    Fun reading.
    It’s the old standard of an alien race giving us technology so we can beat up some bad guys. The story is engaging as our hero overcomes bureaucratic delays, technical problems, and a skirmish with a scout of the bad guys. We end up with some experimental weapons that we test out in a conflict with the bad guys. End result is good, and ends up with an alliance being created with an alien race against the bad guys. Book stops rather abruptly, but satisfactorily with the belief that a successful campaign will be concluded against the bad guys. The author clearly has some issues with the withdrawal from Afghanistan, and civilian control of the military. He makes his feelings known. He also has some feelings about sexual relations, and describes some interpersonal relationships that are both sour and sweet.Grammatically, the author appears to not know that there is such a word as “whom”. Overall, I found the book to be entertaining.

    Interesting Universe
    Author has created and developed an interesting universe frame. This introductory book gives a broad outline which is readable and enjoyable. Characters are well written and believable. The plot line is very compressed, but gives a story which should allow for rapid development in future books.

    Great book.
    I enjoyed this book. Even though there was a very main character, I liked the ensemble cast. I enjoy this author’s style as well.

    Gripping. Powerful and Foretelling
    D Ward Cornell transports the reader to a time and world near enough and real enough that this book is hard to put down. the characters are relatable and the scenario plausible. Enjoy this terrific book.

    Quite Detailed, Yet Surprisingly Personal.and Entertaining!
    Be prepared for more technical detail than you thought humanly possible! While this adds to its (fictional?) authenticity, there is quite a bit of human personal interest surrounding it to make it an entertaining, drama filled, and intriguing tale!

    You will not want to stop reading this book!
    Excellent start. I plan to read the next book in the series now! Action flows swiftly. Yes, if you have read hundreds of science fiction novels you may find yourself thinking that you’ve read about, at one time or another, nearly every new technology item introduced as you read the novel. But that will not matter. The story flows so well. The characters revealed as the book progresses will capture your support. They will draw you into the world they live in. Your world. Earth!

    good beginning and ending
    The sample grabbed me and I enjoyed the book overall, but found it got bogged down in procurement and political meetings (nothing current or real life oriented). The ending was back on track with the beginning.

    This is a new to me author, I like the story and characters. I like the tech descriptions the goodies and baddies there is perhaps too much detail being picky.
