Summary

 Based on the blockbuster Xbox game, this is the stunning story of the men and women who stood between a planet and total destruction—and now have to face the consequences of their actions.

After a brutal fifteen-year war for survival, the Coalition of Ordered Governments is forced to destroy mankind’s last city in a final bid to stop the Locust Horde. As the survivors flee Jacinto, they must contend with the last of the Locust, bent on vengeance, as they struggle to stay alive in an icy wilderness. Marcus Fenix, Dom Santiago, and their fellow Gears fight to get Jacinto’s refugees to a safe haven, but find themselves in a lawless new world where the enemy is human—and as desperate and dangerous as any grub.

another gripping installment in the gears franchise, written with a lot of feeling and it makes you feel like you can relate to the characters as they feel human, you get a real sense of what the characters are feeling, and from the unknowing feeling of them feeling lost with no idea what's to come to the story developments that lead to not only a new hope, but questions of what is to come, it deals with the dark reality of what humans can be capable of and can't help but compare them to the monster's they have been fighting

Good story, a touch light weight, well told. Always nice to connect to the GOW characters. Like meeting up with friends from my school days.

Decent addition

Working my way through the Gears novels, and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the first two editions. As with ‘Aspho Fields’, the book is split into two stories - ‘past’ and ‘present’, both of which held my attention throughout. Pretty essential reading for those who are interested in the expanded lore of the series.

Cons: a little slow to get going; some not-so-great accents again from the narrator.

Another enjoyable read

The first gears of war was better than the second. The first was all about how they went to war, and the second was like blah blah blah.

Okay
