enjoyed listening to The Handler's Gambit and i would highly recommend it.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Awesome Action Thriller
This was my first experience with Ingrid Moon's work, and it won't be my last. Commander Boone wanted to escape from the murderous warlord who employed him. Commander Boone had a plan; for the plan to work, several events needed to fall into place, and the odds were stacked against him. I enjoyed the story. I liked the setting. I was entertained by the characters. There were some surprises and some edge-of-your seat moments. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series. Scott Allen's narration was great, and his performance enhanced the story's entertainment. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review.

War games.
The author Ingrid Moon imagination is really amazing on this first book of the series.
Using a great game muster to fight a war is a genius move, the only question is “ will it work “ ?
Coincidence,
This whole week I watched the
complete series of the
hunger-games including the new one and In a weird way this book is a reminder, only this game is played in space, moves and counter moves, a war like 3D chess with amazing brains strategies which is the real twisters in this whole book.
Beautiful narration by Scott Allen for each of the characters in this creation.
My recommendations !!!

One man's desperate gamble
Received as a review copy from Story Origin; also received from Story Origin as an audio review narrated beautifully by Scott Allen, this is an honest review.
This is a wonderful, vibrant adventure that grabs your attention right from the start as we get to know a Commander Boone is desperate to leave behind the strict existence that is life in service of the Coalition. Unfortunately, Boone gets roped back into the dangerous world of secrets that can save innocent lives while also hauntingly ending life at the same time. There is not easy road for Boone to take... he'll just have to live with his actions of become consumed by the ghosts that haunt him.
Highly recommended.
