2022 Grade B
The novel starts a little slow with a necessary bit of review, but once the space travel from the Rishalt system to the Earth system starts, it picks up rapidly and is pretty exciting. At the end there is some repetition, and it is slightly slow. Both of those I speed read lightly. The overall story is interesting and wraps up the lose ends. My cynicism makes me doubt the speedy resolution by the governments, but I suspended my disbelief. The story makes an enjoyable conclusion to the first triad (pun intended).
There are more books in the Taxyon series now, but I think they involve new characters. I doubt I will read those, but the author has some stand alone novels. I will probably buy one of those eventually.

Great read!
The third book is just as good as the first two. I am on to the fourth. Will have to try one of her other books because I read too fast! If they are as good as this series I will be a happy reader!
