Review: A Thrilling Read if You Love Sci-Fi and/or Post Apocalyptic Stories!! - After reading through Book 1 - First Encounter (which was a great read full of twists and turns itself), I was eager to find out what would happen to our characters such as Captain Clayton Cross, Keera, and Lori in the next book which I saw was on the way at the end of the story. After the events of First Encounter, I was not too sure what to expect in this new world they found themselves in. Without getting too spoiler-ish, the future seemed rather bleak. When this book - the second in the series - was released, I immediately placed an order for a paperback copy. The day it arrived in the mail I quickly hopped right in. Occupied Earth is a book that is over 400+ pages long, but after two days of intense reading, I satisfyingly completed it. If there is one way when I know a book is good, it is when it has me completely captivated to keep reading in order to find out what happens next. That is exactly what happened to me with this one. I loved reconnecting with several characters from the previous book, such as Clayton Cross, who now had a totally different set of challenges facing him versus the ones he previously faced in First Encounter as captain of Forerunner One. In addition to reconnecting with the familiar characters, we are introduced to a whole new set of characters, one in particular we can describe as 'man's best friend' *wink* which definitely made the story much more captivating. To keep my plot summary simple, it was a story full of many ups and downs, plot surprises, and riveting action that kept me anxious to find out what would happen next. In addition, while a lot of the story focused on survival in the wastes outside of the city, I really enjoyed how Scott explored sci-fi concepts that could both one day become reality in our real world and influenced the story significantly, from invisibility cloaks to faster-than-light space jumps to name a couple. I found this dynamic between futuristic technology and primitive survival to be an interesting balance that made the story unique. A lot of the survival in the primitive wastes outside of the city reminded me of one of my other favorite post-apocalyptic type series - the Metro series by Dmitry Glukhovsky. In the end though, I was happily satisfied with the outcome at the end of this book. As others have mentioned in their reviews, you definitely do form a bond with the characters as you progress throughout the story. However, just like at the end of First Encounter, it made me wonder what could possibly happen next. I'm currently trying to think if there was any foreshadowing Scott sprinkled in the book that could give me an idea of what to expect in the next installment of this series. I am certainly excited for book three! In conclusion, If you are looking for a fun, adventurous, and nonstop action type science-fiction/post-apocalyptic book, I definitely recommend this one along with its prequel First Encounter.
Review: Gripping and fast read, but not without problems - I have really enjoyed the series thus far. It contains all the elements of a great trilogy (or more). The story is fairly easy to follow but it could use more of the Clancy(esk) detail behind describing things that are alien to us. This has improved from book 1 to book 2 but still there are many unanswered questions that I just beg to know that are not well explained. While a very good read, it is reminiscent of a throwback horror film where you yell at the screen for the person to not do X, knowing full well they will do X and pay the price for it. So parts of the story are infuriatingly predictable. People make the most obvious of human mistakes. I.E. my wife thinks I'm dead, I'm trying to get back to her, but let me sidetrack to a building and investigate a noise. Oh I think I'll keep this dog I found. Noooo this dog won't we loud at inappropriate times in a world where hiding and keeping silent is key. You know I'm thirsty and the dog is probably thirsty, lets go get some water... and food. Oh yeah... my WIFE. To salvage this, the pacing is really driven enough that you plow through despite some of these odd distractions. Overall, very enjoyable, and leaving me wanting more. I like that on the surface the book doesn't give you the easy and obvious victories that most books do. Good people die (for good). The ending is not neatly wrapped with a ribbon. And you know that in the next book all hell will continue breaking loose. Kudos to the author for what I feel is ultimately a successful series.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fitting sequel.
*by K***H on August 3, 2025*

The storyline is well developed from book one. Characters old and new fit in well. I loved the family ties that took hold throughout the book. There is no break for the human survivors on earth. Another entertaining read, Thank you.
