Almost a juvenile SF book. The plot and character development are very basic if heroic. The technology that allows one out of date light cruiser to destroy squadrons of larger was not believable and the sudden turn at the end was disappointing and came out of left field. This story needs some editing and rewriting because it has good ideas.

Evolution Wars is a great military sci-fi with an interesting story. It examines issues with eugenics and human evolution as it presents a scenario where Homo Sapiens have become displaced and oppressed by their own generically engineered subrace of superior humans. The resulting conflict certainly raises questions about the wisdom of altering our own generic code and exactly what or who qualifies to represent "humanity" in a future where genetically superior humans exist. If you are a fan of action-oriented military sci-fi with interesting plots and characters, this is the perfect book for you.

Intriguing story
With a satisfying beginning, good storyline, good characters.
Not so satisfying is the ending and the knowledge it’s not foreseen as a series, yet. Please reconsider! :)
It’s still worth the stars.

Worthwhile. 3 stars, I gave the synchronicity wars 4. Never tempted to put the book down.

Good read but I hate the ending
Yep, I really wanted our two heroes to come out on top. But that was. Not to be. So sad

May the best man win.
A war that makes no sense and ends a little quickly? The super villain doesnt use all his options. How version two is created not explained?

Mediocre story with flat and undeveloped characters. OK to read if you have found a copy on a train but I would advise against spending your money on it.
