As someone who thoroughly enjoyed the first two books in the series, especially the first, i found this a big let down, in fact, after reading what seemed like 200 pages on the cultural differences between South American society and that of The United States, I almost put the book down. There was very little of the action that it seemed to promise.
I stopped reading 'The Legacy of Aldenata' series, because i got bored, i fear that i may think twice about purchasing the next in the 'Troy Rising series' for the same reason.

Apart from some Afghan Space Marines, a token British Colonel, some Coptic Christian Riveters, ALL AMERICA rules apply. We are told that the "COALITION" Powers are paying VAST SUMS FROM THEIR BUDGETS to help defend themselves and the Earth. Now, it seems, for NO PARTICULARLY RATIONAL OR LOGICAL REASON, the South American countries whose contribution has been very limited, are queue jumped to have their own Battlestation. Typical Yanl behaviour. A disappointing trend in this series.

utterly corking third instalment in Mr Ringo's series "Troy Rising", Centred mainly around a Naval Rating "Comet" Parker. it delivers on the promise of the first two novels.
Reads like a Classic Heinlein, splashed with Trade Mark Ringo action. It does remind me of "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress" in some respects, mostly in the respect that it was highly enjoyable.

This is the latest continuation of John Ringo's 'Troy Rising' series. A excellent read and the series is running at a fast pace. Read more

Guilty pleasure
I should loathe John Ringo's books, militaristic, Jingoistic, and sometimes peppered with pretty crudely drawn cultural stereotypes; but, he writes with such panache and humour... Read more
