Joe Falcon aspires to a quiet life where his family adventures can finally take precedence over the incessant reminders of his previous efforts to prevent humanity’s extinction. Everything seems to be proceeding as planned until a fleet of unidentified ships suddenly appears on the horizon. Joe believes there is mischief afoot while the heads of humanity's governments choose to watch. His suspicions are accurate as an extraterrestrial artificial intelligence is preparing a last-ditch effort to conquer humanity and plunder the enormous resources their solar system has to offer. Joe must once more step up as humanity's savior to prevent Trauq-An from succeeding in its cunning mission in Mike Waller’s Falcon’s Bane.
Man and machine square off in a decisive battle in Mike Waller’s conclusion of the Falcon Trilogy. Although the plot is part of a continuing arc, Waller crafts it well enough to be enjoyed as a stand-alone story. He offers pertinent synopses of the earlier books, which effectively piques the reader's curiosity about how Falcon's Bane will unfold. The characters are masterfully written, and the introduction of ideas like human cloning works quite nicely in a story in which the future human race lives on several planets. Trauq-An's line of reasoning is an example of how Waller uses simple language to explain the story's technical elements. It is easy to assume that Joe’s motivations are driven by revenge when you follow his discussions with Leo. Falcon's Bane is the ideal book for fans of science fiction because it blends cutting-edge world-building with remarkably immersive storytelling.
