Loved this series, and I can't WAIT for the next installment. I spent the better part of a week finishing all three books in this series, and I must say: I'm not disappointed in the least. In fact, 2 months later, I still can't wait to find out what happens next.
Very entertaining; a captivating story that's well worth your time.
If you like the Extinction Cycle series by Nicholas Sansbury Smith, you'll love this series as well! (And if you haven't read that series, I also recommend!)
I read quite a bit in this realm of storytelling, and love the books that make me emotionally invested in the characters. This is one of those series' that tells a great story while developing the characters in a gradual way that allows the reader to bond with them individually. It has a great balance of action, with just enough mystery that makes you want more!

Though it was limited on tropes, a lot of the plot was still very predictable.
The charcter work has improved.
There are some very beautifully done segments in this third novel.
Full review coming eventually.

We know Mr Melchiorri can write a great battle scene but a great battle should have a purpose. It should advance the story. In this series we have our valiant little band of heroes fighting overwhelming numbers of maniacal maneating monsters over and over and over and over. Please, get on with the story. Deadman's War is a much better series.

The third book in this series hits all the marks. Fast paced, action heavy, and in-depth character development that makes the story all the more compelling. Now getting into the meat of the story, the machinations are really starting to come into play, and Melchiorri handles this with a deft brush.

Highly recommended.
