I saw the last two books of this sereies at the local bookstore, and though about buying the first book in the series off Amazon. Before I decide to buy it, is it any good?
David Howery said:I loved the first book in the series... unfortunately, the series' quality dribbled downhill after that, little by little... the books have kinda the same formula... the US troops beat a small horde of the aliens, and up pops a bigger one.. they beat that one and up pops a bigger one.. and so on...

There are nine books in the series right now, correct?
That "Well, we defeated them last book, but here comes an even bigger, badder bunch who just didn't feel like getting involved until now" theme quickly got old. I wrote a satire about what would happen if the copyright on The Lord of the Rings had been broken (there was a lawsuit to do this a few years ago) and Forstchen among others had signed on to do the "revised" version. If anyone is interested I can post it.
