Product Description
Product Description
The second entry in the bestselling Troy Rising saga and follow-up to Live Free or Die from multiple New York Times and USA Today bestseller John Ringo! When the orbital gates first materialized in the outer solar system, all seemed well. And, lo, peaceful traders made first contact - so whatever came next couldn''t be so bad, could it? Yeah, it could. Very bad. Now humans have battled back from a Trojan-horse-like conquest by a tyrannical alien species to become a force to be reckoned with in the galaxy. On a crash-building course, we''ve built a near-impregnable battlestation of Deathstar proportions to prove it. But the enemy is remorseless and to survive we must take the fight to our attackers - and prevail! Unfortunately, the bones and burnt hulks of those who have tried litter the star-ways. But these galactic imperialists have never contended with humans, a foe who is their match in sheer ferocity and desire to win.

If you like John Ringo's style and enjoy a good, old-fashioned yarn then this is an excellent read. I wouldn't have liked to have read it without having read its precursor ("Live or Die Free") though.
However, good literature it ain't and so however much I enjoyed it I'll only give it 4 as 5 is reserved for the best.

Follows the first book and suffers from too much padding. However, the story line does keep you reading, but with the thought that some parts could well do with cutting.

Citadel really puts flesh on the bones that the first book showed us. We see a larger cast of characters, so not every magnificent act of audaciousness is performed by Tyler Vernon. We see the mistakes that are made, and the determination to succeed that the characters enshrine.
A very good installment in this new sci-fi epic - there's just one question. When do we build a 'Troy' of our very own?
