The Ixan Prophecies Series by Scott Bartlett

Captain Keyes is loved by the public but hated by Command. He captains the UHS Providence, an aging supercarrier and the last human ship not dependent on dark tech - technology humanity has used to rule over the galaxy since barely defeating the Ixa in the First Galactic War. Dominance has come at a cost. Over the decades, old allies have grown resentful, and when dark tech itself fails, Captain Keyes's predictions start coming true: those old allies are now enemies... moreCaptain Keyes is loved by the public but hated by Command. He captains the UHS Providence, an aging supercarrier and the last human ship not dependent on dark tech - technology humanity has used to rule over the galaxy since barely defeating the Ixa in the First Galactic War. Dominance has come at a cost. Over the decades, old allies have grown resentful, and when dark tech itself fails, Captain Keyes's predictions start coming true: those old allies are now enemies. But Keyes is not the only one proven right. As the galaxy plunges into war, the Ixan Prophecies are being fulfilled, one by one. Humanity's oldest enemy is on the rise, with weaponry never seen before. The fate of the galaxy now depends on Captain Keyes, his tired ship, and his oddball crew. It doesn't pay to be right. less

Captain Keyes has succeeded in forging an uneasy alliance - at the cost of making some powerful enemies. Now, he’s wanted throughout the galaxy. Even worse: they’re after his ship. His enemies inside the UHF have realized that only the Providence stands even a slight chance of stopping them. The Ixan Prophecies continue to come true, and humanity’s doom is taking shape... moreCaptain Keyes has succeeded in forging an uneasy alliance - at the cost of making some powerful enemies. Now, he’s wanted throughout the galaxy. Even worse: they’re after his ship. His enemies inside the UHF have realized that only the Providence stands even a slight chance of stopping them. The Ixan Prophecies continue to come true, and humanity’s doom is taking shape. The UHF ignores the mounting public panic, obsessed instead with waging prolonged war against a species that was recently an ally. While the UHF attacks its allies, the real enemy is approaching. For Captain Keyes, there remains only one way to make sure there’s something left of humanity to fight the coming Ixan onslaught: he must take down the UHF. The juggernaut is coming. less

The UHS Providence is restored to her former glory, with a fully reconstituted Air Group ready for war. But the Ixan fleet has grown far larger than anyone anticipated, and the onslaught has begun. As system after system is consumed, the Ixan Prophecies' terrifying nature is revealed. Even so, Captain Keyes's obsession with vengeance is starting to fracture already-shaky alliances. If he cannot overcome his demons and reclaim his honor, the entire galaxy will burn.Narrated by Mark Boyett.
