About this listen

Morgan Mars is doing everything he can to protect humanity from alien invasion.

But even his new organization, The First Line of Defence, isn’t enough to save what’s already lost. Sectors are collapsing like dominoes as the aftermath of the 20th Cycle invasion leaves everyone trapped in the falling Sectors. No one knows what to do. No one, that is, except Nicholas Thistlebush. He has a plan to save Sector 6. The only question is, what will it cost him?

Question on existence, done in a fun Sci/fi way.

While a departure from book 1, it is a great, fun alternative perspective of the Great Game.

Great book two

I think this is as a great book two in this series and I cannot wait for another. I enjoy the rejuvenating story in this one

Not what I expected

It's not very similar to the other books by Benjamin Kerei. It doesn't even feel like it's in the same universe as the first book and only has brief appearances by Morgan. I can see how this might have been a chance for the author to play with different concepts, including some psychological trauma, but it really didn't fit well with the first book.

There were some interesting developments, but since they were with Morgan and weren't the focus, they feel brushed over.

Wished Simple Mike killed Nicholas

Story was entertaining but I hated Nicholas. The worst kind of person. A selfish coward he does however grow as a character at the end of the book.

Glad I stayed

I was really upset when the pov changed, thankfully it isn't permanent and it switches between both. The main character from the last one is in about 20% of the book witch kinda sucks but the new character's story is very interesting and I found myself looking forward to his part of the story just as much as the original mc. I hope the author keeps up with this series because I'm liking where it's going and what I've read so far.

Another great story by this author

I really enjoyed this. It was interesting, surprising, and added a second main character that I actually cared about. I look forward to the third book in the series.

I like the aspect of humanity in the book.

It was very jarring to see a new character pop up, gain a bunch of power, and become the book's main character. Overall, it was still a good book, but it was just very jarring. I understand the need to give humanity a foothold in the galaxy that the author is making. I wish the book focused more on Morgan Mars, but I do like Nicholas Thistlebush. From my subjective point of view, it was kind of an Ex Machina. From the point of view of the first book, with humans losing sectors left and right, it seems that there was no challenge with the new character being introduced.
Again, it is still a good book.

boring

I really love the first book in the series and I was expecting more of the first book but this one falls a different characte That's power is too high to comprehend in the author doesn't convey how powerful he is are at least doesn't know how to write a character of that powerful. And in doing so you lost the heart of the story he lost the fun of the story and pretty much just went away from what made everything great about the first book The story's not even good until he goes back to the main character of the last book for short periods of time but you spend so much time with the new character that it just a slog to get through I normally love this author's works but this one just wasn't it
