Bleakest

by Jacqueline Druga

Commander Finch believes he has finally, and safely, returned his crew home.

But a jump through the Androski wormhole takes the Omni and her crew to 1993. Fifty years before their original mission.

Now Finch and the crew must navigate a past that is still behind in technology until they can safely jump again. They must do so without interfering with the past…and without getting caught.

Time is running out and the Androski will soon close. They face not only a leap of time but faith in where they end up.

The past could be just as deadly as the future.

Prepare for the final installment of the Earth Endures trilogy.

I liked the recap at the beginning. It's been a while since I read the 2 previous books so it really helped me remember what had happened.

I was a little confused by the alternating chapters/timelines. I wasn't entirely sure who wrote the log entries and what year they were from.

I really liked the world building, especially the time travel and science elements.

The pacing was just right and I liked how there was always a sense of urgency because the characters only had a certain amount of time to make decisions and act.

The ending was a bit too sudden for me. I wanted to know what happened a bit more and if the characters managed to actually prevent certain things from happening or not.

this is my fav one of the trilogy as so far my fav of her books. She got a decent editor, though there are still some glitches, the the writing is more error free than her virus books. The story of this Bleak Series is great.. contains some believable scifi, and some great ways they are doing time travel. A fun book, and this 3rd one is chock full of humor. I loved it, and will miss the characters.

Fantastic

I couldn’t put the series down and I want more! So many twists. I love Jacqueline Druga books. I did find two words that were incorrectly spelled checked. I had to re-read the sentence a few times to figure it out. Example: “word” should be “world”. See if you can find the other! Otherwise a great story. Will there be a follow-up? I hope so.

Great series

I loved this series, although I read it too quickly. Good books I can't just put down. Loved the cast of characters, Tucker was the greatest or Finch, I loved them all. If you're into great fiction this series is for you. I recommend reading this series.

Ok,I read all 3 books. I Thoughly enjoyed them. I love books about time travel, but I kept losing track of who was in what time. The whole series is a keeper.

Looking forward

One of the best read in a long time. Read the trilogy one after the other without letting time pass.
