Publisher's summary

Peacemakers. The Galactic Union’s most capable enforcers and resolute negotiators, their name alone elicits fear and awe among the Union’s citizenry.

After the vicious attacks on Victoria Bravo, Commander Tara Mason and the newly formed Force 25 have no time to refit and reconstitute their depleted forces. Deputized by the Peacemaker Guild and charged with a time-sensitive mission - finding James “Snowman” Francis - Tara and her mercenaries deploy to the wintry world of Snowmass to follow a 50-year-old lead on Snowman’s disappearance.

Snowmass, though, is far from peaceful. A project of the controversial Dream World Consortium, the planetary government’s promises of pleasant weather and long growing seasons have fallen far short of expectations. Tempers are rising, and unknown attackers are damaging the Dream World Consortium’s equipment. They are also drawing the ire of Mayor Citsym and the Trenta Knights; Zuul mercenaries with more than 40 years of less-than-stellar experience providing the planet’s security.

Force 25 arrives on the planet and clandestinely deploys their attached Peacemakers, Vannix and Jackson Rains. But their hopes for a peaceful investigation of Snowman’s past are doomed from the start. Not only do they run into an assassination staged by the rogue Enforcer Kr’et’Socae and his minions, but the Trenta Knights also believe the newly arrived mercenaries to be a threat. They stage an attack to drive them from the planet.

But neither Kr’et’Socae, the local government, nor the Trenta Knights have ever seen anything like Force 25, and when the battle is joined, all of them - including Force 25 - will be forever changed.

A Slllllooooooww Story

For me, the action took way too long and it was very difficult to not skip ahead.
I cannot see getting the next book.

Maybe I’m not Smart Enough

I kind of enjoyed this.
But, I really didn’t know what was going on most of the time.
Next book (have to pay for), probably not.

couldn't finish it

I enjoyed the first book in the series but could not even make it to the end of this one. A completely different feeling from the first book.

The first book had a simple plot that was enjoyable and the characters were grate and well flushed out.

This book felt like it was trying for a more complex plot but wad clunky and had holes. Maybe the holes are because I needed to read another book with the characters first, but if that is the casel then this book is in the wrong series. What finally killed this book for me was the characters, development really wasn't there and the character seem to have trouble staying in character, it was like listening to bad role play. I kept waiting for the GM to step in and say that's not something your character would do as character decisions just didn't make sense.
Sorry for the three stars on for performance, I like the narrator but even he can't make bad writing sound good.

Back story

This book should have been titled back story! I couldn't wait for it to be over. It is very loosely connected with the first book. All 15 or So new main characters all you here about is there back story with a little bit of action in the book's present time. There are too many species going on at once and it becomes confusing And hard to keep track of who's who. Also you can tell the Author doesn't believe in gender equality because all the human males are dumb or stupid and almost worthless. All the human females are super soldiers and all the aliens are led by females who are also supersoldiers. Guy must be a woke libtard.
