The Search for Orion

The Search for Orion (Nemesis, #2)The Search for Orion by Saxon Andrew
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Search for Orion continues the universe spanning action adventure which never lets up, seriously no character in this series ever gets any rest unless they get killed and even that that's no guarantee. So the Earth had pretty much extracted their revenge on the Raiders who were the dominant known race in the galaxies but alas they've used their military strength to carve out an empire of their own committing as many atrocities as the Raiders ever did. Decisions have to be made and once again questions have to be asked and answered, the truth has yet to be revealed about the destruction of Avalon and the pattern continues as those with power are prepared to do anything to both maintain it and expand it.
This was a fun read, yes it was a little over the top and can not be considered as serious scifi but that's fine, I knew what I was getting after the first novel so came away from this one very satisfied and pretty sure I will be checking out other novels from Saxon Andrew, my reading list has room for all shades of science fiction.

Revenge is Best Served Hot

Revenge is Best Served Hot (Nemesis, #1)Revenge is Best Served Hot by Saxon Andrew
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Grant and Cinny the last two humans alive are constantly on the run from the universe spanning empire that destroyed the Earth, of course they didn't actually understand at the time why they were being hunted until they stumbled upon information about their legacy and very existence. They are the products of the most advanced genetic engineering of the time and maybe with the aid of the pinnacle of destructive engineering they will be able to avenge their world.
Revenge is Best Served Hot is pretty much a rollercoaster of a science fiction tale, don't worry about the intricacies of the technology or the universe spanning scope of the story just enjoy the characters and the fast paced action and mystery they are immersed it. The book is fun, never lets up and I bought the second book in the series as soon as I had finished this one, I just had to see what Saxon could come up with next, it's never boring I tell you that.
