Summary: The most in-depth, captivating sci-fi story EVER!
Comment: This captivating book series is the most fascinating I have ever read. The elements of mystery and fascination are just overwhelming! If you remotely have an interest in science fiction, you need to read this series and enjoy each well crafted book. Anyway, where is BOOK 5???

Rating: 5
Summary: This unfinished series is one of the finest series I've read
Comment: This book represents the 4th (and possibly the last, since I can't seem to find any information about when or if Mr. Gerrold plans on releasing future volumes in this series) installment in his acclaimed "War vs. the Chtorr" series. As I write this, it has been some years since I read this novel, but I can say that it is definitely one of the premiere science fiction series that I have yet encountered. Dealing with a full-scale ecological invasion of Earth, Mr. Gerrold deals in a very convincing way with the concept of an entire ecosystem invading our own. This ranges all the way from the microbial level, to huge purple worms with razor teeth that seem to have quite a taste for humanity. Over the course of the series, as you watch Earth's military and scientific branches struggle to understand and defend the entire planet (and constantly losing ground, I might add), you are swept into the desparate plight of the Earth's dwindling population. This is one book that deftly mixes scientific inquiry with action and suspense. At the first of this book, as a group of soldiers invade a subterranean worm colony, I was reminded of similar scenes in the movie Aliens. This book definitely has something for everyone who appreciates good science fiction. A compelling story line, great action, an overriding mystery regarding what/who is actually behind the invasion of Earth, and memorable characters. It's basically Cyberpunk meets Alien and War of the Worlds all wrapped up in one. Read it. You'll enjoy it.

Rating: 4
Summary: Leave them wanting more, I guess
Comment: This series is excellent. I love them and have reread the books many times. However, I will not put forth the effort to reread them anymore. We are coming up on one decade since the last book and I've lost faith that there will be any closure on the storyline. If you start reading these books, you will love them. Just don't be upset that when the author dies at the age of 107 and the next book still hasn't been published.
