Scattered Suns, by Kevin J. Anderson

Scattered Suns is the fourth book in The Saga of the Seven Suns. It contines the tale of epic interstellar war. I'm not going to go too much further into the detail though, since it's very much the middle of a series. However, there is a good recap at the start of the book which allows you to catch up, or if you have not read previous books in the series.

There isnt really much I can say in this reivew that is different from my review of the previous book in the series, however. Ultimately, the plot is patchy, the characters range from naive to just plain stupid and the story does not stand up to scrutiny.

And exactly as the previous book, it's still a good read. It's not a book to take seriously; it's the action film of the literary word. A bit of fun, a few laughs, some adventure, some excitement. If you don't take this book seriously, and if you've read the previous ones and can cope with it, this is an easy, fun book to read.
