I like what Ian does in this third book of the heritage trilogy. Using the analysis void review the different layers are explored and examined. The political layer is about 25 years after the last book ends and the war between the United States and the United Nations is finished. The new conflict is brewing between the PCR and US on the second moon of Jupiter Europa. I like the departure from the religious layer as it lets more action take place in the Marine tactics and the technology layer. There is a alien presence at the bottom of the ocean on Europa and it is a race between the Chinese and Americans to encounter the life form and reap the techno benefits. This book was my favorite of the three as I found it a quick easy read and an exciting story. Read it for yourself and let me know what you think. The love layer even made a surface however the message came through loud and clear. We are not alone.
