What’s that, bald monkey? Think everything’s dandy because you’ve got a few missions under your belt and made a bit of a name for yourself on that backward planet of yours? Ha! Think again!
I bet you’ll be singing a different tune after you've been offered a personal assignment. You'll be a superstar rolling in credits if you succeed, but if you mess it up, you could lose everything. I’m talking “Legionnaire-career-over” kind of everything.
Oh, don’t give me that face—look on the bright side! You've got the best agent in the galaxy at your service, after all! There’s nothing you can’t do with me! Just make sure you don’t stop killing bugs, otherwise hundreds of my little ones will start getting very hungry indeed…
I didn't receive an ARC for this book, but that is okay. I will still send the publisher an email letting them know about the review as well as the mistakes I found. This book is mostly just one long mission behind enemy lines on an occupied planet.
This book spent a good amount of time on a single mission, but thankfully, it wasn't the only one, and there was significant growth during said mission, so the story stands up well. If you liked the first book in this series, you're likely to enjoy this one as well. If you like battles, aliens, watching bugs get stomped, and of course, all that goes along with said stomping, then you definitely want to read this series.
I love this series but now I am frustrated, I read the first three books, then find out that book four is not released until December! And the final book in next year! From now on when I choose a book to buy I shall check to see if all the books are available in the series! If not I shall not be buying any, note to all authors, this is why some people don’t give reviews, if you want reviews then make sure that when we buy your book we don’t have to wait nearly a year to finish the series, will I get the last two books? Doubtful, not impressed at all! The books are fantastic! But I feel as if I have been cheated!
Fun and entertaining.... Solid story, light-hearted but action packed and interesting
I read book 1 and 2 back to back and never felt bored or out of place. Main character is great, leading the series without extra filler or exposition, sometimes the supporting cast gets a little tiresome, but interaction is so quick that you're quickly back into action in a fast-pacing again. It's simple fun and entertaining.
This book was no where near as good as the first. The whole earth plot is completely ignored as we go off on a "mission" that consumes the whole book.
Could just be me, but this isn't what I was expecting given the first book's rapid plot development. I ended up skimming through this book from about the 40% mark.
In this series a race of bugs have morphed into enormous flesh eating, species eliminaters who somehow move from planet to planet eating everything then moving on. With the alien races working together and a few humans they move consusses from body to engineered body so they can fight without actually dying. Good Read.
First book was good and this one is even better. A fairly original take on an apocalypse scenario. Smart and well thought out mc. Looking forward to book 3.
