Review: A Fun, Quick Read For Fans Of Action/Sci-Fi
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 11 9, 2013
Although short, this is a fun read that fans of sci-fi action should enjoy. This is a military sci-fi story so expect some really cool weapons (mechs fighting larger mechs!) plus an abundance of acronyms (MOTH, LPO, DA, SK, ATLAS, LIDAR, HS3, HUD, HPT, HQ, UC.) The author has a good imagination and despite the fact that many elements of the story have been done before he really manages to make the story his own. The story has good action and even a bit of humor thrown in.The author has a full length novel set in this same universe coming out next month. Based on this short story I will probably check it out. Either way, this short story does stand on its own and has a pretty good ending. I dislike when author release short stories that are actually just the opening chapters of their books. This is not the case here, and this story can be enjoyed on its own.Story is well edited with no typos found.Recommended for fans of military- or action-based science fiction and/or mechanical exo-skeletons.
