5By fhhdhkxrtyooncxzvjdIt’s a good book what more can I sayWay too boring
2By Dalton RichtmeyerMake it more interesting. I read the first 50 pages and I was bored out of my mind. I would rather do nothingNice series

5By PuppyAliWow!!!!! 2nd book you are being bought!!Excellent plot and characters
5By gholland55Mike Smith fully develops the key characters and writes a tense storyline with a dramatic ending. A great read!!Wonderfull!
5By Stephen MaturinWell, what can you say about a book that tells a story so strong and subtle at the same time, that you find yourself sweating, running for cover, laughing or crying without consciously knowing it? Smith is a superb author that gives it all to fulfill your expectations and more. Exactly just like Jon did.Meh
1By Sickens jackThe story is pretty good, but I know 10th graders with better grammar. Please, please, please get a better proofreader. It detracts from the story itself when your grammar is consistently bad. It took me out of the story multiple times when I noticed your grammar mistakes.The Last Praetorian
5By Scott11024Awesome book. Couldn’t wait to read the next page. Definitely one you can’t put down.Loved, it but wanted a little less of what others wanted more of
4By The Best Thief everSpace tactics, politics, space ships, and even what happens to humanity post-Earth, this is an amazing book. But I disliked two things: Too much of the romance. I know only like 40 total pages in a 435 pg book is too little for some, but for me it just distracted from the, in my opinion, quality content.Wow
5By Mb 5556Great book, exciting story line and great characters in this book .
