He is an artist in designing a high-tech battlefield and weaving in the human element with his character's depth and color. If you like action in a science fiction setting then you really need to pick this up from book one and give it a shot." - Tom Clementson, The Kindle Book Review~ "If John Scalzi and Tom Clancy got combined in a transporter accident a la The Fly....and I mean that in a good way."~ "This series brings me back to the old days when Sci-Fi was about ass kicking, great friends, loyalty and action."~ "Umstead has a way of putting you right into the scene, whether it be on a Jamaican beach, a rundown apartment or the icy surface of a distant planet." ~ “Character-rich story, non-stop adventure (think Jason Bourne travels the stars). Completely immersive read."~"...the military fiction of Tom Clancy, the hardware of Heinlein's Starship Troopers, and the intrigue of Dan Brown." ~ "The detail of the world-building pulled me in and made everything utterly believable." ~ "Well-thought-out universe with a tightly woven history, timeline, and culture." ~ "The author's imagination is amazing...he has knowledge of combat tactics, both with squads and hand-to-hand." ~ "Umstead's writing is solid, as good as it gets, not only in the genre, but in general." ~ "Umstead deals with issues like honor, responsibility and human nature. While deep in thematic content the forward thrust of the story never stops.”
