A good read, the plot is interesting and I enjoy Wayne as a character. The prose is a little rough, we jump through time and locations with little notice, and some things that seem important are skipped through in a page, while some small details are drawn out. 

The ending is particularly jarring. I understand the desired cliff hanger, but feel an additional chapter would help flesh things out. 


I'll definitely continue reading as I enjoy the military/sci-fi aspect, but wouldn't consider this a genre defining work. A guilty pleasure to pass the time in the airport.
