Andy Straka's new series is off to a running start but like a trailer for a film, Shadow of Drones only teases, it doesn't fulfill. Lots of implausible antics crammed into a small space.The book quickly introduces the characters and then everyone is off shooting at each other. I prefer more plot with my guns. The book is billed as SF but we haven't seen that yet although Mr. Straka may be gearing up to reveal an extraterrestrial origin for the really high-tech drones. Not sure why we need that. And Andy, check your anatomy, there isn't an important vein in the hip.I received this book through NetGalley.com.
