Just plane great

Like the entire series it was unpredictable, high tech, hi science, great characters. It was a complete joy.

Absolutley amazing military sci-fi, Fantastic!

Any additional comments?

Such a well done book series. If you like military sci-fi this is it! Very well done, I am glad they released all 4 parts fairly close together would have hated to wait much longer.
Narration is top notch, adding Luke Daniels onto my list of favorite narrators.

Repetative but good overall

I found this book to be a bit repetitive in the story line however overall it was still a good story and you need declosure.

Gripping and twisting

well worth the money.
exciting and complex story line.
voice actor that knows how to get you in there.

enjoyable characters

mind bending plot lines. Temporal storytelling at its best. The. AI's are the most fun.

Great Finish, but I wanted it to keep on going.

Would you listen to The Synchronicity War, Part 4 again? Why?

I will listen to the series again down the road. It was entertaining, contained some neat twists, and was just plain entertaining.

Who was your favorite character and why?

The main character because I could relate to him as a retired warrior myself.

Have you listened to any of Luke Daniels’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes

Any additional comments?

I hope Dietmar either finds a way to add to this series, or writes something else equally engrossing.

Superb, creative series that is way out of the box

Way beyond normal sci-fi! Well worth the credits. Shows the value of long-term planning vs. the cost of short term political "realities" that lead to disaster.

Great ending

This book wrapped up the series very well and exposes you to some great new aspects of the characters. If you have made it this far in the series, you owe it to yourself to complete it.

A chapter in this book that RIVALS anything !!!!!

I usually don't write reviews in detail, but I had to in this case. I've been a solid Sci-Fi Space opera listener for 4+ years with over 200 books in my audible account. In this book, part 4, there is a chapter that encompassed the up / down / and most satisfying listen I've experienced in any book ever. Chapter 10. I'm not going to spoil anything in this chapter, but I equated Chapter 10 in this book to the last 20 minutes of the Shawshank Redemption movie (What Andy Dufrain did to escape prison and the plan he hatched that was disclosed, to Victor Shiloh and what he pulled off with the OC). I've listened to Chapter 10 at least three times - and Chapter 10 is only 10 out of 28, but this one proved the writing style the performance of Luke Daniels, and the entire storyline in one amazing and most satisfying part. AMAZING!!!! writing and performance.

I find myself sad that this will be the last

If you haven’t listened to the reset of the The Synchronicity War series, this review may contain spoilers of those books.

Here we are with Book 4 of The Synchronicity War the final installment. I find myself sad that this will be the last. I really hope that Dietmar Wehr writes more military space operas. If you haven’t listened to the previous three books, do your self a favor and do so.

Now actual time travel is possible. We can not only send messages back in time, we can send an AI that doesn’t exist in the past back to warn ourselves of the ultimate destruction coming our way. The question is, how far back in time would you go? Would you go back just far enough to be able to build enough ships to make sure you win the unwinnable battle or would you go back far enough to stop your enemy at the source?
These are the decisions that Shiloh must make.

Yes, this series contains time travel. If you are like me you know that this is a tough area to write about. Paradoxes open them selves up without even realizing it. Dietmar Wehr does a great job making the time travel premise makes sense and seem plausible.

I am really looking forward to more coming from Wehr. He is able to make a space opera journey have heart and soul. While keeping all the technology high tech with just enough techno-babble to keep me interested but not so much that I got board. The emphasis on the growth and development of the AI beings was one of the items that sends this series over the top for me. Along with amazingly deep and multidimensional human characters and also evolve throughout the story.

Throughout this entire series Luke Daniels delivered a performance that was amazing in all aspects, and this last book is no exception. Daniels will continue to be at the top of my go-to narrator list because of performances like the one he give not once but four times in this incredible series.

If you want interesting characters, amazing space battles and rival those of Jack Campbell, time travel that works, hostile and friendly aliens, convincing technology and well a whole lot of fun. This series is for you.
