Synopsis
Humankind may have won the battle, but a new threat looms larger than ever before…
Earth’s armed forces have stopped the Lanky advance and chased their ships out of the solar system, but for CDC officer Andrew Grayson, the war feels anything but won. On Mars, the grinding duty of flushing out the twenty-meter-tall alien invaders from their burrows underground is wearing down troops and equipment at an alarming rate. And for the remaining extrasolar colonies, the threat of a Lanky attack is ever present.
Earth’s game changer? New advanced ships and weapons, designed to hunt and kill Lankies and place humanity’s militaries on equal footing with their formidable foes. Andrew and his wife, Halley, both now burdened with command responsibilities and in charge of more lives than just their own, are once again in humanity’s vanguard as they prepare for this new phase in the war. But the Lankies have their own agenda…and in war, the enemy doesn’t usually wait until you are prepared. As Andrew is once again plunged into the chaos and violence of war with an unyielding species, he is forced to confront the toll this endless conflict is taking on them all, and the high price of survival…at any cost.

Relecture : pas grand chose de plus à dire que la fois précédente.
Je garde à l'esprit cette idée de livre de transition. L'auteur mets en place ses nouvelles cartes et il ne les jouera que durant le prochain tour. A tel point qu'on retourne même à certains endroits bien connus.
Cette fois, on se retrouve avec un livre de transition. Beaucoup de passages ne sont là que pour amener le livre suivant et l'on découvre la tournure que pourrait prendre la guerre contre les Lankies dans le futur.
Ça reste un bon livre mais si vous êtes là pour l'action, vous serez déçus. Surtout après la colossale bataille de Mars.
