The Pirates of Ersatz by Murray Leinster ~ Full Audiobook [scifi]

The Pirates of Ersatz by Murray Leinster audiobook.

Genre: scifi

Bron Hoddan was born on Zan, a backwater world notorious for the one profession its people secretly practice: space piracy. Bron wants out. Armed with a self-taught genius for electronics and a fierce determination to become respectable, he runs to Walden, the most polished planet in the region, dreaming of a steady career, real wealth, and a future with the sweet, sensible Nedda. But Walden's comfort hides a deadly fear of change, and when Bron proves his brilliance with an invention that could upend the planet's tidy economy, the reaction is panic, cover-ups, and an accusation far worse than theft: that he has created a weapon no one can be allowed to possess.

Forced into flight, Bron falls among hard edged feudal warriors, prickly nobles like the Lady Fani, and chieftains who understand power in ways Walden has forgotten. To survive, he does the one thing he swore he would never do again: he becomes a pirate - not for bloodlust, but as a calculated tool. As rumors spread of pirate fleets and impossible technology, Bron must balance engineering, bluff, and moral compromise while deciding what kind of man he will be when the whole galaxy insists on labeling him a menace.
