Críticas

"Fans of space opera who have been eagerly awaiting this sequel to Weber and White's In Death Ground won't be disappointed, to put it mildly . . . all the verisimilitude of a technothriller . . . characterizations are strong and vivid . . . leaving the reader both exhilarated and enriched." "Swift action and conflict mark this alien/human drama." ." . . this novel and its predecessors more than fill the bill in the military SF subgenre." "Weber and White...[leave] the reader both exhilarated and enriched."
