War of the Fallen

Rogue Survivors

by Angela R. Watts

To save her brother, civilian Marci Maxwell will do whatever it takes…

Even if it means joining forces with a runaway super soldier and mercenary space mafia.

After the Space Guardians strand Marci Maxwell aboard Gold Chaser, she finds herself in a fight for her life against rabid monsters sent to kill her… until stowaway Kenji Matsuoka appears. After narrowly escaping the monster-infested ship, the duo must join a crew of space mafia to infiltrate the impenetrable Space Guardians HQ: the men that created Kenji, kidnapped Marci’s brother... and are aiding the fallen gods in creating a supreme human race.

The ragtag crew must face traitors in their midst and demons from their pasts before they stand a chance against the Guardians. When they finally begin their risky infiltration to save dozens of victims, they're met with an unexpected trial: the Guardians need Marci for their ultimate plan. And the gods will stop at nothing to obtain her.

If Marci is called “small and angry” one more time I’m going to BECOME small and angry.

Full thoughts to come once I catch up on my review backlog. Again. 🤦🏼‍♀️😅

This is a novel full of heart. Angela has crafted a great cast of characters and an intriguing set-up for a trilogy. I'm very glad I have the next two books on hand. I'm looking forward to binging this series.

Mild language, then the mmc being an absolute idiot in my mind I kept thinking “no guy ever talks like this”. Their squabble when they first met was awkward and weirdly put I want to say the word hot was used at least 4 times in their first conversation. I was ready for anything else to DNF and did with the description of brains being splattered. Anyone of these on their own I probably would have kept on. But all of those in the first 10min I was done.

It was sad though. My first impression was that maybe I’d actually find a space opera I could finish. I LOVE sci fi. But I’ve yet to find a sci fi book like the shows I enjoy that I can enjoy.

The story wasn't bad, though not really my personal cup of tea. The writing itself felt like it needed another round of editing at least.
