The Genevians are at war with Nietzschea...and they’re losing.

In a last-ditch hope, the Genevian mech program was founded. Its goal to augment humans into cyborg fighting machines; mechanized warriors sent to hold the front lines against an enemy that was storming a hundred worlds.

Yet few wished to undergo the brutal process, and so criminals were used, their minds enslaved by control chips and obedience enforced through discipline.

The Genevians spent their mechs against the Nietzscheans with little care, eventually struggling to find enough bodies to convert into fighting machines. Quotas were set in the courts, prosecutors, and judges paid off to ensure that even the most benign offenses would see the perpetrator end up in a mech factory, rights and mind stripped as much as body.

Rika is one such victim.

Forged into a second generation scout mech, she is sent to the front lines where she serves with distinction, crushing countless enemies beneath her clawed feet.

But, despite giving everything she had, Genevia still loses the war, and Rika is abandoned.

Now she slings cargo on Dekar, little more than a human loading machine, struggling to keep ahead of the slow breakdown of her mechanized body.

Until someone makes her an offer she cannot refuse. An offer that will see her rejoin the fight - whether she wants to or not. Rika will have to summon a strength she never knew she had to bring about the victory that she once thought was lost.

Get Rika’s Marauders today and follow the ultimate rags-to-riches story, where one woman rises up and saves not only herself, but her people.

This omnibus volume contains all seven books in the Rika’s Marauders series, as well as two novellas: Rika Mechanized and Rika Crucible.

I often have a hard time finishing long stories or boxed sets anymore, but not with this one. It kept me Turing pages right to the end and checking to see if there was more of Rika’s story to be had.

Absolutely engrossing series

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 21, 2020

Verified Purchase

This is world building on an epic scale viewed through one persons experiences. From being taken involuntarily and forced into the military in a gruesome fashion growing into a person of position!

Some entries in SFF force the female lead to be bonded to men in some normative fashion thus enabling an increase in her power (political or otherwise). Yet here we have Rika being the best person she can be - strong, empathetic and willing to take chances, gaining power yet still hewing to her ethical standards.

Yes, there are more battles and societal change that Rika has to navigate (that's a big universe out there) but that's what makes this collection so engrossing.

One spoiler - when the author suggests you take a break and read a few different books set in the same universe - just do it!

For the sake of honesty - I acquired this box set through a giveaway - now I just have to figure out how i can buy the rest set in this universe!

What a Series

I had read the Orion War series, but never got around to Rika due to available time. I went back and read this, loving having all books in one set. This was so much better than I expected, and it was nice to see some gaps filled in that the main series didn't cover. I highly recommend Rika's Marauders

Kindle quotes this as approximately 42 hours and some change worth of reading. It's so massive that you can't just marathon it through in one sitting. It has seven full novels and two shorter stories in it, and when I picked it up the whole thing was on Christmas sale for $0.99! Shut Up And Take My Money, Right?
I'm a big fan of Mal's writing, Ione a couple dozen of her novels if I owned one. The characters are enjoyable, the setting is portrayed realistically, it has its own rules and laws and it sticks to them to give you a sense of gravity (heh, gravity in space).
Even if it's not still on sale when you're reading this review, and considering for yourself, I recommend going for it. And if you're a fan of the Aeon 14 Universe, consider grabbing the Intrepid Saga as well.

Somewhat engrossing read, great characters, sloppy editing though.

Really fun space-battle rich SciFi. Civil war, AI's, BDO's and more. A really fun read. Lots of typos though....

But after all was said and done I felt zero need to read anything else in the series, even though there are what - 100 books in the various branches? "Oh look - Rika is in danger. Oh look, it's her against 10,000 baddies (seriously....). Oh look, she survived. Oh look, she gained a new skill. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Ever read the old Conan series? How every single book was just a variation on the first few? Same here. Totally predictable with characters you really don't care about.

Plus nobody dies. Some civilian? Sure. A billion baddies? Yep. Rika or any of her mechs? Nope. Never. It gets tiring. Fast.

This series follows Rika, a young woman who is arrested for stealing a loaf of bread and trumped the charge up to stealing weapons. Her 2 choices are life in prison or join the army to fight in the war. She opts to join the army. Little did she know that she would be turned into a mech with a compliance chip in her brain. It is a great series that follows what happens to her during and after the loss of the war. I enjoyed this very much and recommend this.

The Best Journey you could take

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on December 6, 2019

Its finally all together and the remarkable character that is Rika progresses from street waif to ........
What always gets me with this character and the stories she finds herself in is no matter how much machine you may become the humanity and caring that comes through is unique whilst still being one of the most kickass , take charge hero to exisit in the large Aeon 14 universe.
Honestly having such a great collection all togther may be the undoing of sleep as once you turn that fiest few pages you may never read scifi stories again.
Rika and the other characters have forever changed my outlook of the future and how we retain what makes us human even as circumstances change around us while being the type of person everyone ones to become.
Anyways this feels a little too gushy compared to my normal critique ,and if your reading this ,then the
bargain of the Aeon is contained within and im perhaps holding you back from it.

Brilliant concept and unbelievably gripping I was captivated from the first sentence to the last word. Incredible characters woven into an enthralling and entertaining storyline which flows at an incredible pace until the end. Definitely one of the best series of SF I have read and enjoyed. Looking forward to the next instalments. Congratulations to the author who deserves all the plaudits for weaving this incredible story.

I started reading these books thankful that it was the complete series not realising that I would get hooked so much on Rika but I defy anyone who reads this series to say that they weren't drawn to the struggles and the triumphs of Rika in the short amount of Rika's life told in these books
Please enjoy reading these books

Rika has become one of my favorite characters, strong and powerful yet humble and forgiving at the same time.A natural born leader with a reluctance to lead. A character full of contradictions yet with the strength to overcome and persevere. Loved by her friends and hated feared by her enemies. Someone to aspire to be like. Very well written with an excellent story line.
