The third book in Stephen Coonts' Saucer series appears to suffer from a sense of purpose. When reading it, it feels like the president conveys the thoughts and emotions of the author, of having enough of the main characters and not knowing how things will end. Given the books ending I am still a bit curious about where the series will go from here (if at all), but currently don't care if it will or won't continue. The first book is still the best of the three and neither of the follow-ups has captured the sense of wonder and adventure that the first book had. So the library has this thing called Surprise reads where they give the genre of the book and that's it. I decided to pick up the sci-fi pick and it was this. I realized after it was the finale in a trilogy but gave it a shot anyway. And what a fun read. Hard core sci-fi it is not. This is my first Coonts book but I don't think it will be my last. I enjoyed Rip, Charley and Egg so much I may go back and read the first two.
status shows finished, bt I gave up a third of the way into it. just couldn't get into the story.
