Predator Space Chronicles #4
Omega Threshold: Earthrise
Amir Tarkos is one of the only humans in the Predator Corp, the most feared and respected military force in the Galaxy. With his partner Bria, a bear-like carnivore, Tarkos is on a dangerous and difficult mission to defend Earth from the last surviving Ulltrians, a race that once extinguished much of the life in the Galaxy.
Tarkos and Bria return to Earth to search for the Ulltrian presence hidden on the planet. But Earth is in turmoil as opposition grows to the plan to join the Galactic Alliance. And, thousands of light years away, a young human girl, Margarita Calvino, has uncovered the secret that will enable the Ulltrians to rule the Galaxy. Tarkos and Bria face the human underground, as Margarita must alone outsmart a hostile alien race.
Omega Threshold: Earthrise is the first half of the novel Omega Threshold. The book stands alone but--warning--ends in a cliffhanger. The sequel and resolution, Omega Threshold: Earthfall, will appear in December 2017.
This novel also forms part of the ongoing Predator Space Chronicles.

Intense
Volume in two parts, it's headed to a good plot. More to come with Tarkos and Bria. Earth potentially joining the Galactic alliance is shaking things up

I found the first three books full of action with these bigger than life Harmonizers kicking butt out in a huge galactic environment. This book suddenly comes back to earth with political struggles and crappy human problems and ends mid story (boo) with the Harmonizers looking weak. I'll read the next one but found this plot did not take me to new and fantastical places like the first three.

Many things happen, Tarkos is scolded and does the first stupid thing I've seen so far, and there are So Many Balls In the Air! Just FYI, you will want Earthfall immediately upon finishing this part of the story. *nips off to buy it*
