Aftershocks by Marko Kloos

4.0

Very strong 4!
A seemingly military sci-fi with a very detailed world-building introduced to the reader five years after the system-wide war as seen through the eyes of a loosing side POW, a ship captain on patrol duty, a sergeant of the winning side helping to police the occupied planet, a young top executive joining the management of her family’s company.
As a first book in the series it does a vey good job of welcoming the reader into this world of multiple systems that has only enjoyed a few years of peace. And now this peace is even more fragile then before. How the different characters are connected and who are the villains? By the end of the book we have very little information about it and the plot is not resolved.
I’d say that the major drawback of the book is that lack of information - too much remains hidden and leaves this tiny feeling of disappointment.
The next book is due in couple of weeks and I can’t wait to read it.
