There’s lot going on in this book, but it all flows and comes together nicely. A great addition to the series.

I had trouble starting this. I tried a couple of times but there was so much going on, I couldn’t keep track. I went back and read the previous books and this was much easier after that. After settling into the story, it was fast paced, action packed and didn’t slow down for a minute. There are aliens with plans for world domination and unlikely heroes that are more like anti-heroes. Sometimes it takes a bad guy to save the world. The aliens are on a course to enslave humans and have assembled a huge fleet. Our “heroes” have to work above and beyond to even stay alive. There are no easy answers to this one. I’m looking forward to the next book to see how it all turns out. I did receive an ARC, but bought the book. I highly recommend reading the first two books prior to this before starting. It all makes sense if you have the backstory and will keep you reading until you are finished.
I did not read the first two books but this one is certainly wonderful. I would say captivating. The characters, the unlikely hero bunch, are all awesome or turn out wonderful. It is time to save humanity. Great read. Hoping for more from this author.

This one is complex and convoluted and has plenty of space battles, if that’s your thing, to fill most of a day.

In a world where aliens are everywhere and nearly all of them want you dead, the most important thing is to survive. This non-stop action adventure takes the reader on a roller coaster ride of fear and loathing. This one actually gave me nightmares!

What a thrill ride … a fantastic space adventure indeed! A Dim Zone novel, this premise continues with the adventures and misadventures of Regers, Miko, Audra, Yul, a rebel alien..and the rest of the roughboys. Between the alliance of two powerful aliens races -squid and locust type-humanity is still in danger to be wiped out of the galaxy. With the cruel and ferocious aliens behind the trepidant protagonists, the chase is on. The involuntary heroes are dragged into a war for survival and to save mankind. An incredible and resilient attitude, a demonstration of how dire situations can bring men together when everything is at stake, the survival of the human race. I could commiserate with their fears and hopes, a feeling of overwhelming despair, so realistic were the scenes. The revelations unfolded by The Masters are mind blowing! Horror filled, highly imaginative, and told from multiple points of view. Excellent fighting scenes, on ground and in space, fast paced and action filled. Nail biting, edge of seat moments! Next in line, Frontier and Xaromax!
