This felt naive and superficial.

I think I'm too long in the tooth for these generic tropes.

I thought that I was going to get something different, but I didn’t, I should have paid closer attention to the blurb, my bad. I suppose it was the premise that drew me in, more fool me, I should have known better, at my age.

The “just in time,” scenarios, I can’t get the shields up captain, get me those weapons back online now, phew that was close; I'm sure these phrases have been exploited to the hilt, by many an author, over the years. So, I'm afraid to report, sadly nothing new here. Whether the next book is any better I'll have to see, now at the moment, it’s a 50/50 toss-up.

Did not finish.

The characters are paper thin, the plot holes are enormous and the language is trite and often flawed. There was a voice in my head groaning and repeatedly saying, "that's just stupid."

There are so many books in this series that I suspect it gets better. I don't have the patience to find out though.

Fun book to read but it doesn't have a lot of original plots or characters to hold much interest
