The New Terran Empire is still trying to recover from the Ca’cadasan strike that left over three hundred million dead and ripped the heart out of the ship production of Central Docks.
The Donut, the huge station in orbit around the Supersystem black hole, was almost destroyed in that strike, and its defenses have been strengthened considerably.
That Caca strike didn’t do all they had wanted, but it had hurt the Empire’s war making capabilities.
The Ca’cadasans are at it again, with a two-pronged attack on the Empire. Sean has to decide, and quickly, how his fleet is to counter this move. The fleet, short of resources, could use the almost thousand ships destroyed and damaged in the enemy strike. And Sean would give his soul to get his heir, killed in the Caca strike, back. The lure of changing time, something he learns is very possible, beckons. Despite the warning that time travel was the undoing of the Ancients who had once ruled his sector of space. But the Ancients are not extinct, and they will do whatever they can to prevent the humans from disrupting the time stream and destroying their own race. Even if it means destroying the one weapon the humans have that might win their war of extermination against the Ca’cadasan Empire. They will try to prevent the Time Strike with their last resources, with their lives.
??? The saga continues, as massive Empires war with each other across thousands of light years of space.

Great series, and this was a good book that appears to be hinting towards a positive resolution in the near future.Emperor Sean seems a bit out of character in making a pretty critical error. I can only assume the author is leveraging the major emotional struggle due to the loss of their son--that might explain it. Fortunately, lessons are learned.
SPOILER ALERT
What I liked most:
1 - The human technology advantage is finally starting to show results
2 - There were no silly cases of the Caca's suddenly duplicating our technology (like in the last couple novels).
3 - Cool to see a couple instances where we can see Ancient technology shine (Tier VIII ships, wow!). I'm assuming they are the same ancients, but we could have a couple sets, not sure.
4 - This book seems to set us up for finally turning the war into an offensive.
5 - I liked the tie-in with the alternate universe project.
What I disliked:
1 - No real mention of the AI machine war, other than vague references to needs for ships for other reasons. I don't mind two parallel series, but its seems there could be some cross-over.
2 - Not sure I cared for the setting lose of the alternate-universe monster.
3 - The epilogue didn't address the naval officer released by the ancients. It also didn't mention the alternate-universe monster incident. Is it hidden? How do they explain the elimination of the 190 ship Caca fleet?
4 - Maybe I missed something, but I would have liked to have some kind of status no the fleet sent to attack the Caca captal.
Overall, I still consider this my favorite space-opera epic war series. Great stuff.

Exodus Empires at War Book 12 Time Strike eBook Doug Dandridge Reviews
Sean goes a little crazy, along with Jennifer as the war continues. Old faces and new tech continue the advances on the Ca'Cas. The saga gets more convoluted as new allies come forward and old enemies rise up. Great read! I recommend reading from the start of the series.
This is good SF and going strong. The writing is well done and kudos to the quotes at beginning of chapters, which are consistent with the storyline and the chapter as opposed to some authors just throwing them in to fill space.
Many good twists and deep extended plots keeping the reader glued to each page.
I would recommend this book to the serious SF reader.
As I have read and commented about the previous eleven books in this series, I find it hard to come up with new or more complementing words for this book. It is science fiction at its best! As with the past this book leaves many unanswered questions and I am sure they will be answered in the future. I hope the wait is not too long for the next edition.
Once I started this became a page turner. (The only problem with finishing the book is... gee now I have to wait for the next one! ) Our familiar characters are there, perhaps with a few more flaws showing. The battles are a lot more fast paced than the earlier books. I would have to say it's more from the admiral's points of view and less of the fighting soldier or common fleet personal. The numbers of ships and systems is staggering to keep track of but, Mr. Dandridge does keep it clearly on track.
The story continues better than ever. You see heros cracking under the stress and glimpses of how the war for survival is influencing everyone including the Cacas.
I was uncertain of the time travel storyline introduced in Book 11. However, I enjoyed how it was handled here. I can understand the motivation and though I am not a huge fan of Sean being "weak," I do enjoy seeing that he is not perfect and doing the best he can. I liked the affirmation in the end that his leadership is what is best for the Empire.
I look forward to seeing how events in this book will influence events in the Bolthole series and future events on the Second Front. I will very much look forward to the change likely coming for the Caca.
Another great book in the series.
Wow! This was a quick read. Probably because it was very exciting. In this one, we’re mostly seeing the New Terrain Empire fighting off a major offensive from the Ca’cadasans. After the Ca’cas devastating strike against several of our key strategic locations, the New Terrains are just barely starting to recover. The New Terrain Empire lost a lot of ships when the Central Docks were almost destroyed. Many of those ships were in for repairs along with others that were brand new or almost finished. Repairs were underway at the capital as well as at the Donut. Fortunately, the Donut is repairable and can continue making wormholes as before.
Still, the loss of the heir to the Throne, Augustine, has put the royal family in a terrible, but understandable mood. While we know the tiny baby wasn’t killed, we don’t know who did it or why. In this book, that all becomes clearly apparent. And yes, it involves Time Travel!
Time travel has been eluded to in previous books, but it’s also brought up the disappearance of a previous ancient civilization that was thought to have been very advanced. They too had reached a point where time travel was something they were tinkering with when suddenly their civilization ceased to exist. It was thought that messing with time travel and the timeline was the cause of that civilizations demise and any effort to develop something along these lines were met with skepticism. Still, one New Terrain scientist had written papers about developing a time travel method, but he was dismissed from his position and thought insane.
So, if one of Emperor Sean’s subjects does come up with a method of going back in time, will he or should he even use it? It could save billions of his subjects and reverse the recent devastation that his home world had just experienced. And secondly, would his military leaders even let him tinker with time. Many were much older than Sean and had lived with the stories of how forbidden it was to mess with time travel that they just might have to do something if this young emperor got off on the wrong track.
But, now the Ca’cas were attacking again on three different fronts. We just barely enough ships to manage one fight, the other areas were required to conducting holding and delaying tactics until more ships could be brought to them. With the judicious use of wormholes, these battle groups could do the job, but they needed to be reinforced almost immediately. So now all the new technology the New Terrains have developed gets put to the test.
The Ca’cas Empire is having it’s own problems. Their Emperor is one of the smartest to sit on the throne and he knows how to manage his fleets. Yet, his ideas of leaving battles to fight another day goes counter to the Ca’cadasan military philosophy. Some of his Generals are beginning to question his leadership; not directly to his face, but it’s certainly something they are not comfortable with. The Ca’cadasan military always operates on the premise of attack until the enemy is destroyed or you have nothing left to fight with. What would happen if this current major offensive were to stall and the Ca’cas started incurring major losses. Would the Emperor have the smarts to withdraw his fleets and would his military leaders even let him? Interesting!
I do not believe the next book has been written yet, but I can assure you it will be forthcoming. This war is a long way from being over. Things are changing and in some big ways, but the New Terrains have a long way to go. Very interesting story and with this book, back to being exciting.
Great series, and this was a good book that appears to be hinting towards a positive resolution in the near future.
