In the first book, Mr Gibbs had the minot flaw of cut and pasting exact technical details of missile launches each time. Not an unusual problem for military fiction. In this second book, the plot moves smoothly with just the information necessary for us to share the moment.
As to the characters and the plot, just like the first book, he had me crying and wiping my eyes. He has made death and loss deeply real, and the pain of heroic action clearly visible. His use of faith, in all its complexity as the anchor it often is in life and death situations, is both real and respectful. I personally, as a United Methodist pastor, want to step in and help those soldiers and even rewrite one of the prayers. This series has moved me so much that I can feel the needs of the people involved.
I believe you will find this series deeply rewarding. You may recognize much of history and World War II peaking through the backstory, but all that does is give it a stronger grounding in human experience.
I recommend this series. Blessings all Rev Michael Burgess

From the Publisher
Protracted war is inevitable.
Six weeks ago, Lieutenant Justin Spencer was just another reservist in the Coalition Defense Force. Becoming a lifer wasn’t in the cards—until the League of Sol brutally attacked the Terran Coalition. With several pivotal battles now under his belt, friends and strangers alike call Justin a hero. But he finds the accolades difficult to swallow when the night only intensifies images from his first taste of combat.
Then he’s faced with an active duty extension.
The League is hitting supply convoys on their long journeys between the mining colonies. Without the rare minerals, Coalition shipyards can’t produce the needed firepower to fight off losses sustained from the enemy’s overwhelming forces.
When the CSV Zvika Greengold is tapped for a black ops action, Justin volunteers to pilot a captured enemy aircraft on what he discovers too late is a suicide mission. For any chance of survival, he’ll need to rely on more than sheer skill or dumb luck.
He’ll need a miracle.
Three more action-packed series are set in the Terran Diaspora Universe:

Because a man's greatest foe lies within.

But what they uncover is more horrifying than anyone ever anticipated.
