After the battle in which the men of the destroyer Walker and their Lemurian allies repelled the savage Grik, Lieutenant Commander Matthew Reddy is shocked by the arrival of a strange ship captained by one Commaner Jenks of the New Britain Imperial Navy - an island-nation populated by the descendants of British East Indiamen swept through the rift centuries before.
With the Walker undergoing repairs, Reddy already has a great deal on his hands. For the Grik will return, and Reddy will need all hands on deck to fight them off when they next attack. But Jenks's uncertain loyalties make Reddy question whether he can trust the man. As tension between the Allies and the Imperials mount, Reddy will come to realize that his suspicions are not misplaced - and that a greater danger than the Grik is closer than he ever suspected.

"Taylor Anderson has a talent for telling a story with emotion and well drafted characters of all species. Since he has been including the Grik side of the story, which began in the second book I believe, these stories take on a whole new dimension. I will say I am looking forward to number six. " — Robert (4 out of 5 stars)

" Good Story...enjoyed the alternate world. "
" 4th book in series , I will want to read the fifth when it comes out. "
" Book 4 in the Destroyermen series. This one focuses less on action and more on intrigue. Story doesn't really pick up until halfway through, but then it really sucked me in. And as the 4th book in the series, of course it ends in a cliffhanger. I'll be picking up book #5 for sure. "
" The American-Lemurian Alliance goes on the offensive with the Grik and must deal with not-so-friendly New British. This is a great series! "
" Excellent addition to the series, bringing threads together and laying groundwork for future stories "
" I love this author and serial novel. I'm hooked. "

" The latest in Taylor Anderson's "Destoyermen" series does not disappoint--it's non-stop action set in a dangerous universe that echoes those created by Edgar Rice Burroughs, H.G. Wells, and Jules Verne--but it's written in a lean, stylish, modern prose. "
" A bit of a slow start, but still interesting enough once things get going. I'm not happy about the lack of closure, but I guess that's to be expected in a series like this. Other authors have often managed some closure in each book of a series. "
" just so bloody good. "
" Kept me entertained. Usually, an alternative history series gets worse and worse after the second book. But Anderson has found a way to keep introducing new aspects that keeps things interesting. "
" Enjoyed it, but not quite four stars. "
" I had been worried that Anderson's plot was stagnating with a constant "kill-the-lizard-with-the-amazing-American-firepower" -- fine for the first three books, but I didn't want another. He introduced some very interesting new plot twists and I am looking forward to the next book or two! :) "
" This was a bridge novel. Yes, there was lots of action and I enjoyed reading it but nothing was really settled. Kidnappings, battles, sneak attacks, reclamation, dishonorable actions...and we're left hanging... "
" Good book, ready to read the next in the series. "
" I'm so glad I waited to read this til the next book came out... This was an even bigger cliff-hanger ending than usual for Anderson. Potentially very frustrating, to really be in the storyline, only to find that it's finished in another book. "
" Half a book, really. While the whole Destroyermen series is an ongoing tale, this one stops at a much less natural place than the previous books. Happily, the next book is already written, so I won't have to wait. "
" Always fun to read this series. Anderson has done a good job of taking a quirky idea and expanding it into an epic story much like WWII. It's not quite as big, but he is keeping it fresh with new elements always being added. "
" Good book, it's a great saga, perhaps he repeat a bit too much in the books with descriptions, etc. "
" The Empire representatives have arrived, the treachery begins. "
" Hurry up and finish writing the series plx. "
