Valenzuela builds a robust scifi world and gripping plot that demands a immediate sequel! Engrossing, imaginative and intense, The Armor of God is a triumph of military science fiction that explores the personal and technological elements of the world, with a plot that ticks quickly along, drawing your deeper into the mystery of the world's lore. Good military science fictions allows a special focus on the training of characters, and much like the soldiers in John Scalzi's Old Man's War and Robert Heinlein's Starship Troopers, the Creux piloting characters of The Armor of God develop through their unique and well visualized training into the soldiers the world desperately needs in order to survive the Laani that threaten humanity with extinction.

The central character, Ezra Blanchard, carries the reader through his own education of the Laani threat, the secrets hidden within Zenith (the covert military institution housing battle machines called Creux) and along his personal journey to discover a destiny that was born into his blood.

Adventure and intrigue come fast in this well constructed tale that give homage to the classics of Neon Genesis Evangelion and Xenogears. Fans of the genre and sci-fi fans in general should not miss out on this instant hit.
