5.0 out of 5 stars
Victory or Death!, December 16, 2011
This review is from: Conquest (Star Force Series) (Kindle Edition)
In this hard hitting installment, Riggs has his back against the wall when the Mechanoids return to earth with a vengence. A new series of tricks hidden up their mechanical sleeves, including a massive new warship, rocks Star Force back on its heels. Assassins, Mechanoids, Marvin, a fractious Admiral Crow with his own agenda and a host of other problems including earth governments, his upgraded girlfriend and a reluctant Fleet, dog Riggs' heels every step of the way as he attempts to save the planet earth from another attempt to enslave or annihilate humanity. To my mind most similar to Extinction, the second book of this series, Conquest doesn't let up for a minute. Colonel Riggs is unwilling to give an inch when the Mechanoids are only interested in taking a mile and attacking with overwhelming force. I recommend this book as another sterling addition to the Star Force Universe. The Deposed King

Riggs is back! Robots beware!!!!!!!!!!, January 8, 2012
This review is from: Conquest (Star Force Series) (Kindle Edition)
WARNING: The SATR FORCE SERIES is very ADDICTIVE. Conquest is the best book in the Star Force Series, but if you have not started the series... I advise you to get them all, start reading and then hang on. I'm a 55 Y/O kid and just love fast paced Military Sci-Fy with lots of aliens, sexy women, powered battle suits and thousands of bad-ass marines wearing them. This series has it all. I can't wait for the next book to come out... Battlestation. It should be awsome! Mr. Larson spins a great story and the series just keeps getting better and better! Now... Stop reading this review and go buy the books!!! Later... Bear

Maybe the best of the series...., January 21, 2012
This review is from: Conquest (Star Force Series) (Kindle Edition)
My stubborn mind continuously reminds me that eventually Mr. Larson will fall short with his next book in this series, and once again it was disappointed. Even In some of the best book series I find myself asking, "Seriously?? This things still going??", but the Star Force series hasn't found that point yet and I'm starting to believe it never will. Larson finds a way to mix the perfect amount of closure and enticement for the possibility or probability of another book in the series and I just can't wait for the next one. If you've made it this far in the series I don't have to tell you about how well written and engaging these works are from page to page, full of excitement and development. I think what sets him apart for me is his ability to make me so excited to see what happens next but not by the standard methods of most page-turning authors that never let you "get the carrot" at the end of a chapter, always keeping it just out of reach, but by letting you get a bite or two of the carrot and then you finish it off, only to show you that just ahead is another carrot, even better than the first, followed by a cake, and an ice cream shop.... Well you get the picture. I don't want to pit this book against others in the series and crown a winner or loser because they're all so surprisingly amazing one after another, but I guess somebody always has to win just as somebody always has to lose, so Conquest gets the title. Please continue doing these wonderful things Mr. Larson and I gratefully await your next work in the series, and Thanks.
