As the shadow grows long over Earth, deep space may hold the key
In this third installment of the Sons of Neptune saga, Sam and Bohai have gone into outer space with Walter aboard the starship Praihawk to find help from their warlike ancestors against the invaders of Earth. What they find instead is a lonely starbase - which raises more questions than answers. 
Meanwhile, Dexter plans to return to Neptune to get revenge on his brother, and the alien invasion continues on Earth. At the Peak hotel, more survivors are gathering to join the fight against the aliens in a final struggle for survival.
Saving Earth is no longer an option. Now their only hope lies somewhere beyond the stars, and time is running out.
The thrilling next installment to the Sons of Neptune series.

The Last Starbase is book 3 in the Sons of Neptune series. Shane, Sam, and company discover an ancient starship, the Praihawk, buried in the Artic and plan to use it to get help from their ancestors of long ago.

The Peak, a refugee stronghold established by Shane and Sam, is attracting survivors of the alien invasion. But, are all of these people really human and is there a spy in their midst working for Lusus, the alien rebel Commander?

Sam and Bohai, the boy who can communicate with animals, take the Praihawk and push the button that will return it to its home base. After weeks in space, they encounter an amazing starbase at the edge of the Milky Way Galaxy. But there’s one problem—the base is deserted except for an android and a very lonely old man.

Rod Little continues with his writing excellence in this third installment of the Sons of Neptune series. His environmental descriptions keep readers grounded, his character depictions continue readers’ investment in their trials, and his plot is padded with pages of exciting reading.

This reviewer looks forward to book 4, The Boneyards of Nebula, the concluding chapter of the Sons of Neptune, but feels a twinge of remorse—Why do all good things come to an end?

Loved it. Not much of a review I know but I seriously love this author and where he takes his characters. I devour his books as soon as I get them. Everything else goes to the back burner. I can't wait to get to the end and then I'm left waiting and wanting the next book to see where Sam, Bohai and Teaks adventures take them next. Again Love It!

The stakes and scope keep getting bigger and bigger. Action, mystery, exploration. I love it. Another solid entry in the Sons of Neptune series.
