What an awesome series this is.

So damn good, that no sooner you finish one, than you are searching out the next.

Her books are not easy to find, even the local library system has limited copies, but Scribd (thank goodness) has a bunch. A little annoying not to have an actual book in my hands, but easily overlooked when the content is this great.

If you have not experienced the Retrieval Artist Universe, you're in for a treat.

On to the next one......

Blowback is Book 2 of the Anniversary Day Saga by Kristine Kathryn Rusch. This novel continues into the exploration of the Moon’s Anniversary Day attacks that happened in Book 1 of the saga. As a result of the attacks, Moon’s Chief Security Officer Noelle DeRicci is trying to hold the remaining vestiges of the government together and learns more information about the attacks that could crumble everything.

Meanwhile, Retrieval Artist Miles Flint has become displeased with the investigation into the attacks and decides to conduct on his own investigation using contacts from both sides of the law. What he learns will shock him and begins to realize that the Anniversary Day attacks was just the tip of the iceburg.

As usual, Rusch creates a credible, solid science fiction thriller with plenty twists and turns to keep a reader guessing right to the very end. However, I see Blowback as more of a transition book in this saga. It is a solid read but I would suggest that newcomers start with Anniversary Day before reading Blowback. Recommended.

Notes:

It seems like there's a setup book, transition book and then the 3/4 books are where the various details pull together and the plot for that portion of the arc flows well.

This is one of my favorite audiobook series. Rusch is an expert at weaving a science fiction story. I love every character in these books. It's one of those that I don't mind that she switches points of view constantly. And I always want more when the books are over. I highly recommend the Retrieval Artist series to anybody that loves good science fiction. Also, Jay Snyder is the perfect narrator for this series.
