Summary

Chief Roach has merged with an alien mech - but can he control its power?

Harnessing alien tech was the only way to counter the power of the quadruped mechs piloted by the Quatro. Except Roach's awesome new weapon is like a sword with no hilt, and it seems to be doing everything it can to fragment his psyche.

Roach must lead Oneiri Team across an Eresos engulfed by the fires of war. Their mission is to stop the legions of Quatro from laying waste to what remains of humanity's colonies.

If Roach can't resist the alien mech's promises of glory and chaos, there will be a meltdown - not just for Oneiri Team, but for everyone on the planet.

Meltdown

The third in the Mechwars series by Scott Bartlett and continues where Dynamo left off with the various groups fighting for their own causes.

This book carries on with those journeys and we start to see some of the group's getting closer to each other and finding out a little more about some of them.

I thought Jake would be the main character bit he isn't featured as much as I thought he would be here.

There's plenty of action, in fact it seems like the whole book is action and it must have been exhausting to write. I did get a little bit confused in this book, "Amblers" are mentioned and during this book what I thought they were became clear that's not what they were at all and if there was a recap about what their function was I must have missed it.

If you're reading a previous book and they are described, remember what they are!

It ends on a frustrating note, I won't spoil how but if I didn't have the next book downloaded and ready to play straight away I would have been very annoyed at how Scott left things. Cliffhangers guarantee people will get the next books though I suppose.

Mark Boyett is again the narrator and I think of him as an old friend now, I've listened to his voice more than anyone else over the last few weeks of catching up with Scott's books and Boyett narrates them all very well.

I recommend this book if you're up to date with the series and you'll definitely want to see how everything pans out.

Continued story of war

As the team continue their struggles they run into issues where some members can't be relied upon and even become the enemy and succumb to the call of the alien technology.

The narration was great.

Great continuation of the story

I've listened to this whole series 3 times, which is pretty rare for me. usually I move on to a new series after finishing something. But for whatever reason, this series has a lasting appeal which I greatly enjoy!
