Review: Starts well then fades out
Rating: 2 out of 5

A novel of alien invasion of a future human commonwealth of worlds. The book starts with satisfying action on some of the invaded worlds. About 1/3 of the way in, it switches to a detailed description of the training regime of a group of military recruits. This endless and dull description goes on and on - I kept waiting for something to happen but it carried on like that until the book just ended with nothing resolved. It left me with no desire to read the sequel.
