Lines of Departure

I loved this book and the story as it was presented. As part two of the story, it skips a little bit forward in time and presents a bit more backstory on our characters... and then throws them into impossible situations. And just when you think all hope is lost, the action increases and the book becomes a page-turner that I cannot put down. The last parts of this book climax in a way that sets up the next book to be even bigger. This has been one of the best military-style sci-fi books I've read and would be on par with TV shows like Battlestar Galactica and The Expanse if it was put into film. Worth the time to read!
