The men of the Us
destroyer Walker continue their battle against the Grik on an alternate earth.
It’s D-Day as a massive assault to liberate parts of India and rescue the
stranded Allied American-Lemurian forces finally falls into place. I love how
D-Day fell on 6th of June, 1944 and yet nobody on this earth knew
because they’ve been stranded from our world for over a year.
Some lingering mysteries are finally answered
and solved while a few more pop up in their place. I think that the series is about due to come
to an end. Don’t get me wrong, I love this book and while it took me a very
long time to complete it, which was because it’s the last book in the series
thus far. So I devoured about 30 pages at a time and then savored the book by
putting it away for a raining day.
However, this is like book 8 and I’ve read
well over 10,000 pages about the war against the Grik. I would hate for this
series to were out its welcome. I don’t think with the scope of a war in both
Asia and the Americas that this series could be completed in one 340 page
volume such as this one. But I think the Destroyermen should be seeing peace
within at least 3 more books and no more than 5!
I love the very technical approach Anderson
has to ever little weapon and massive ship. It makes me feel like I am right
there alongside the Destroyermen. The last 50 pages were action packed and I
hated having to put the book down for any interruption of any means.
I can’t wait for the next
volume! Write faster, Mr. Anderson! (PS, I have to wait 8 more months till the
next book! Please, say it ain’t so!!!)
Worth Consuming
Rating 10 out of 10 stars.
