review 1: Number 6 in Kent's clone series, our man Harris is portrayed (slightly awkwardly) both as less sure of himself and yet more in control this time (less surge from the boosted adrenaline glands), although the control is something Harris seems to regret.We still pelt along at a fair pace, moving between several planets (and back again), but for me it doesn't quite have the same appeal as the first five novels did. The action sequences seemed a little "distant" - not so visceral as the previous books, but the overall story pace is still pretty good.Having said that, I haven't finished it yet - I'm 3/4's of the way through and we're now starting to ramp up to a bit of excitment which may be more promising ... will re-edit this once complete.(... a couple of days later...)OK, t... morehe epilogue indicates the direction the story arc is going (no spoilers) and I can see how Empire is a link towards that goal, laying political and character-emotional points as hooks for book 7.If you like the series (and I do), definitely read this as it ties up a couple of loose ends as well.
review 2: The Clone Empire by Steven L. Kent is the latest book in the Clone series. Once again we find Wayson Harris in the middle of more action than he wants. Harris is asked to leave the planet he saved from the Unified Authority. When he joins the rest of the Clone Fleet he finds that UA needs their help to defeat an old enemy that has reappeared, an enemy that threatens to destroy every planet humans have colonized. There is a lot of action and intrigue in Clone Empire but no resolution to the problems Wayson and the rest of the clones are facing. Instead Clone Empire sets the stage for the next part of Wayson’s adventure. less
