Finally reunited with her long-lost mother, Galindra faces her greatest challenge yet as the hideous chitheon smashes through the wormhole to an overpopulated Earth, clearing the way for an even greater evil to emerge, threatening billions…
In case you don’t know by now, Galindra is a ForeSender, a dragon-shifter, battle mage and telepath whose mission is to protect the Continuum of Planets from all threats foreign and domestic.
As Galindra and Valeth race to save the Earth, Salith, back on Calistra, brings siege warfare to a traitorous Usurper, amid threats of another incursion by Voiders.
In this conclusion to the ForeSender Chronicles, I really liked the conflict between Salith and his mother, which made for a memorable reunion. If I had a critique, I’d like to see more of that complexity in some of the romantic subplots, which sometimes feel like little more than light flirting.
That said, “ForeSender Resolve” definitely brings the dragon’s breath to this exciting series finale. Writing in crisp, precise prose, Adrian Murphy delivers a fun, high-octane mash-up of sci-fi and fantasy that’s wholesome and clean while providing plenty of face-melting action. Two thumbs way up!

Adventure that you won't soon forget!
This was a very good addition and conclusion to this series. Galindra does not have an easy life, but it is never dull! I mean, it's not like she's just a mortal on Earth! She is stuck on Earth, but she is not a normal mortal, and she has to work to protect both humanity and her Mom! A very exciting story that will not bore you!
This is a great story that Adrian Murphy has brought to life in a most Wonderful way!
I received an ARC copy and this is an honest review.

Read this book in one night. Loved it. Every page kept me turning and reading until 3am. Even though this is a series ender, it is not the universe ender, and I'm stoked to see what other adventures Galindra and company encounter! Highly recommend this whole series if you like clean reads but are good with some violence as well as space opera, military scifi, epic fantasy, mystery, and sweet romance mashups.

Another Page-Turner That Kept Me Reading All Night!
Dragons, powerful & brave women, and a fantasy world so well constructed that you believe it really exists! What more could a reader want? Constant action, descriptive & realistic battle scenes, a strong mother-daughter relationship—all of these are in the ForeSender series. This latest installment does not disappoint!

like an adventure movie
Wouldn’t it be nice to have an alternate form? This book filled with shapeshifter dragons, magic, soldiers and the undead is a rollicking off world adventure. The sensory detail and description drew me in and made me part of the action. It reminded me of the series Stargate. I love the combination of military and fantasy.

I've really enjoyed this series. The worldbuilding is excellent and I was totally swept away in the brilliant combination of sci-fi, including an Earth invasion to equal Avatar, with a strong high fantasy world where dragon and wolf shifters, not to mention trolls, run rampant.
This epic finale for the quintet is absolutely awesome. I enjoyed every moment of it and had a lot of fun seeing how things develop for the cast of fun characters. My particular favourite was the reunion of Galindra with her long-lost mother and these two ladies make a formidable mother-daughter team.
In a way, I'm actually sad it's over. I've been slowly working my way through this series and although the ending was wonderful and deeply satisfying, I long for more of this blend of fantasy and technology, not to mention the wonderful characters I've grown so fond of.

An Action-packed read
Galindra and her friends take their challenges head on in this fast read. There was never a dull moment and the storyline keeps you going from one chapter to the next.
A great conclusion to Murphy’s Forsender series.
