German Review on GosuReviews 2.5* You would think that the title "The Long War" promises a bit of suspense, wrong! The Long War starts where the first book ended in terms of plot and characters, very flat. You don't have any connections to the protagonists and the story is on the sidelines, while Pratchett and Baxter do more worldbuilding... as you will see the title is I guess ironic :) I would only recommend if you absolutely loved book one, else don't waste your time. You don't even get a lot of answers to questions you had from book one. The only thing making it a bit more interesting are the few new life forms and the interactions with them, but definitely not enough to carry this book.
