What readers are saying about Velocity Rising:
Great fast moving intro to this series. Wonderful science fiction technology. I can't wait to get the next one to read.
A bit of military, a bunch of aliens, and a whole lot of suspense! Lots of twists and turns to keep it going, Velocity Rising is a must read. Once you pick it up you won't be able to stop reading. Most important, you connect with each of the characters. A must read!
Keep fighting forward. We fight for each other, we fight for family, we fight for humanity. The narrative is so fine and realistic it pulled me in and I was drawn into the story, mind and heart, so engrossed I was, nervous with anticipation to know the outcome, to know where it all led to, at the same time not wanting the book to end. I could feel and live the fear, the terror of the protagonists, a wonderful team effort. Emotions run deep, now not only a question of vengeance. Some mysteries solved but many twists to plot bring out more questions, lots of intriguing turn of events! I hope the next installments come out soon.
