I am a fan of Mr. Lee's previous kindle books in the Sustained Earth series. I was actually a little bummed out that he wasn't continuing that series and writing this instead... but he did not disappoint.As a self proclaimed nerd growing up, I'd say this brings together my Dungeons and Dragons days, my military service, life on a Harley, and my agnostic views on life all in one book. There are a lot of specifics in science and weapons that are a bit too much at times and if I could, I'd give the book a 4.5 over all. At about 75% through, the book really changed pace and slowed down and moved away from a lot of what was happening in the first part of the story. This slow down seemed to be actually a build up for a curve ball of an ending.The level of imagination in this story is incredible. The research on religion, science, and technical detail was remarkable. As always with a story from Mr. Lee I am left wanting more and can't wait for his next book.
