Another great installment. The depth & interactions of the characters is getting better with each book.

Can't wait for the next book.

This is another winner from LaLonde. I'm just sorry i got into the series as soon as I did. Had I waited the entire series might have been finished and I wouldn't have to wait for the next installment.

I agree with Mr. Caplan i.e. the first 40 or so pages start rather slowly, but soon after the action picks up and there's no stopping!

This is the continuation of an excellent story with believable characters.

I'm giving this book 4*'s because Smashwords doesn't have an extra 1/2. It's 4.5 / 5 for me.

Like most Spinward Fringe fans I've been waiting for this book for a while.

I personally found the first bit of the book, say the first 40 or so pages to develop slowly. Once the action started though, this was all Spinward Fringe.

I thought some newer characters were better defined, with a lot of questions remaining about what will happen in the future.

Towards the end of the book I did not want to put it down. Where I found the first 20 pages drawn on, the last 40 were nailbiting, with an ending that I did not forsee.

Waiting patiently now for Broadcast 7.

Yet another great read from Randolph. Thoroughly enjoyed this book, very hard to put down! The story flows well and the series as a whole is awesome. Cannot wait for the next installment now!

Well, I have been anxiously waiting for this book for almost a year. I don't know where to start. One moment I was reading the book and the next moment it was over. That's how good the story was. I was so caught up with characters, I lost track of time. I have to say that this book is my favorite of the entire series. The story just flows and before you know it, it's over. Now I have to wait for another year.

What I like about the authors writing style is how he gives us the perspective of each individual characters thoughts and feelings. Ayan, the engineer, is still my favorite (so is the crazy fighter pilot). You get to spend time with them and develop a bond with them. Being a fan of space operas, it's normally the same hero defeats entire fleets or the hero is some super soldier who defeats whole armies on his own. Don't misunderstand me, they are entertaining but basically I read them to pass the time. With his books, I look forward to the story and how the characters will develop both individually and as a group.
