Great author.”★★★★★ "Blackout Invasion is an amalgamation of grin-inducing banter among the primary characters, well-choreographed action scenes, and a uniquely imaginative far-future perspective about what happened to Earth that is not only nostalgic, but leaves the reader feeling hopeful for humans, even against the monstrous threat they now face.
