Venus War

Pax Solis, Book 2

By: B. V. Larson, David VanDyke

Narrated by: Tom Taylorson

Lieutenant Alex "Flex" Callahan watched helplessly as the first refugee ships fled Venus. Something was driving them mad, transforming both crew and vessels into horrors. But this was just the beginning.

The mysterious alien menace that calls itself The Cure has arrived, threatening not only death and destruction but the monstrous and chilling corruption of humanity itself. While Flex works tirelessly to discover the true nature of The Cure, he is beset on all sides by doubters and enemies within.

As Venus falls and the infection spreads, Flex faces enemies on all sides. Military command refuses to accept the true scope of the threat, while his Senator father plays political games that could doom humanity. With transformed crew members appearing in Earth's fleet and time running out, Flex must convince Earth's leadership that their only choice is total war—before The Cure's technological evolution transforms them all into something no longer human.

black balls!!!

I love BV Larson but here's the thing, book 2 was AMAZING! In book 2 we introduce P & black balls, the phrase is said thousands of times! I have this urge to repeat phrases I find silly aloud. my wife was on the verge of smothering me with a pillow in my sleep I blurted BLACK BALLS & P! hundreds of times.... I can't even finish this series. I may be a 53 year old man but I have the mind of a juvenile delinquent!

Everything was fine. This was pretty good book.

I like everything about the book nice pace very surprising i’m definitely gonna download more.

Good but they can’t write women

Other than the strain I got from rolling my eyes whenever a woman shows up, it was entertaining.

Good ending segment

Creative writing during the last chapters. The hero’s character is cliche but worth the read.

Story is coming along nicely

I love the friendship building between Yarl and Alex. Hope you expand on it and test the limits of the bond. I still think you need to ditch Alex's immature girlfriend. He's grown up too much to put up with such Highschool drama nonsense. Keep up the great work.
