1.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't follow the first book.

I seldom just STOP reading a book that I've started, but I'm putting this one down.
The story simply does not seem to follow Book one. It's as if there's a huge gap in continuity. As far as I can tell the entire first three chapters are either a flashback or a flash forward. There are characters we don't know, and situations that we have no idea how anyone got into.
if this is supposed to be a clever literary ploy, the author has waited far too long to resolve anything for this book to keep my interest. I'm done. Moving on.

5.0 out of 5 stars Vengeance

Sheriff Duke, in my opinion, finally is starting to get payback. In the earlier books in the series, he was putting out the smaller fires. Here, he went for the head of the snake. There were casualties all the way, there were several very close calls, and an interesting climax.

I think the biggest draw for his books are the depth of the characters. And a continuation of the story line. You get know them and become invested in their success/survival.

Again ... not stop action. Good character development. An excellent read with characters you grow to respect. This one has a lot of very strange plot twists. "Affirmation. HaHaHa. HaHa!"

5.0 out of 5 stars The showdown

Well paced and exciting. This third and final instalment rounded up the Sheriff Duke stories very well. It left me wanting to read on, which I have done. Continuing onto the next set, it picks up right from where No Way Back finishes. M.R Forbes is a great sci-fi writer.

THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SOME MINOR SPOILERS ABOUT EVENTS IN THE FORGOTTEN SERIES.

A nice conclusion to this “mini-trilogy’ within the bigger Forgotten universe. Without having read what Sgt. Caleb Card has to add to the story (Forgotten Colony series) in the Sheriff Duke stories we got to learn a lot more about the origin of the xenotrife, the one’s who sent them, as well as their war against WHAT Earthers know as “the Others”, an ancient conflict that started long before our very existence.
Forbes is expanding his Forgotten Universe into an awesome series, with multiple open plot lines that are slowly starting to converge from all four corners of the Relyeh-controlled universe. Can’t wait for what the upcoming Forgotten Vengeance series has to offer. In the mean time, I’ll catch up with Sgt. Card’s story in the Forgotten Colony sub-series, which for sure will have a lot to say in the battle against the ancient aliens.
