Way too much talking and planning and arguing and so on. Not enough combat. I got really really bored and will not continue the series
Originale : On continue sur notre bonne lancée et ce troisième tome ne déçoit pas. Encore une fois, l'auteur nous livre des aspects différents d'une guerre et cette portion de l'histoire d'Andrew est riche en rebondissements. On ne veut pas lâcher le livre avant d'avoir lu la suite et le 4° tome va suivre dans la foulée.
Relecture : j'aime toujours autant cette série de livres. Cette fois, la très grande majorité de l'action se passe dans l'espace ce qui offre une perspective encore différente par rapport aux précédents tomes.
---------------
Original: We continue on our good momentum and this third volume does not disappoint. Once again, the author gives us different aspects of a war and this portion of Andrew's story is rich in twists and turns. We don't want to put the book down before having read the rest and the 4th volume will follow immediately.
Rereading: I still love this series of books. This time, the vast majority of the action takes place in space, which offers an even different perspective compared to previous volumes.
Executive Summary: What was a good series took a major step towards great with this book. Each book seems to be an improvement over the last, and this one was even more of an improvement over book 2 than book 2 was over the first one. If you like Military Sci-Fi (or maybe even just space opera) give this series a look.
Audiobook: Luke Daniels does another excellent job as always. I always enjoy him as a narrator and this one was no different. He definitely adds that extra something that makes audio a great choice for this one.
Full Review
The first two books of this series were enjoyable, but this book seemed to take it to another level. This book is an improvement both in terms of the story and the writing.
I was initially pretty lukewarm towards Andrew, but his character continues to grow with each book. I loved the addition of Dmitri to the cast, and I hope we'll see him in future books. I'd have liked more Sergeant Fallon than we got, but there is always the next book. Overall I've come to really enjoy all of the recurring characters in this series.
This book took several unexpected turns and the story is quite different from what I was thought it would. I don't consider that a bad thing, as it's often good to be surprised, but I guess it means this series will be longer than I'd have thought.
As long as Mr. Kloos has a plan for where everything will end up, I'm on board for however many books he wants. He seems to have ramped this up from a fairly simple Military Sci-Fi story to a more in depth Space Opera. I'm looking forward to seeing how things go in the next book.
The continuation of the Frontlines saga. In this 3rd installment, the Lankies start off by attacking the colony on New Svalbard and and up attacking Mars. Of course, the main protagonist, Andrew Grayson, finds himself right in the middle of the conflict.
This series is available for free download and is also free on Kindle unlimited with audiobook versions which are extremely well done. Highly recommended if you like military-tinged Science Fiction. Good stuff.
I can't remember exactly why I didn't like this quite as much as the others. I think it was because it didn't have enough Halley.
