Alien Invasion Book 5 - "Judgement"

There was a bit of time it took for me to adjust to this book as there was a pretty substantial time jump between the last book and this one, and I felt as if I had maybe missed a book due to the narrative referring to events that had happened between the end of the last book and this one. It was odd enough that it made it difficult to get into this book for quite some time.

The story also felt almost forced. It seemed like the story had been going in a certain direction and then things changed all of the sudden and this was also jarring. The story was going all "Mad Max" for a bit and then it was suddenly, and forcibly changed to a calm that seemed to make all of the fighting, death and action seem as if it was all for naught. It was as if the race through the wastelands was maybe added later to make the book longer because it was in such a different direction than that of the rest of the book. Just something to be aware of before diving into the story.

We are introduced to new characters and see the passing of some well known characters in this story. Overall, this was my least favorite book in the series...it felt a lot like filler with some details added to the main story arc that will play out in the next book possibly?

The last few chapters were definitely more exciting and seemed to be back on track, so I am definitely interested to see where this goes!
