Summary: This book was great!!!
Review: This book was very hard to put down--the action went very fast and riveted my attention. I hope he writes a sequel--the story was left open, and I would like to know what happens when the humans meet the Kangas in this future!
Rating:
Summary: Dense action. Non-stop adventure. Natural aliens.
Review: This is a remarkable book. The first 90+ pages are non-stop action. The most continuously exciting "opening" of any sci-fi book I've every read! The science is solid and detailed. The good guys and alien are deep and believeable. The battle scenes are specific and real. With this one book David Weber has replaced Arthur Clarke as my favorite sci-fi author. (Sorry, Artie.) I can't wait to start his other stories.

Summary: The Apocalypse Read
Review: This is my 1st time out reading David Weber. I have not had the honor to read any of the Honor Harrington novels, although my friend tells me they are on the "must-read" list. Apocalypse Troll starts off promising, but quickly falls into a semi predictable fish-out of water story mixed with Robin Cook's: Invasion storyline. The characters were put togher haphazardly and didn't command much from my attention as well as feelings. The book is good for a light read and I wouldn't rate it high on my reading list.

Summary: A good intro to David Weber
Review: This was my first David Weber novel. It has piqued my interest in his other works. It starts fast then begins a slow build up of tension until the explosive climax. Just like a an entertaining novel should.
Rating:
Summary: Excellent, fast paced and action pack
Review: Weber's latest kept me riveted from the start. His story moves flawlessly from future to present time and is a typical Weber techno-military thriller. His description of modern navy hardware is good though slightly out of date, ie: USS Kidd was decommissioned last year, and as in the Honor Harrington novels his future tech is scientifically well thought out. I enjoyed the characters and the storyline from start to finish. Hope to see more of Capt Aston and Col Leonovna.

Summary: David Weber At His Best! Excellent-A Must Read SF
Review: Wow! This book was my introduction to the author David Weber. The characters are well developed. This book portrays a woman as the hero. The plot is rich and so is the action! I highly recommend this book and all of David Weber's books-especially all of the Honor Harrington Series! This is a must read SF book. Believe me you won't be disappointed spending the money AND THE PRICE IS RIGHT!

Summary: Well-written mil-SF/romance, fast-paced & fun.
Review: ____________________________________________
As Apocalypse Troll opens, 25th-century humans have been at war
with the alien Kanga for centuries. The Kanga are on the ropes; in
desperation they send a battle group into Terra's past, to cut off the
foe at the roots. BatDiv 92, Terran Navy is soon in hot pursuit. The
two task forces virtually annihilate each other. Col. Ludmilla
Leonovna shoots down the last Kanga ship -- with some help from
the US Navy of 2007 -- but is herself shot down by the last cyborg
Troll's fighter. She falls to Earth, and into the arms of USN Capt.
Richard Aston: "Take me to your leader", she said with a perfectly straight face. The last Troll is at large, with 25th-century weapons and a
bioengineered compulsion to waste humans. Ludmilla must
convince 21st-century Earth of the terrible danger they face... Ludmilla is demonstrating her
sidearm: < *BIG* flash-bang here > "What the hell *is* that thing? What d'you call it?" "I'm afraid we call it a 'blaster'," she said apologetically... It's all good, clean fun and brother, do those pages turn -- this one
kept me up til 2 AM. Everything *works* here -- the people, the
aliens, the future technology, the battles, the romance .... I had a great
time, and so will you. Apocalypse Troll is Weber's 18th published novel, but apparently was actually his first written, some ten years ago. This would have been a very impressive first novel -- I have no idea why it ended up as a "trunk" novel.
