Publisher's Summary
A predator hunts the skies over Earth. Its intent is peaceful, and its mission is essential, but it is the deadliest machine humanity has ever created.
Piloted by a six-year-old girl, the godlike Skalm guards the Districts of TASC. Her family is long dead. Her adopted father is a synthetic copy of an alien, her nanny an artificial mind connected via subspace to every part of the globe, feeding the young girl information, finding prey to satiate her growing thirst.
But the young girl is an innocent, a victim, one of millions the war has already claimed. Her innocence has been sacrificed by a man with singular purpose: a man who will stop at nothing in order to prepare Earth for the coming conflict.
The armada is approaching, its far-off engines now bright as stars in the night sky. They mean to kill us. They have the power to do so. And as oblivion's maw opens up to engulf us, we brace ourselves for battle.
We will fight to the last. Live or die, we will leave a scar upon our attackers that will last an age, even if we ourselves do not.

What can you say???
I don't know where to begin.
There was plenty of the story that I hated (the injustice of it all) but then I was heartened at the end...
Spoiler alert
Dear Stephen, I'm not too impressed what you did to Neal and Ayallah and how you lifted Jim up out of it all, but your one saving grace was the end of the book at least you brought him back. The icing was Banu's take at the end, banks for that.

Fantastic series
I have slowly been going through the Fear Saga over the last 2 months and have loved every minute of it. The characters are interesting and slowly develop over time and are superbly distinguishable through excellent narration. For fans of sci-fi I cannot recommend this series more highly, you will not be disappointed.

Good conclusion to the series
The book is a good conclusion to a great series. However the author seems to spend an inordinately long time delving into the emotional state of all the main characters. I feel this makes the story drag along too slowly at times. After all the buildup to the end the climax seems to come suddenly and is over before it begins.

Epic. Engaging. Love it!
Would you consider the audio edition of Fear the Future to be better than the print version?
Haven't read the print version.
Any additional comments?
I listened to all three books of the Fear Saga (via Audible) within three weeks. I got hooked instantly from the start of Book 1 "Fear The Sky". Stephen Moss' epic tale got me transfixed and addicted to the unfolding saga, as it stretched massively across the two worlds and their inevitable collision. The story is complex--its machinations, size, depth and premise--all told with a seeming ease by the author and his portrayal of the various characters, story lines, events, momentum, intervening conflict on earth and ultimately the cosmic battle. They're really hard to let go of once you start for the story carries with it all the ingredients of a great sci-fi, political-military drama-thriller. The key characters—the good, bad, their strengths and flaws, are well thought-out, with some roles--although quite easy to relate to at the start, not immune to dramatic twists and surprises that can set you off reeling and even question your own ethical stance. I feel (fear) for the impending doom of humanity, even with the ten-year timeline--the hectic pace of building AI-assisted defence systems and weaponry, amidst petty rivalries, real agent enemies, sabotage, political posturing--paling against the scale of the inbound genocidal alien armada. Fascinating. Really love it!

A great book but too many elements
Allot of enthusiasm and creativity goes into the finalie of this trilogy. Its a really enjoyable story.
I do however think that this book took on too much of the story. The book is tasked with bringing all the elements of the human defence together, politics of various factions on earth, a coup d'état, subterfuge in the invading fleet, the invasion itself and the aftermath all which have the the requisite world building and character development needed to tell a good story.
