Publisher's summary

Best-selling author John Ringo—a former member of the elite 82nd Airborne Division—and real-life rocket scientist Travis S. Taylor bring an unmatched level of authenticity to their action-packed military science fiction.

Claws That Catch is the fourth volume from their popular Looking Glass series. Humankind’s only interstellar craft, the Vorpal Blade is dispatched to investigate an ancient civilization that may have left vital technology behind. But when the crew finds more than they bargained for, they’ll have to scramble to survive.

Good expansion of the story but the singing…

It was nice to see the secret get out, our favorite characters get recognition, and follow their growth arc. It was even nice to see the new tech and the tongue-in-cheek anime effect, but please next time they’re singing just read the lyrics and mention the tune. We will look it up and get the idea.

This last of the series was the most fun.

Great story, VERY funny, excellent narration. I loved all the little nuance and references to other sci-fi, music and stories. Ganser was at his best on this one. He has an amazing number of voices and depth.

Decent new characters didnt do it for me.

I didnt like the command change in this one, but maybe i got to attached to the storyline of the last 2 books there is 3 previous in total but two of them went along a story line and a adventure i was looking for in this one but with a new ship came new command and the new commander held me back a little from enjoying the book as much as i should have. dont get me wrong its a good book and if your are enjoying the series keep going. i am looking forward to the next one.
