Short and Sweet Book Reviews # 197 - Zero Limit by Jeremy K. Brown, Mission To Methone by Les Johnson

Zero Limit by Jeremy K. Brown
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

If it can go wrong it will seems to be at the heart of this story. Politics transferred into the future and space was another underlying theme. This is fast paced but fairly predictable. The characters are fairly well drawn and fit the action. I could not help but draw a parallel to some of the things and people in the news today. I enjoyed the concept but really hated what happened to some of the characters.

Mission To Methonē by Les Johnson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Mission to Methone is the first book in a new series by Johnson. The theme is first contact. An alien ship is discovered and the plot moves from there. Earth is divided and each division has its own goals and they do not match. The characters fit the story and the story moves with some interesting twists and turns. What it does not do is come to any conclusions. We are left wondering if all will be well or all will be lost. The story leading up to that point is well written, the plot is action filled and the science is very believable.
