About this eBook
Taylor Anderson’s enthralling New York Times bestselling series of alternate history continues as game-changing revelations upend the Grand Alliance in a potentially cataclysmic war.
Ever since the USS Walker came from another world war to defy the terrifying Grik and diabolical Dominion, Matt Reddy and his crew have given their all to protect the oppressed Lemurians. But with the Walker in desperate need of repairs just as the Grik’s First General is poised to strike, Reddy is desperate.
With more enemies than ever before arrayed against them, the crew of the Walker needs new allies. That means combing the lethal wilds of Madagascar to find the Lemurians’ fabled ancestors, as well as the enigmatic dwellers east of the Pass of Fire. But what Reddy’s crew unearths may be more than they can handle—discoveries so shattering they could tilt the balance of the war in either direction.
But Reddy’s greatest adversary is from his past: a madman named Kurokawa whose single-minded mission of revenge will shake the Alliance to its core and raise the stakes to the most personal and terrifying levels Reddy has ever faced.

Held my attention and had plenty of action. The end was a bit of a letdown with no real payoff and a lot of loose ends that the next book will have to tie up. The other books in the series did a better job of being self contained with their plot arcs. It has an empire strikes back feeling in that a lot of bad things happened to the main characters with no clear solution and the audience forced to wait for a resolution.

Better read than the previous in the series. Held my attention, but like the others, wish each book told more of the story timeline versus being chopped up into many smaller books.

I've been reading Anderson's novels now since I decided to sit down in a Barnes and Noble years ago. I ended up buying Into the Storm, and haven't looked back since. Taylor Anderson's writing style is rich, yet personable, the exact type of style you'd want if you were listening to a tale. Also, Anderson knows how to weave not just one plot, but multiple. Enjoy
