I did enjoy this book even though I gave it 3 stars. It was a bit slow to get started and seemed to push myself through the first 1/3 of it. After that it picks up a bit and was more enjoyable to read but isn't groundbreaking in any way. It was quite inexpensive online and worth checking out.

No tedious backstory, no lengthy discourses on quantum mechanics - Larson launches you straight into his universe and lays it on thick and fast. The pacing is great, and the story is captivating and is sure to please all sci-fi / space warfare / aliens type buffs (think of a cross between starcraft, aliens, warhammer 40k).

My only gripe is that it is over quickly and leaves you wanting for more! There is so much potential to expand upon - I hope Larson follows up with a sequel.

As a sequel, I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the story woven by Larson. As a story in its own right, I'm not sure if it is strong enough to stand alone by itself. Read in context as a sequel though, it builds on a existing universe and gives enough to quench the thirst of die-hard fans. Again, the aliens were hideous and brutal, with a distinct conniving nature thrown in this time round. The heroes were portrayed satisfyingly and richly, struggling against enemies within and without.

That said, I found that the book's namesake - Mechs - were given a backseat role in this book which left me a bit disappointed. Additionally, I thought the demise of the alien antagonist was a little anti-climatic and felt a little rushed. The story also lacked the intensity of the first book, although that probably indicates the caliber of the first with which it is undoubtedly being compared to.… (más)

An interesting story, an interesting blend of sci-fi, military action, and thriller, but I had to give up on it. I simply couldn't sustain my "willing suspension of disbelief." Sure, the main character is superhuman, capable of marvels we are not. But, for example, how do you tinker with a sophisticated piece of electronics when the nearest tools are dozens of miles away, across a large expanse of water?
