Omega Force #18
Killshot
“Listen! The name, Vimonan… remember it.”
That desperate plea pulled Captain Jason Burke and Omega Force down the rabbit hole into the lawless underworld of the Orion Region, hunting a lethal new syndicate that’s carving through the criminal empires with ease.
With the crew cut off from allies and every move watched, Jason and his team must expose the endgame before the entire sector explodes—without putting their friends squarely in the crosshairs.
Omega Force is on its own.
Backs against the wall.
And that’s exactly when they’re the most dangerous.
Killshot is the 18th book in the international bestselling sci-fi series.

Awesome book
As usual this was a great read. It wa s worth the wait. I enjoyed the story. It pulls you quickly and becomes a page turner. Great work as usual from Mr. Dalzelle. Now begins the waiting game.

Closing with a big finish!
Omega Force has been continuously running and gunning during the majority of this book. Jason and crew have been in serious fights for a good portion of the time and when they haven’t been, it’s just the waiting for either target acquisition or deciding on what the next target needs to be.
The enemy has a sophisticated strategy that uses an effective, unorthodox weapon that works well as both a threat and an efficient killer as well. While some parts of the story arc are fairly well wrapped up, Dalzelle has left the ending with several obvious items that have to be resolved. So there’s either going to be a book 9 or a spinoff series where we can find out how things are resolved. The pacing is quick as usual with the characters being a bit more fleshed out regarding their backgrounds.

Another outstanding book!
Once again, this author has written an outstanding book. Whatever the skill is that he has, he keeps using it over and over and over.And it still comes out outstanding every time! It's now to the point where I just buy his books, especially if omega's involved!
I really have been reading for a long time, and it's truly rare to run across somebody that can continue to do this So well!
This one is just as good as all the rest, do yourself a favor and buy em all! You really will not be disappointed.

A damn good book
18 books in and the series continues to deliver at a high level. My ratings range from 4* to 5*, never lower
This time round, it's a bit of a one and done book, nothing leading in from previous books and not much left to take up on future books
The crew all function in their usual dysfunctional way, yet it works for them. A young again Crusher is even more annoying as the older version, if such a thing were possible
Only downside to this series is, I wish they came along quicker. I look forward to them and cannot wait for 19 to arrive

Book eighteen and it still delivers.
Killshot felt tight, focused and genuinely intense. The team dynamic still felt great after so many books together, the crew have matured in a way that feels earned rather than forced.
The story itself was on point. The threat felt dangerous and credible, especially with the long range assassination angle. There was a constant sense of pressure. The action rarely let up but it never felt chaotic. It felt controlled, deliberate and personal.

Jason and crew continue to get it done
Reading an Omega Force novel is like spending an evening with an old friend. It’s both comforting and exhilarating. Dalzelle is a master of team banter and while you can tell these brothers love each other, they are just this side of a nooggie fight.
Kill shot is a great addition to the other OF books. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and look forward to the next one.

These stories continue to be great. I am impressed that I can be this entertained by a series that has gone on this long. I love these books. While not maybe the best in the series, it's really not far off. Really enjoyed the idea of this new weapon. Glad to continue to run along with the crew, although I will say that Similan got has been getting a bum deal lately, between Terran Scout Fleet and this book. Sad to see it.

Joshua must have had a migraine or a good drink when thinking up Killshot
I have been reading about my Omega brothers for years on and off through Work
Now retired I've started from the beginning,everything going smoothly very funny
And then Killshot BAM right between the 👀
FABULOUS.

A pleasure top read with non stop action all the way, my first thoughts were will it be a stand alone story, no there is more to come I can't wait. Jushua's books are some of the few I do purchase at full price, others I have a tendency to wait for a box set but when a new Omega force come out I have to buy it

Good read.
This book was a good good one it kept me up late into the morning reading just to see what happened next . There was a lot of action both on planets and in space with plenty of fighting going on . The storyline was very well thought out . I love the over powered space craft that they use it is full of surprises.

This is the five-star rating system I use:
★★★★★ Great book! Can’t wait to read it again (and I will).
★★★★☆ Good book. I am glad I read this.
★★★☆☆ OK book. Nothing special but not bad.
★★☆☆☆ Not good. Why did I waste my time?
★☆☆☆☆ Lousy. I didn’t finish.
If for whatever reason, I go back and reread a good book, I will change the rating to five-star because I read it again.

A Good Old Omega Force story
I really enjoyed this one. I’ve been reading Omega Force for years and recently, it’s felt like everything is always so high stakes and there’s an opportunity for us to lose someone important. This was a good old, “let’s kick some teeth in” and I enjoyed that.

Brilliant book, as always. Inhaled it in 2 days. Full of action and love the comedic interplay between all the characters now we have a better understanding of each character from so many books in the series.

Another beauty…
Another great adventure with Jason and the crew but again it was too short, I read it in two days!!
Can’t wait for the next instalment but sadly I feel we may be heading for the inevitable climax of the series.

Interesting read
Once again the team goes to work on a shadowy group out for galactic domination. This was a pretty engaging story that I finished quick. It was entertaining. The crew interactions as always were hilarious.

The team are back and after the murder of a close friend are soon investigating and looking for payback. As they look deeper, they soon come up against a sinister group that can assassinate any target from any distance. Another good adventure, as the team continues to deliver.

making an enemy and an alliance
When Jason and his crew try to protect a client that dies under their protection, it opens a new problem. Really enjoyed the comradeship between these characters

Really really good!!
Great story. Awesome new enemies and weapons. You can definitely feel the age of the crew, and it sends some authenticity to the story. Worth a read.

Editor Needed
The story was good,as usual , however there were many grammatical errors that a seasoned writer should not be making. Get an Editor!
