I waited several extra months for this one, we pass the book around work. All of the folks complaining about John splitting the 3rd book SHUT UP. The events that caused him to alter his trilogy are not his fault.He did an outstanding job of continuing the story, and the good news is there will be more. Even when bub-bun is in the rear the pace keeps up. All this time these stories were just to wet our appetite for more. I can't wait! Hope there is more destruction for evil alien races. Semper Fi !
