Captain Nova Whiteside is assigned to the elite Vanguard task force assembled to combat an increasingly dangerous rebel force. Her no-nonsense new commander is of an enigmatic and reclusive species that soon figures most decisively in the balance of power.

Their pursuit of a ruthless rebel leader takes them through the worlds and dangers of the Commonwealth-dominated Targon sector where the line between their personal lives and their mission quickly begins to blur.

On their quest to recover a dangerous, living weapon in rebel hands it seems that the greatest opposition comes from among their own people and Nova must choose between duty to her command and loyalty to her friends.

Although the Targon Tales are numbered chronologically, each book is a complete adventure. The volumes describe common themes, settings and characters but can be read in any order.

"More adventures with the fiery redhead as she dazzles the universe. Chris You are headed to the top of my author list with this series. I know who I want as my co-pilot when I go to space."

Descrizione prodotto

L'autore

I am a first generation Canadian currently and out of necessity residing on planet Earth (which, in the general and interplanetary scheme of things could REALLY use a catchier name, if you ask me. I mean, imagine heading past Proxima Centauri and someone asks you whence you came and you tell them "dirt". All theological implications aside, that just won't do.) . My first full-length work of fiction, a fantasy (which, I just realized, takes place on a planet that doesn't have a name at all), 'The Gods Of Chenoweth' is available at Amazon.

For the second novel, Only Human, I headed out far beyond Proxima Centauri and found a nifty story that soon turned into a Space Opera complete with worm holes and improbable laser guns. What fun. Laws of physics need not apply if you find a way to explain them away.
Because of reader comments, this book is now turning into a series. . When not finding ways to torture my subjects or entice them with inter-species hanky-panky, I design web sites or write about designing web sites. I enjoy long walks on the beach or, given the local beach shortage, write about beaches far beyond Proxima Centauri

As with the previous books in this series I couldn't put it down. I have sat and read it through very quickly. I am now about to start the next one, can't wait to Nova's next adventure.

What impressed me the most about Only Human was the world within it that Chris Reher created. So many different people, languages, and cultures to the point that I was amazed the author was able to maintain continuity of it all! I also greatly enjoyed the strong characterization. We are allowed into almost everyone's heads to hear their thoughts, and in a seamless way that does not jar or confuse. Most importantly, I loved the main characters. I loved Nova's fiery, stubborn, determined attitude. She is strong and `gets the job done' in a way that's not bossy or annoying. I enjoyed Tychon's calmness, his wittiness and his propensity for teasing Nova.

The book is filled to the brim with action and adventure. There are incredibly descriptive fight scenes and rescue missions. Beneath this wonderful story of suspense and action and adventure and romance, Chris Reher also attempts to teach us a vital lesson about race and the awfulness of being judged / ostracized because of our heritage. This is done in an unobtrusive, non-preachy tone - often in an unconscious and/or witty remark or thought.

Improvements:
There are a few missed / transposed words, but the rest of the story is so well done that these tiny gaffes are inconsequential.

For me, I felt the romance developed too quickly. I'll be honest and admit that I like a `slow thaw' (long bits of Unresolved Sexual Tension) between my soon-to-be-couple, so perhaps my bias is clouding my judgment.

I didn't like the decision made at the very end of the book, and felt it was not the right one at all - judging from the background and training of the decision-maker. But in order for me to explain why I feel this way, I will be at risk of revealing spoilers. In any case, I believe the author wrote it this way probably with the intention to continue the story, so I'm not too worried.

All in all, Only Human is an amazing, gripping read. It promises to keep you hooked reading it at ungodly hours of the night (is 4am considered night???). You will become attached both to the story and to the characters, worrying for their safety, cheering for them in their successes, and eager to read on as to what they'll do next. Buy it, read it, and then come thank me for recommending a great book to read. :D

4,0 su 5 stelle Good meaty read that incorporates action, drama and romance.

This was a good book. Nova Whiteside is again the central character and thee story comes together in a way that tends to leave the reader waiting for the next chapter to start. The anticipation is well worth the wait. This book unfolds with Drama, action scenes, romantic scenes and more! All you would expect from the second book in what is turning out to be a good series.

I liked this book quite a bit. While there were a few typos and a few slightly awkward plot points and developments, overall it was a rollicking good time & I enjoyed it. I will definitely buy the next book in the series. While not as tightly plotted and richly imagined as my most top favorite sci fi/fantasy books, it was very good - the characters were thoughtful, the interspecies relationships (and I'm not just talking about sex) were interesting and had some dimension. So often space operas are populated by strictly cardboard characters who are only there to move the action plot forward. This one was better than that - I hope the author develops this into a series where some of the more interesting aspects of this alternative universe and characters can be explored. I liked the fact that the characters acknowledged the ambiguities of the ongoing territorial conflict, the moral choices of war, and the statistically very unlikely fact that all of the species were essentially humanoid. Since this was a free book (and SO much better than most free books) I am presuming this is a fairly new author. I applaud the effort & hope the author continues develop his/her vision and craft. I especially recommend this book to "trekkies" - it's familiar ground in terms of the general landscape of multiple humanoid populations with LOTs of common ground.

Dauntless heroes (and an interspecies love affair), vile villains (including a sociopath with a history addiction), exotic locales (if you don't mind your clothes stinking of ammonia), and fast-moving space battles... What's not to like?

In this third novel of the Targon Tales, Captain Nova Whiteside, a hotshot pilot who spends more time as a uniformed James Bond than flying (as some of her COs have complained in the past), is put into a new assignment which requires both sets of skills as part of the job description-- flying the fastest, best armed and stealthiest the Union Commonwealth's Air Command has, doing forward reconnaissance and special forces missions far behind rebel lines. Their primary mission will be the capture or killing of the head of the rebellion, and the saving of a six year old boy, one who holds the future of the Union in his childlike hands.

The book, like the first two in the series, is strongly character driven, and watching Nova Whiteside's growing disillusionment with some of the Union's policies-- policies she has spent a decade carrying out at gunpoint as a fighter pilot-- as well as her increasing recognition that the blind following of orders is not always in the best interests of those for whom she cares or for the Union itself-- is one of the strongest aspects of the series thus far. The growing love she shares with her senior pilot aboard the Eagle fighter is equally well written.

Since this review should contain some critique, there is one thing that grates-- the author has chosen to use all army/air force ranks for the Union fighters, and calls them 'soldiers' throughout. At least in the present day, cruisers and battleships aren't flown by soldiers, and the pilots who fly off carriers aren't in the army or even the air force. Naval ranks would have been more appropriate, perhaps with a complement of Marines as well. [Admission: I am a retired Naval Officer, and possibly biased...]
