Summary
Vicious interstellar conflict with an indestructible alien species. Bloody civil war over the last habitable zones of the cosmos. Political unrest, militaristic police forces, dire threats to the solar system...
Humanity is on the ropes, and after years of fighting a two-front war with losing odds, so is Commonwealth Defense Corps officer Andrew Grayson. He dreams of dropping out of the service one day, alongside his pilot girlfriend, but as warfare consumes entire planets and conditions on Earth deteriorate, he wonders if there will be anywhere left for them to go.
After surviving a disastrous spaceborne assault, Grayson is reassigned to a ship bound for a distant colony - and packed with malcontents and troublemakers. His most dangerous battle has just begun.
In this sequel to the best-selling Terms of Enlistment, a weary soldier must fight to prevent the downfall of his species...or bear witness to humanity’s last, fleeting breaths.

Great story, loved this installment
I really enjoyed the first book so decided I'd continue, glad I did. Kloos picks up the story in excellent fashion and delivers a compelling and engaging story from start to finish. Daniels does an excellent job of the narration, keeping track of numerous characters with believable and consistent narration, so much so that I'll be finishing the series in audio form over written probably. what I like about this series is how detailed Kloos gets without bogging things down, really makes me think about how these types of scenarios or technological challenges would play out. looking forward to number 3!

Excellent story and good narration.
Loved the books and this does not disappoint. If I had one complaint the narrator seems to think everyone in the military speaks with barely disgused aggression and a throat problem. Other than that, looking forward to the next one.

Superb
I have read the books already and I'm currently working my way through the audio books now. It really shines a new light on some of the characters and scenarios. The return of Sgt Fallon is definitely one of the highlights of this book.

Tremendous storyline just good, really good
I enjoyed this more than the first book as I warmed to the characters, i found myself leaning forward during the action sequences. if the remaining 2 novels keep up this pace, then I'll be a very happy bunny.
it has echoes of the halo series where the action sequences were exciting as well. Again good, really good.

Warming up nicely
After Book 1 I was a little apprehensive that Book 2 would also go along the same lines. Wrong! There is far more action in this chapter of the series, which made the storyline more interesting.
Whether it will continue to hold interest remains to be seen.

humans are idiots
even with aliens coming to wipe them out the humans prefer to fight and kill each other instead of protecting their own people until the aliens come.
an excellent story anyway.
