Aeon 14: The Genevian Queen #1
Rika Rising
A Queen Will Rise
Rika and her Marauders have taken control of the Genevia System and reestablished their people’s independence—but the Nietzschean Empire will not give up easily, and forces are already aligned against her.
Battles of a different sort now loom, and if Rika wants to guide her people forward, she’ll need to officially accept the mantle of responsibility.
So long as she can rise to the challenge amidst the war that still rages against Nietzschea….

Rika Rules!
In this new series Rika has to deal with the aftermath of liberating Genevia and all that follows.
M.D. Cooper definitely delivers with this new book.
As the dust settles Rika is focused on the new government for her people only to find that not everyone is happy with Rika and her Mechs. Everything from Niet forces to members of the old Genevian government that think the universe would be better off without Rika in charge.
If you're looking for a new scifi series to sink your teeth into then you will love this fast paced action packed thrill ride.

Long Live the Queen
This was a bit of a hair raiser. I had more than one unexpected little twist, and a couple expected ones. Long may she reign.

Author M.D. Cooper brings us the beginning of the next adventure for Rika and her Marauders. The former head of the government that Rika and her troops are originally from doesn't want to retake the Presidency of the Genevan government, he wants Rika to take that mantel and so much more because he can see that she is unlike any other person from his former government and that she has great potential. But the first steps in reestablishing a government that had been under the heal of one that the Marauders will beat down until they feel how being subjugated is. But As this is going on Oda a man who clams that he is the rite full ruler of the government sets his back up plan into motion only for it to be swatted down. This is a great continuation of the Rika Marauders books and I highly recommend it and I'm looking forward to reading what comes next.

Don’t let your silly prejudice stop you, read the series is an excellent hard science fiction book.
Mechanized soldiers, artificial intelligence, technology, hard science fiction, what more could you ask for in a sci-fi book don’t let the designations of LGBTQ stop you from reading the series, you shouldn’t care if the authors name is Michael or Mallory, what you should care about is if the author delivers you an excellent product. And that they keep their personal lives and situations out of the storyline. All you find in this book is a great cast of characters, excellent hard science fiction as well as action humor and adventure, give it a try.

Fun Cast
I finished the main Orion War series while also reading the first Rika series before coming to this. I really enjoy Rika and company and can easily support them. This takes place right after they take back Genevia, and I'm surprised so much was discussed just to get things settled, but when I think back it was all necessary to give us the full story. I can definitely recommend this to anyone who enjoys this universe, but definitely read the first Rika series before this one.

Another strong story this one, is quite a thriller I found, with a different battlefront to be faced for Rika here. Some different antagonists here, with some quite different drivers in play making for some interesting twists and turns as well as adding to the suspense. Rika and the Marauders in good form again here, we continue to see Rika grow and her team grow around her. Book became very hard to put down, building to a strong finish.

Excellent book, if you looking for a fantasy heroine, admired, idealized filled with courage leadership, futuristic and just bad ass check these Rika nobles. This young girl was put through hell, but what comes out of her amazing.. the stuff she goes through awesome adventure struggle. That is all I am going to say about this Character.

Fantastic, brilliant, awesome, glorious...
I could fill this space with superlatives and still not do this book justice. Happiness, sadness, cliffhanger moments, joy, fear... it has them all. Best book I’ve read so far this year and that’s high praise indeed!

So much hate!
Won’t lie. This story will make you laugh and cry. It is so well written that you not only will hate the enemy more, you will also hate some of the people claiming friendship. With that said you will want to become a Mech yourself now

Detailed action and strategy
As usual, MD Cooper delivered a detailed action and strategy in a very realistic way. Always a pleasure to read the attention to small but very pivotal stuff here.
