About this listen

The Synchronicity War is over, and the insectoid beachheads in our spiral arm have been destroyed, but the aftermath of the war holds some nasty surprises for humanity and its loyal AI allies. Somebody is messing with the human time line. Is it the friendlies, the sogas, the insectoids, or a new race?

This stand-alone novel set in the Synchronicity War universe has new human and AI characters. Find out what happened to Valkyrie, Casanova, Iceman, Gunslinger, and the other Rim AIs. The Retro War spans time and space in a galactic chess game with humans and their AIs as the pawns.

Any additional comments?

This book is supposed to stand alone, but I don't agree with that. Please do yourself a favour and read (or listen to) "The Synchronicity War" series first. And I hope the author will write a successor.

First class military sci-fi

A great continuation to the series. I hope he writes another. And please keep using the same narrator because he is the best.

Love this addition to the series

When time travel is limited, it's an interesting twist on a story. The first few books in this series explored that well. But when time travel gains power or becomes nearly unlimited, it becomes a weak, tired trope that destroys a story and makes it unbelievable unless you expend effort to "suspend disbelief". Only the most cursory of thinking about a scenario allows you to realize that you can can plant a nearly infinite number of traps for an opponent or his ancestors, given the ability to constantly flit back in time without limits.

That said, this series does have a lot of compelling story elements and good characters and narrative.

Time travel gets tiring
