When I first found this book in my searches I was surprised to see such a wide range of star ratings, its had the followingFive Star - 6Four Star - 8Three Star - 3Two Star - 5One Star - 6After reading the one and two star reviews I almost ALMOST didn't read the sample...Iam glad I did.I really enjoyed it, I wanted to finish it as opposed to finishing it and thinking that was a good book, that makes it a 4 star for me rather than a three star.To address some of the points raised in the low reviews, I don't remember that many typos just the one spring to mind when Austria was written when it quite clearly should have been Australia. I found the characters interesting and the dialog between them was very good yes there could have been more emotional character development but this did NOT have a negative effect on the story.I found the story an interesting take on the old alien invasion story and well the ending with the alien commander was hilarious. To satisfy me as a five star I would have included more of the political scene in the story and a bit more on the after effects of the Imperials on the local population and perhaps as some others have mentioned left it open at the end with perhaps the imperials attempting to contact their empire in some way (ship or message).I really enjoyed it, some reviewers hated it, the split of reviews means I would recommend you do what I did, read the sample in full. If you enjoyed the sample like I did then buy the book.Phil
