Summary

When humanity reaches for the stars, our probes are destroyed. They crash into an incredibly advanced piece of technology: a massive force-field. Unknown beings have placed a barrier around our star and planets, enclosing us within. We’re locked inside a Great Sphere.

Was this invisible obstacle built to imprison us - or to protect us? No one knows the truth, but it soon becomes clear the barrier has leaks. Aliens infiltrate and try to sabotage our efforts to escape our cage.

A warship crewed by military people and scientists beta-test an engine designed to pass through the barrier. Chief Gray, a security officer from Control, is assigned to help. His mission is critical: Earth must escape her bonds at all costs, even if it means war with our hostile neighbors.

War of the Spheres is a new novel by James Millington and B. V. Larson, a best-selling SF author with over three million copies sold.

Not too bad, but....

Not too sure how to vote, I liked it, but a the same time, no so much. Will still get the next one if there is a next, but it won’t be on my priority list.

Meh

I must admit I was somewhat disappointed with this title. the narrative felt clumsy as though written by someone who normally writes instruction manuals. Certainly not one of R Larsons' best.

You get annoyed

The only form of communcation possible in this futuristic world is paper. I kid you not, the only comms possible between earth and the protagionists space ship in our solar system is paper..and that is never explained. Good ole radio, not possible it seems, morse code ? far to advanced for this book, you think comms lasers ? narr.. Incredulity to the max, very annoying.
