This sounds like such a fun read. I'm a huge fan of science fiction and I love that the battle scenes are written so intensely and thoroughly. Great review!

I'm not much for sci-fi books, but I'm definitely up for an underdog story!

Sounds like a Good SciFi with aliens and Superior Human Beings for those who like that Genre. Thanks for the warning about them being able to Get out of everything since some might not like that. Great Review & Thanks for sharing.

Great review. I am not for epic wars and characters with super powers so, probably, this book is not for me. However, I like the fact that the humans protect the alien under dogs. Its a breath of fresh air from the usual stories of aluen invasion.

I think there are so many sci-fi alien and human encounter stories out there. But your review makes this one sounds special. Thanks for the great review!

Yeah, a little of a human's flaws can go a long way with character building. That being said, this book does sound pretty amazing. Looking forward to checking out the first ten pages to see what I think. Thanks for your review!

Thanks for the review. It sounds like it would be great for a sci-fi lover. I have found in most sci-fi books the underdog usually does end up with some awesome powers or something that will save the day, no matter the situation.

Humanity meets aliens for the first time? Humanity becomes the protector of alien underdogs? Cool! There's a lot of elements of this book that I actually like. Thank you for the honest review!

The whole sci-fi with aliens and battles isn't my type of book to read, even though I enjoy an occasional movie on that theme. Overall, this sounds like a well-written book, though - worthy of at least a look!

Humans first contact with aliens and they were thrown as protector for alien underdogs. This sounds interesting to read. Thank you for this great review.
