Reseñas de la Crítica

"The military action is brutal and vivid, the situation is tense and believable...." ( Publishers Weekly)

Very good book

Great storyline. I enjoyed the story about a guy who works hard kind of like a unmasked Batman lol.

Fun Romp

This is a fun action story. All kinds of Sci-fi gadgets. Likeable characters. Even some of the villains are likeable. I bought the sequel.

Liked the characters

I’m not loving the narrator. The story was good enough for me to get past that.

Very Good Military SciFi

The writing and tempo was mostly excellent and the narrated performance was superb, as I've come to expect from Todd McLaren. However, there was some areas where the tempo slowed while the author provided backstory to the planet's human civilian inhabitants and their matriarchal tribal society.

Overall, I found the novel interesting and entertaining and look forward to listening to the next book in the series.

Lots of action

Good story line great character’s the action leads to more stories go come or the story can stand alone
