I enjoyed this series
bit like the Skylark series , man finds item and boot straps his way to god hood.
Would love to know if Marvin is the paranoid android as he seems to be written that way. i just hope he does not become a "baddy" as he is at the moment he is riggs "loyal" but nieve "puppy" , let hope he becomes an attack dog.
The hero seems a bit dim .. but i suppose hes busy.. Hidden bases on the island ,...... when he has a whole solar system to hide in.... has he not heard of von newman .....more

In Norwegian only, sorry..
Fjerde boka i Star Force serien er nå lest. Et lite steg ned fra bok nr. tre, så det passer at forfatteren ikke har ferdigstilt bok fem. Tror jeg trenger en liten pause og avveksling fra serien...
Litt om boka
"Conquest" er neste kapittel i stjernekrigen mellom Jorden og andre levende vesener i universet mot Makroene, maskinene. I denne fjerde boka har Riggs frigjort Jorden fra Makroenes klør, men til hvilken pris? Makroene stoler ikke lenger på ham og har bestemt seg for...more

Wow! Take a breather, will ya! Good night! Colonel Riggs and his Star Force Marines are fighting almost every hour of every day. They go from one place to another carried by the MACROS and they have to fight whomever they meet. This time they're fighting the "goat people" or aliens that look like Centaurs. These Centaurs are highly intelligent and territorial. They don't want their space invaded and they aren't willing to die just because the Earth Marines are having a bad time.

Ok, I have to confess there are things that could be faulted about this series. In this particular book, I noticed typos and sentences with the wrong words. Not much, but it altered the flow of my reading when hitting something that didn't make sense until I reread the sentence trying to figure out what the correct word was.
Having said that, I love, and I mean LOVE this series. To me, it's highly addictive and a fun read. I don't want to put the books down. It's a very enjoyable series that take...more

It could've been better and worse. I know I said BVL would have to do something terrible to make me stop reading. Now I think he has. He doesn't seem to want to end the story. Now it feels like one long running saga that's becoming more contrived as it goes on. The love triangle? Marvin - who will probably become a serious threat to humanity because Kyle has unresolved emotional issues relating to his dead children. Crow - and why he isn't dead yet. After 3 books we should have a new villain if...more

“The President has given his approval, over the objections of several others.” “He’s there in the war room with you?” “Yes.” “Tell him he has my vote next fall, if I’m still technically a citizen, and I’m still alive.”
Conquest maintains the relentless pace you've come to expect in the series. The varied combat settings and return to a defensively style battle also seemed to help in preventing the action from getting stale.

This was a good addition to the series. There seemed to be more errors in this one than the others causing me to drop out of the story at times but overall it wasn't bad enough to make me stop reading. The story itself is very good, I'm getting tired of the love interest stuff and tend to skim it when it comes up. Some sections seem to be wordy and could do with a little cutting back. I don't need to know every detail of every situation.

I love BV Larson's Star Force Series, it's some of the most readable and entertaining SF I've ever read, and I've read hundreds.
I look forward to every new book!

Good fun science first battles and robots that invade the earth. Seriously start at book one and work your way through them. Good entertainment value that is such a guilty pleasure!
Another great sequel if a little repetitive in certain areas. The end sets the story up for an interesting and action packed sequel that I can't wait to read.
Nothing terribly new, but it's still an interesting read.
Again, I think you could make a great game based on this premise.

Damn great series. B.V. Larson is a awesome storyteller. If you like Straship Troopers, Battlestar Galactica, or V........ hell any Sci-Fi you love this series. You can tell the Author love Sci-Fi, but his work is original. So to some it up GREAT, AWESOME, and THE BEST SCI-FI Since Syfy channel ruined Sci-Fi
I only felt a slight bit of guilt reading this pulp sci-fi, but only a little. The series was fun.
Series is pretty good. I wasn't a huge fan of the ending but worth reading still.
Really good series. Whenever a new one comes out, I read it.
Decent space battle book. I like where the series is going and I look forward to the next one.
More!!!!
Meh
