A review by levi
Anvil Gate by Karen Traviss
4.0
The best of the Gears books, and one of Traviss' best books, period.
She made care about Hoffman and Baird, and the addition of two more factions solved the issue that faced the last book: namely, that COG vs Stranded just isn't that interesting. With another society, one traditionally at war with the COG, joining New Jacinto, and the new threat that the lambent represent, the book had plenty of the moral quandries and tough as nails combat Traviss is known for.
Happy to know that Traviss is writing Gears 3, and hoping that some of the dangling threads from the boom will be resolved in the game.
