Scorpio
Set in the same universe as the “Frontlines” series, Kloos has wisely wrapped up the storylines from that first set of books and continued on with a new character that’s a survivor of the Lanky invasion and is holed up in an underground bunker on a far away planet with little to no hope for rescue or help from Earth. As like Kloos’s other books, this is so exceptionally good that I managed to read it all in just a single sitting, then went back through and reread a few parts to relish in the deliciousness of the story and setting. It felt like an eternity ago that I preordered this back in 2023, so I had completely forgotten about it until it popped up on my kindle on January 1st, 2024. I was in the middle of two other books at the time, so it had to wait a bit, but it was well worth both of the waits!
