Taylor Anderson, Maelstrom
Roc (2009) ISBN: 978-0-451-46253-4
Score: 2

Third book of the Destroyermen series, now with precocious aristocrat girls. This works both as a conclusion to a trilogy and as a transition point in a longer series (the author is already working on another book with these characters).

Next Book: Jim Butcher, Turn Coat

Taylor Anderson, Crusade
Roc (2008) ISBN: 978-0-451-46230-5
Score: 2

Second book of the Destroyermen trilogy, in which the plucky Americans continue to slaughter hordes of baby-eating dinosaurs. The conflict escalates and we get three POV characters from the other side[s], but while one of those was sympathetic, the enemies as a whole remain Eeevul (another POV was the baby eater).

Next Book: Lawrence Watt-Evans, The Turtle Moves!

Taylor Anderson, Into the Storm
Roc (2008) ISBN: 978-0-451-46207-7
Score: 2

Start of the alt-hist Destroyermen trilogy, in which a couple ships fighting in WW2 suddenly find themselves on a parallel Earth where the dinosaurs never went extinct (this is NOT a time travel novel, despite what the Library of Congress says). People who don't like spoilers should avoid the maps in the front of the book; the Author's Note at the end has far fewer spoilers (basically the first chapter).

Next Book: Frances Hardinge, Well Witched
