The Great Martian War: Counterattack

Martian Front Series

By: Scott Washburn

Narrated by: Ray Greenley

In this third audiobook in the Martian Front series, humanity fights for its existence.

As the Martian force tries to consolidate their position in the US, President Theodore Roosevelt gathers the best scientific minds and industry leaders to meet the Martian challenges. Staking everything on a roll of the dice, a joint army-navy force are in the midst of developing a landship to win the war. The big question is if they can complete it in time.

great as always

I really loved this one a great addition to the series can't wait to read the next one.

The excitement continues!

This book was excellent. It includes several battles, full of action and turmoil. It is a great step toward a conclusion.... however, it does not conclude the story, so I only gave it 4 stars. After some research, I have discovered that at least 2 more stories are planned, but are not necessarily continuously tied to this initial trilogy. This trilogy is being called "America in Flames." The other books coming out (according to Amazon - and these aren't audiobooks yet, either) are The Texas Front (December 2018), and Europe Ablaze (March 2019). Despite the fact that the story has not yet ended, I rather enjoyed this trilogy and do recommend it. Ray Greenley does an excellent job at narration, and I think Scott Washburn is a pretty enticing author. If you've listened to the first 2 books, you'll love this one. I recommend this series with some caution - it may not end, but at least the ride is a good one.

Still fun

I have to admit that this series has been a guilty pleasure of mine. The story itself is nothing extraordinary but it is still a lot of fun. This entry in the series is definitely worth a read, some of the worst problems of earlier entries are less apparent as we see fewer historical characters showing up and derailing the story with unnatural dialogue. Again the highlight of the book are the portions giving the Martian perspective of events.

Great Trilogy!

This is a great trilogy. Too bad there aren't more. Narrator not the best. Pretty Funny actually. Most of the voices were the same 2 or 3.

Nice Ending to Interesting What-if? Historical Fic

Greenley does a great job narrating Washburn's wrap-up of The Great Martian War trilogy...(spoiler: or is it?) It was great to spend time with some well-developed characters and see how they end up in the next stage of the Martian war saga. As I was listening to this book on my daily commute, I could almost see the giant tanks and war machines the military cooked up in this book to fight the Martians. One day, I was so lost in the book I slowly rolled through a stop sign...and got pulled over (whoops.)

Overall, a solid conclusion to what I'll call a "what-if"/Sci-Fi/Historical fiction/War novel. Thanks for the great read/listen!
