The US Space Force was in big trouble. With all its traditional enemies no longer threatening, it was becoming redundant. Then the aliens arrived, warning of others behind them, not so friendly and massing for attack.

The Disinherited in really pretty good military sci fi. Aliens, the Korvaaash, are invading humanity’s worlds and the US Space Force is tasked with fighting them. Unfortunately – and this is a common theme in many military sci fi books, so knock one star off for lack of originality – there

haven’t been any wars within humanity for centuries, so the military has been downgraded and downsized. Now, with a powerful new alien adversary, it has to be seriously regrown, retrained, improved, and taught to fight and fight well. Humanity is fighting for its life. The book drags at times, but has some decent action in it. It’s a good early effort by Steve White. I’d give it 3.5 stars, but I’m just going to round up to four stars and say it’s recommended.
