Ok, so this book has problems but I still enjoyed it (albeit in part thanks to Carl Prekopp's narration), and yes, it is basically just 1/3 of a book (trilogies sell!) with no story resolution. Still - a solid 4* and I am looking forward to the next one.
The first 3 chapters were actually amazing, 5 star material. I felt as if the book lost its way, no progress was really made on the mission, just teamgathering. So that was a bit of a deflation, and then to have it end the way it did really made me wonder as to how worthwhile it will be to read book 2 because of course, we don't yet have book 3, so there'll be quite a wait I fancy before things start to happen. Good writing of course, great characterisation, but disappointing that nothing really happens other than the extraction, which on reflection is the whole point, given the novels title...
