Up All Night

I like reading the works of this author. They are a bit dark for my tastes but they are well written and well thought out.

My biggest problem with this current series is that no one seems to have a video recording device. And also no access to this universes version of YouTube or Twitter. It seems like a lot of problems could have been sorted if there was video that could be played to the general public. The entire alien war thing seems to have played out like a black ops mission. With the general public non the wiser.

Also, there are some glaring mistakes in this book. Just one or two. For example, it says that Odin met up with the fleet from Naraka after getting the alien mothership, at an uninhabited planet a few AUs from Earth. Then he asks Amelia if there had been any news of Earth before she left Naraka. Then when Rozik shows up they jump to Earth. What was that about? If the are already in the Sol system, what is this uninhabited planet? Why dont they know whats happening to earth? Why do they need to make a 3 day jump to Earth?

Just a few of my thoughts.

I guess the editor was still sleeping. I had to keep stumbling though the grammatical junk and it really aggregated me. Was there no Editor for this series? It really broke the flow when I would read that so and so and me crossed the bridge…Excuse me… ME ? Come ON… So and so and I crossed the bridge. I also found the whole thing verbose and got tired of the reiteration of the thought that was just mentioned, again and several times over. Is the author paid by the word?

Mr. Forbes has put the final act of the star end series with vividly detailing the characters and the surrounding images of space and war. The cast is simple but their deeds and intentions are interwoven into the plot to make this book a fitting finale. I enjoyed the series. I think you might too, if you like space, action, and struggle of wills in the imagination of future sci-fi. Keep reading and get involved with Mr. Forbes writing.

I have read a lot M.R. Forbes books and this one is in my top 3. The characters and the story was so well written. I enjoyed every minute of the books! If you’re looking for a great series to read and enjoy sifi I would recommend this series!

The main character in this book was somewhat predictable, but his friend/foe lent a quality of unknown and intrigue to the plot. The action is compelling and keeps the reader interested. Overall, it was a fun read even if you knew that the protagonist was always going to win the day.
