This was a book I was excited to read mainly because of the sci-fi/military/thriller aspect. However, while the idea for this book was great, the execution of it didn't pan out as well as I thought it could have. The writing was beyond what I expected, and it was action-packed to the brim. But where I felt like there was something missing, I also felt like there was too much crammed into the book at the same time. In parts, I just felt lost and had to either put the book down for a bit, or go back and re-read a paragraph over and over again to make sure I hadn't forgotten something along the way. I did understand most of the military jargon, and I expect most other readers will too, but it does almost get in the way to the point where you just want to skip over whatever they are saying. But overall, I can't say I didn't enjoy the book. It was exciting and thrilling and even sad. I came to really like and appreciate some of the characters, and honestly, I would read more of what's to come after this.… (más)
