Amazing Series!

This is the fourth book in a series and I eagerly awaited it's arrival. Mr. Kent did NOT disappoint. This was superbly written and a fast paced ride. The author gets you involved and interested in the main character, Wayson Harris, and takes you along for the rollar coaster ride adventure. For Harris, it's a life or death situation for him and the entire human race. I know you may have heard that scenerio before, but this book and series stands out from all the others. I impatiently await the next novel due out this year!

Alien encounters

In "The Clone Elite," Steven L. Kent's fourth entry in the Wayson Harris saga (three more to come, the author says in his afterword), Harris (along with his mercenary pal Ray Freeman, of course) finds himself on a wintry planet, under siege by the aliens met briefly in the previous installment. The aliens' technique is to "sleeve" the planet in an aura of light, so that communications and space ships can't get through. At first the fight goes well, as more than a million troops defeat 50,000 aliens. Or have they? The situation becomes increasingly desperate as the military has to keep fending off the bad guys (called mudders) while the scientists work under pressure to find a "magic bullet" solution. And that part of the novel is what elevates it above the previous entries: for the first time we get a look at tech (other than the author's "broadcasting" idea--in which space ships can transport themselves all over the galaxy instantly) that actually does seem futuristic, rather than something just around the corner. Through it all, the author continues to paint a contrast between the clones and the "natural born" officer class who find the clones useful only as cannon fodder. Toward the end of the tale, it appears that the clones may be . . . well, best not to reveal too much. Let's just say there's way more to be unveiled in the next novel. Notes and Asides: While, of course, it's best to start with the first novel, "The Clone Republic," the author is quite skillful at bringing those new to the series up to date.

Another good addition to an excellent series

I started reading the Clone series by Steven L. Kent about when the second book came out and I anxiously await each subsequent addition. They are a direct continuation from the previous and "Clone Elite" ties in the past books very well. There is plenty of action and the book is impossible to put down. If you are a scifi/fantasy fan and have not tried any of these, do yourself a favor and pick one up.

Excellent Read!

I have been thoroughly entertained by the Clone Series. The Clone Elite, book 3 of the series, takes you to a whole new realm of possibilities. Sorry can't give away any plot twists but I guarantee you will enjoy the read. I Can't wait to see what happens in the next one. If you havn't bought books one and two I highly recommend them all!

Bring in the Clones...and keep them coming!

"The Clone Elite" is the fourth in the series from Ace scifi author Steven L. Kent. It's more of the same...but that's a good thing. The story of interstellar civil war expands to intergalactic invasion as a mysterious army of aliens takes the Milky Way by storm. Kent further develops the conflicted cloned character of Wayson Harris in a heroic tale where the fate of humanity is held in balance. There are new enemies (both foreign and domestic) to kill and lots of new hardware to help do the job. "The Clone Elite" weaves a compelling plot that explores more of clone culture. The introduction of a new extra-galactic alien threat and the inventive path that the characters use to defeat it, provides for a very entertaining read. If you're a military scifi fan, this series is a must read. I already can't wait for the next three books!
