Wars Without End #4
The Giant War
The Earth Space Force Military has a huge problem. The massive alien Ogre that they had earlier fought was only an immature little one. The full-grown ones had found some derelict starships and were about to find one with an FTL drive.
Keith and his crew were tasked to sneak in and destroy the derelict that contained an FTL drive before the Ogres could find it. To do that, the Meduala sent them a living weapon to assist with the battle. One that the Meduala has spent thousands of years trying to deal with. Is the new weapon more of a problem than the Ogres?
The Ghost Ships that contacted Earth and requested this mission were hiding something critical. They also insist that this mission use only obsolete technology ships that they provided. As soon as the mission starts, all communications are unexpectedly severed. There is no phoning home for rescue. The Ogres spot them almost as soon as they arrive. The small arms they were permitted to carry are no match for an 18-foot-tall Ogre in an armored spacesuit carrying a 350-pound battle exe.

it's unashamed space opera!
The series starts as so many do, as good fun, but then the author tries to make it a continuous source of income. The misspellings and grammar errors are a steady annoyance. In spite of these issues , Mr Collins' ideas are interesting enough that I keep reading. However, we need a resolution!

Good sci fi adventure (with a military slant)
I enjoyed Giant War; there was more rescuing and exploring and new non-humans. Keith is still trying to save people. There is graphic violence with a body count. More questions arise than get answered.

Bad juju
The onion starts to finally have small cores. I kind of figured it had to come sooner or later as there was foreshadowing and hence throughout the first four books. Interesting that the reproductive shell was different from those who made the shell.

Not sure of its the kindle edition
There are a lot of typos and d color changes of tbe font throughout the book, quotation marks when there shouldn't be also.
It's a good storyline just a lot of formating and other errors that should've been fixed

good series
Could use another editing pass—lots of extra or missing words and oddly phrased segments like it was translated very loosely. However, it has fun characters, good pa ing, and interesting “world” building in the universe. ;)
