Publisher's summary

Everything in war is very simple, but the simplest thing is difficult.

Admiral Jack Romanoff and his crew have fought the invaders to a standstill, and have plans to strike them even harder, but that won’t be easy. The Novarites know about them and will be ready, the Locusts are too strong to beat in a head-on fight, and the Poseidon Group has evaded them.

War is the realm of uncertainty.

A new enemy might be on the horizon, but Jack couldn’t afford to be distracted at a critical juncture like this. Everyone’s plans were shrouded in the fog of war, and no one knew what to expect in the cauldron of battle. Even so, his ship would fight. Humanity demanded no less than victory.

Courage, above all things, is the first quality of a warrior.

Multiple engrossing threads

I enjoyed hearing the bad guys getting their come upping’s, in spades, by the seeming under dog. There were clever twists and turns to the plot. The main characters were well developed and likable.
I highly recommend starting with book one in the series. I don’t think you will be disappointed.

Bad, Inexplicable Episode In A Good Series

I'm a fan of JN Chaney, I've enjoyed a number of his series before this one. I've been enjoying the Last Hunter series, but this story seems rushed and poorly thought out to me, and because of this it also reveals how shaky the foundation of the story is.

The main problem with it, is that it's just bad storytelling. Why?

1. In a good story the protagonists have to be challenged. They have to have big ups and big downs. This story had no downs at all. It was like Christmas every day in "Last Hunter" headquarters. Everything they tried worked out, and then they were unexpectedly showered with gifts as well. Huh? How is that even a *story* guys??? Seriously!

2. The protagonist (aka "Main Character") has subtly changed. All Jack now does is ask his subordinates what they should do, make dumb suggestions which they tell him is dumb, and then he agrees. The story is now, for better or worse, about Lisa, Derrik, and Amanda.

3. The conflict is getting more and more ludicrous. The scary, evil, secret organization had 100 years to perfect the alien tech that they discovered, and in 100 years they seemed to accomplish almost nothing. But our protagonists take the same tech, and in hours/days get it not only working, but also innovate and improve on it. *slaps forehead* aye aye aye

4. The Locusts and Novarites come to invade the Federation 100 years after being defeated, but they also don't seem to have innovated much, and they are confounded by a single 100 year old ship.

And more.

I'm sticking with this series at least for one more book, mainly because despite the stupidity of the story, and the bad storytelling, I am somewhat hooked on the main characters. But if the next one isn't a lot better, that will be the last one for me.
