Guerra, Alex. Galactic Destiny. E-book ed., Kindle, 2018. Galactic Forge 2.
Building a world that will hold a reader’s attention through three volumes of military SF requires uncommon skills. Alex Guerra’s Galactic Forge series entertains all the way through the first volume—we find a spaceship, have an AI implant, and rescue a princess. The second volume, Galactic Destiny, sags as we acquire allies and begin the war. The trouble is, the enemies are not as much fun as the characters we met in the first volume. Think Star Wars without the cool of Darth Vader. 3 stars.… (mere)

A veteran of the war in Afghanistan discovers a spaceship. He partners with a telepathic AI he calls Dotty, rescues a princess, and is drawn into an interstellar war. Sound familiar? Sure. Galactic Forge by Alex Guerra is a straightforward space opera enhanced by Paul Heitsch’s compelling narration on Audible. And right now it doesn’t cost you a credit to play it. 3.5 stars.
Amateur hour
Clumsy writing and a poorly conceived plot. The early chapters clunk along without developing the main character. Written actions are directly contradictory (how can you ‘step back’ when you don’t have control of your body?).

I was hoping for an epic finish to the Galactic Forge trilogy, but while there is plenty of battle action, the storylines never close. Guerra says he is planning several more volumes, but they have yet to appear. Disappointing—three stars.
