The series uses this as a point of tension and plot development, going so far as to alter humanity at the genetic level. There are aliens who do not see humanity as an asset, however, and would rather conquer them. As a result, he consolidates wealth and power in an attempt to better mankind’s standing within the galaxy. He ends up monopolizing this product and selling it at a high price to the aliens. After this occurs, Tyler Vernon, previously a webcomic artist, finds out that the aliens really like one product Earth has to offer. This first trilogy follows humanity as an alien race makes contact and extends to Earth the chance to be part of their portal network. However, the Troy Rising trilogy changed my perspective on him. Truth be told, I found him to be an entertaining writer, but not necessarily one of the greats in science fiction. I have previously reviewed John Ringo’s work, specifically his second Posleen War book, Gust Front. Live Free or Die, the first book in the series infused with plenty of old-fashioned two-fisted can-do attitude, a heavy dose of science, and occasional bursts of dry humor.
Troy Rising is a book in three parts- Live Free or Die being the first part-detailing the freeing of Earth from alien conquerors, the first steps into space using off-world technologies and the creation of Troy, a thousand-trillion-ton battle station designed to secure the Solar System.
And he has bigger plans than just getting rid of the Horvath. A hero unwilling to back down to alien or human governments, unwilling to live in slavery, and with enough hubris, if not stature, to think he can win. Live Free or Die To free the world from the grip of the Horvath is going to take an unlikely hero. With their control of the orbitals, there's no way to win and Earth's governments have accepted the status quo.
Since then, they've held Terra as their own personal fiefdom. Who Controls the Orbitals, Controls the World When the Horvath came through, they announced their ownership of us by dropping rocks on three cities and gutting them. The first aliens to come through, the Glatun, turned out to be peaceful traders, and the world breathed a sigh of relief. Book Synopsis Will the People of Earth Bow Down to Alien Overlords-or Will They Fight Back? First Contact Was Friendly When aliens trundled a gate to other worlds into the Solar System, the world reacted with awe, hope, and fear.
