“I really enjoyed this one. Fast paced, multiple story lines that came together for a satisfying conclusion. You can read this book on its own, but it's really worth digging up the first two Blackcollar books because reading them first will make this one that much more satisfying. My only beef is the cover. The art is fine, it's the content that bothers me. Reading the books will tell you the aliens look nothing like this, nor do the blackcollars' uniforms look like the one on this cover. One more reason to check out those first volumes....
Note, this is titled "Blackcollar 2" but only because the first two books were repackaged into "Blackcollar" with similar cover art. Originally, "The Blackcollar" was book 1, "Blackcollar: The Backlash Mission" was book 2. Don't be fooled into skipping book 2, because although you can go back and read it later, book 3 is a major spoiler to what happens in book 2.”
