Publisher's summary

A starship lost. A creator found. A frantic race to save them both.

For Colonel Mitchell "Ares" Williams, there is no giving up. There is no going back. The Goliath may have fallen into enemy hands, but the war must go on.

After all, he and the Riggers have what they need to locate the Creator, the man responsible for the alien threat and the key to unraveling their unstoppable attack. All they have to do is get to him before the Tetron do.

It's no easy task, but nothing about the war has ever been easy, and the Riggers still have a few tricks left up their sleeves.

keeping the story flowing and exciting

Another awesome story continues. I don't know how Forbes comes up with these stories. just when you think it is over another plot line appears and off you go. The only bad thing is that at this time no more audio books are available in the series. Come on!!

Excellent continuation! Yay books?

Finished this rather quickly. I could not stop listening to this book. Twists and turns. Surprise after surprise. Short chapters kept the action going. Really enjoyed the character interaction. Performance was spot on.
Starting book five now. You want to continue the story!

Entertaining, not gripping

A good continuation, but not enough surprises to keep the story as fresh as the first three. Still, good enough to make me start book 5.

Cathy's Story

While I'm still in remorse over Millie's death*, my interest in saga was re-invigorated with the new focus on the 12 year old Cathy (a half-human, half Tetron construct.) I won't go into detail about her exploits or her circumstances but suffice it to say, they are entertaining as they further move the story along the path of breaking the, seemingly, eternal repetition of human versus Tetron timelines.

Even though the novel is still entertaining, the whole process is becoming a bit too repetitive and while I'm looking forward to book 5, I'm hoping that it will finally be the conclusion to this saga.

* Note: I really should have seen this coming after she handed her command over to Mitch.

that was great

I'm an avid space battle sci fi fan. These books are quite good in my opinion. Outside of the norm. New ideas.
