This was an absolutely fantastic read! Once again, Kallias' imagination seems to know no limits. The action scenes were breathtaking and have created indelible images in my mind that are reminiscent of legendary scifi movies. Kallias is an extremely talented author and I look forward to the next installment in his series. I received a free copy of this book and chose voluntarily to review it.

Outstanding Space Opera!!!!
I am currently reading Christian Kallias' series Universe In Flames, and I simply cannot put my Kindle down for more than a few minutes. The whole series is well built from the beginning, and the plot twists and turns catch this reader by surprise pretty much every time. That never gets old!

Surprised
The plot keeps evolving. However I do hope there will be a resolution to some of the conflicts soon. Still great though.

Another great book by Christian. I thought I was finally going to finish this series, but it looks as though I'll have to wait.

Asgardians, Olympians and a crazy A.I.
My head is spinning, as if fighting the Furies isn't enough, there is an insane A.I. thrown into the mix. It's like taking a trip down the rabbit hole and ending up in Narnia, with the addition of huge explosions and a lot of blood.
I have read this far in the series in a matter of days and get more involved in the story the more I read. It is riveting.

Kindle Unlimited, tho first one might be permafree or whatever. Space opera plus, think that is the 'genre' if you have to have one. I liked it, it having a little bit of almost everything and even some humor although noticed one of the reviews {which only glance at and only after already reading the book} said might have been unintentional...but to my way of thinking maybe the reader just found it humorous. As far as things not being realistic or whatever, well it's space opera and we are not in space for real yet so who knows, besides perhaps the writers of doctor who or star trek or the like, I mean come on Olympian Gods and you are just at what point thinking some things aren't 'real' enough

Getting better
I feel like each of his book in this series are improving upon the last one. At times they seem unimaginative, repetitive in nature. But they are improving. I am hoping to share these with my son.

The battle continues
Chase and his crew have to visit Zeus, but as always it needs a battle for allies to work together. But the battle with Gaia 2 has taken a turn for the worse. Can Chase fight all these battle at once.

Awesome read
The battle continues. Chase is growing stronger, but the battles are more complicated, his family, friends and colleagues are fighting on all fronts to bring an end to the Fury menace, hoping to gather forces to help rid the galaxy of a foe long considered dead. Not only do they have to deal with the Fury, but a rogue AI who is determined to wipe out mankind for, as she sees it, causing damage to planet Earth endangering Earth's flora and fauna.
Christian Kallias does it again in style, new characters, a new foe and a long running battle for the Earth Alliance. Chris' Imagination and prose, puts you there with his characters. For the first time I cried when reading a dialogue between former enemies, Chris' writing pulls you along on a fantastic voyage, you can't help feeling empathy for his characters, it's just impossible. I thought this was the end of the space opera, so I'm very pleased to find out, number 7 is on the way! Bring it on. Can't wait.

A group is trying to save earth, but everyone else has to vacate. An amazing space story that keeps you reading until the end and then you want it to keep going. Will the group be able to save earth in time. Couldn't put the book down

The best book of the saga so far. All characters gain in depth and the multiple storylines keep you reading without a stop.
