Founding of the Federation #3
The First AI War
The First A.I. War On August 4th, 2200 civilization in the Sol star system changed forever. A hacker unleashed a virus of unprecedented power and malevolent intelligence to insidiously take over Earth's electronic network. But sapient life was not doomed. Athena, the A.I. created by Lagroose Industries sprang to the defense of all life even as Earth was wracked by nuclear weapons. Even as the mushroom clouds rose in the sky and the cities fell the survivors must find a way to survive while the spacers got organized to find a way to end the war. Jack Lagroose and his family are on the forefront of that effort. Jack will stop at nothing to make certain civilization survives. New soldiers are needed for a new war, and a new government must be formed to lead them. Will the Spacers unite to get it done? If you doubt it, then you don't know Jack!

Good read, if you know the world of the federation.
This book in the series drags a bit being a prequel to the others. I think that the characters in this book aren't fully developed enough. There are simply too many to keep track of. All that being said love Chris's books. And wish he would write more.

The First AI War put a lot of pieces together from the other books in the Wandering Engineer world. We knew that there was an AI war but had no idea of the true nature of the war. That the AI was bent on complete destruction of humanity. The war also brought about additional Neo's, specifically the predator species, the fear of nanites and antimatter. But the worse part is what happened with Jack and his company, nothing worse than having people you always thought you could trust and have your back, stick a knife in it. I will not add any more than that as it would be a major spoiler, read the book.
Very good read.

History...
The beginning is a bit disjointed but it then smoothes out to become a really entertaining story with new insights and all the horrors of war. The ending prepares you for a whole new book which I am anxiously looking forward to read.
