The Fist

The Convergence War #4

by M.R. Forbes

A child captured. A battle lost. A desperate fight for survival.

Still reeling from their defeat, Soren and his allies are beaten back but not defeated. With their sights set on a new target—one of ultimate importance to the enemy—the fight for the fate of the galaxy continues.

The stakes are high. The cost, higher. And even if they emerge victorious, survival is anything but assured.

I couldn’t put it down. Usually I only read a chapter or two before turning in for the night, but I finished this one in one sitting.

The stakes continue to escalate, and the risks never have been higher. One of the things I love with this book is the ability to capture some of the emotional highs and lows of characters outside the core crew.

Eagerly awaiting the next entry and will definitely be reading again.

Wonderful! Exactly what I was looking for. I would still like to see a bit more of Dana's perspective, but not a page was wasted in this book of the series. I love the effort put into the editing as well. No annoying typos, breaks, or unfinished sentences that seem almost an industry standard in the digital SF book world these days. Can't wait for the next one. Great job!

Breath taking

This book series is unbelievable. Exciting from start to finish. Even though its fiction, much is based on actual science.
The Author is outstanding and writes in an easy to digest form.
I just finished book 4 and I can say thus far I've enjoyed this adventure as much as any I've ever read.
Its excellent!!!!

It's not fair leaving us hanging like that!

This was an intense experience. Halfway through the book I didn't want to put it down! The plot was right was right in front of me, yet there were so many twists and turns that made it that much more intense!

Still enjoying the Convergence War books - very interesting but not only tech or war strategy - I specifically appreciate reading about the challenges of the main characters in this series.
Cannot wait for the 5th book to be available.

Good read.

This was a good book it was full of action and with 3 galaxies involved you kind of have to pay close attention to what's going on so you know what and who's galaxy you're in. The book was also a fun read also. Can't wait for the next one.

Can't put it down exciting!

This was an excellent read. The character development is typical Forbes. Books 2 & 3 were five stars as well. Now, its time for book 5. I've no doubt it will be 5 stars as well.

Great story, good characters

I've enjoyed many of Forbes' boos and this series is as good any of them. I'm looking forward to the 5th volume,

One battle may have been won

Well Alex and his team maybe prisoners, but don't count them out. If there is a will there is a way. Alex just needs to find it.

great series

MR Forbes … you have a great story telling skill
This series has been so captivating and exciting I love it and can’t wait for the next book

[Chris Page · Rating 2 out of 5]

It's ok but dragging now, just not enough material for the length of the 4 books now covered, not rushing to find book 5.

[ColinPreston · Rating 1 out of 5]

lost the will to live

Slow and now very boring.
Gave up on the series
Boring, boring, yadda, yadda, yadda.
Do yourself a favour and read something else

[Nanette Mitchell · Rating 5 out of 5]

the fight goes on

Really enjoyed the tension and fighting that went on in this section. Looking forward to the last phase of this fight

[Ben · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great follow up!

Cannot wait to read the next book in the series! A great follow up to the previous three volumes! Looking forward to volume 5!

[Bill Lents · Rating 5 out of 5]

Exciting nonstop action......

The ongoing action kept me glued to the book. Every book in the series is crammed with action, despair, and continuing hope throughout. Great reads.

[Matt · Rating 3 out of 5]

Series is getting repetitive and tiresome at this point. Feel like this could have been done in 3 books.

[Anna · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very good indeed. I don’t usually read books this fast.

[Mitch & Connie Traywick · Rating 5 out of 5]

Anything is possible

Where were you when the dimensions collided? Fighting to save humanity or blaming every problem on someone else? Freedom is never free.
