Trail
of Evil was the first Taylor book I read. It only earned three starships mostly because
I felt out of it having not read the three previous books. This jumps to 4 starships due to having had
some background, the story makes more sense.
Former President Alexander Moore has taken his task force to the enemy,
the Chiata. The Chiata are a locust like
scourge trying to cleanse the galaxy of all life but their own. Moore
doesn’t see that as a viable option and takes the war to a distant star system
that may hold a key to human survival.
This, the fifth book in the series, made more sense having
read it’s immediate precursor. The
characters were more familiar and the action was as non-stop as before. Taylor ’s
books are a bit light on story line and very heavy on action. That is not a criticism, merely an
observation.
I enjoyed the book, the addition of new entities and the
guns, guns, guns action.

This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
