In the midst of recovering from their successful if casualty prone first mission, the crew of the Alliance Space Ship Vorpal Blade are suddenly scrambled back into action. All other priorities take second place as word arrives on earth of a gate colony which has fallen to an unidentified alien assault. As the only space ship currently available to the Human-Adar Alliance, the Vorpal Blade is dispatched to find out what happened to the colony, rescue any survivors and learn the identity of the attackers.
With new complexities added to the universe started in the novel Into the Looking Glass and continued in Vorpal Blade, Manxome Foe continues the tradition of non-stop action, valorous if quirky characters and rigorous science drawn from the frontiers of current theory. The odd-ball crew of the Vorpal Blade is an unlikely savior of earth, but none dare say they quail at engaging the Manxome Foe.

The Human-Adar Ship ASS Vorpal Blade has been quickly refitted for a second dive into interstellar space in search of more answers about the Dreen. Blocked from entering through the multiple Earthside "looking glass" entry points from planets they dominate, humans and Adar must discover if the murderous Dreen can approach through normal space. On this second mission, the specially trained Marines...now dubbed Space Marines...have to take on a genuine Dreen threat. An exciting hard science fiction story that proposes a realistic two-sided confrontation between humans and alien invaders. Flows smoothly, draws you through effortlessly. One of the lead characters is the astrogator, a maverick scientist based roughly on co-author, Southern-fried NASA scientist Travis Taylor of TV's Renegade Rocketeers (see YouTube) who provides the physics grounding for this tale. Looking forward to the fourth bookProduct details

Manxome Foe Looking Glass Series Book 3 (Audible Audio Edition) John Ringo L J Ganser Travis S Taylor Recorded Books Books Reviews
This series just plain ROCKS!! "Manxome Foe" picks up right where the series paused and is even more action packed than the previous editions. The only issue I have ever had with John Ringo's writing is that it seems he tires of a series and just drops it. "We Few", "Council Wars", and the Kildar series are good examples of just leaving a series hanging. But even though there is always this possibility, I still cannot help but read every Ringo book that is published.
Ringo. Creates time and space for his stories. Time that I love, space I wish I could visit. as a cook.
I've read 13 of his books so far and they're all good to me. I will get some more of his books.
Really different but interesting and exciting alternate history-type book and series. I really loved the whole concept and all the books. I hope there are more to come!
Manxome Foe was excellent. John Ringo started this series when he wrote, "Into the Looking Glass". Travis Taylor joined Mr Ringo in the second book of the series, "The Vorpral Blade". This new book by both of them continue with the galaxy spanning adventures of Lieutenant Commander William "Doc" Weaver and Seal Master Chief Miller. This is classic action SF with a large does of real science thrown in for fun. Each of the books in this series can stand alone, but it is best when you read the entire series. This is one book you should put on your must read list for this year. Take the time and treat yourself and buy this book! ENJOY!
I'm absolutely addicted to this series! It's easy to do when the characters are so believable. They realize that their end could come at any moment and don't act as otherwise
This is a classic tale of good vs evil and I can't wait to find out whether or not "Ms. Moon" will be good or evil in the next installment.
If you line a seat of your pants read then you've got the right book in your hands!

Well, the author pretty much put his foot in his mouth in his wrap up chapter in the previous book. He basically stated "The heck with critics. I'm going to teach physics!!!" That did not last long, or work out well. Hard SciFi is great - but not over the top. This book treats the physics and science as it should be - part of the story, not damn boring lectures. The action was much improved, the pace was faster, and overall this was a much better book. Miriam Moon in getting interesting, interesting, interesting - and hot.
The title of the book "Manxome Foe" - like Vorpal and Looking Glass, is right out of Lewis Carroll...
"Jabberwocky"
"He took his vorpal sword in hand
Long time the manxome foe he sought..."
It's also unusual for so many hard cover titles to come out in such a short time for the same series - that's what comes from jobbing it out, and the publisher having confidence in the books.
Great SciFi, decent writing, another interesting plot, and a new alien race.
One part of the book that was really, really poorly thought out was the final page. I won't spoil it. My analogy (from memory) was from "Fail Safe." Two airmen are in the computer room when a circuit fries. One of the guys smells the burning electronics and comments on it. The other twit basically answers that it's him burning up because he's mad. No followup, nothing. Why have all that security, checking, testing, etc., just to totally ignore the results? "Fail Safe" really FAILED on that point, and the book does as well.
The two well known characters that are missing from this book, well, have no place in this book. Come on, they hardly had a place in the previous book!
The final battle in this book - a page turner!!
