First Line of Defense 2

First Line of Defense, Book 2

By: Benjamin Kerei

Narrated by: Travis Baldree, Gary Furlong

Morgan Mars is doing everything he can to protect humanity from alien invasion.

But even his new organization, The First Line of Defence, isn’t enough to save what’s already lost. Sectors are collapsing like dominoes as the aftermath of the 20th Cycle invasion leaves everyone trapped in the falling Sectors. No one knows what to do. No one, that is, except Nicholas Thistlebush. He has a plan to save Sector 6. The only question is, what will it cost him?

Glad I stayed

I was really upset when the pov changed, thankfully it isn't permanent and it switches between both. The main character from the last one is in about 20% of the book witch kinda sucks but the new character's story is very interesting and I found myself looking forward to his part of the story just as much as the original mc. I hope the author keeps up with this series because I'm liking where it's going and what I've read so far.

Wished Simple Mike killed Nicholas

Story was entertaining but I hated Nicholas. The worst kind of person. A selfish coward he does however grow as a character at the end of the book.

I like the aspect of humanity in the book.

It was very jarring to see a new character pop up, gain a bunch of power, and become the book's main character. Overall, it was still a good book, but it was just very jarring. I understand the need to give humanity a foothold in the galaxy that the author is making. I wish the book focused more on Morgan Mars, but I do like Nicholas Thistlebush. From my subjective point of view, it was kind of an Ex Machina. From the point of view of the first book, with humans losing sectors left and right, it seems that there was no challenge with the new character being introduced.
Again, it is still a good book.

the narrators were great

this was good it scared me when I didn't hear the mc but I'm happy with all of the story and it got better and better

Another great story by this author

I really enjoyed this. It was interesting, surprising, and added a second main character that I actually cared about. I look forward to the third book in the series.
