Interpretation Conducive To Books Legend of the Sword (In Her Name: The Last War #2)
The real rating of this book is 3.5 stars rather than four stars. The book should be focused on Tesh-Dar, and indeed the stories about Kreelans are wonderful, and much better than their humans counterparts. The battles scenes were really well done. The characters are very well developed (and this is true for all the other books in the series). It is impossible not to like some of the Kreelans, and not to hate some of the humans; there are not good guys and bad guys, every character has his own qualities and flaws. However, I found the "cold war" from Saint Petersburg planet described in too many details, and I didn't care about it. From my point of view, this part should be cut in half (and have more about Kreelans and Kreelan - humans interaction). And again, as in “First Contact” the book has too many references to present and it has a too US centric view. To conclude, the whole "In Her Name" series is a great read, one of the best sci-fi I've read.Rating Based On Books Legend of the Sword (In Her Name: The Last War #2)

Legend of the Sword by Michael R. Hicks is Book 2 of the Last War Trilogy and Book 5 of the In Her Name series. I bought this book because I enjoyed the series. Unfortunately, I did not find this book on par with the others. The first five chapters (22%) are mostly backfilloften a necessity in a series, but not to this extent.The story, once it started, was quick-paced and action-filled, though I found some of the solutions to problems just too convenient and improbable.The epilogue felt as ifA gave up on this entire series (despite having bought all of the books in advance) after the invisible dinosaur attack about 28% through. What utter rubbish. The first book was interesting, but this is not for me. If I could donate the series to someone else, I would. Don't even want this in my library.
I'm really enjoying this series. I like both the human side and the bad guys. I'm hoping the author has a decent plan on where he is taking this as it seems like it could be possible to go off the rails. On to book three.
Just as good as the first. I powdered though this & got book 3
Sci-fiAnother great book in the trilogy, I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. I can't wait to see how it all ends.
A masterpieceI have read the entire series through once already and am pleased to say that upon starting again I am even more impressed with Mr. Hicks command with not just words but with the ability to weave worlds. I have never read anything comparable to the intricacy, majesty, fluidity, totality, and, yes, magic, in his more than ease in taking you on a wild and joyous ride into other worlds. Gratitude comes to mind, for this series is a once in a lifetime read. I would give it "fifty" stars
Invasion of Human Space ContinuesThe battle between humans and the aliens continues but in an unexpected manner. Not only the unusual nature on the aliens but the occasional stupidity of humankind are on full display. Hicks fields his characters effectively but this Volume lacks the depth and heart of the first. I will continue to read the next, Book 3, and hope for greater things.
