Chapter By Chapter features me reading one chapter of the selected book at the time and reviewing it as if I were reviewing an episode of a TV show or an issue of a comic. There will be spoilers if you haven’t read to the point I have, and if you’ve read further I ask that you don’t spoil anything further into the book. Think of it as read-along book club.
In the last chapter of Robotech: Numerous factions seek the Homeward Bound for their own ends; some as a means of escape, some as a means of attack, and one in the foolish hope of pleasing the Invid as a gesture of peace with an enemy who has long since forgotten the word’s meaning. There is one common view however, that their best chance to rest the ship from Colonel Jonathan Wolff and the returning Robotech Expedition Force is Dana Sterling, whose only goal would be returning the survivors of the Robotech Masters to Tirol before they all die of homesickness and severed ties to the protoculture matrix and the triumvirate way of life they clinged to for so very long.
We have eighteen chapters plus the prologue and epilogue. That means we’re near the end of the book. I’ve already chosen the next Chapter By Chapter (though I have about six weeks to change my mind so I won’t reveal it yet). So far I’ve found the book…interesting. This political stuff never really interest me but knowing these characters and being curious how the heroes of the second war managed to escape the third one has kept me interested in this story. Is it enough to save it in my collection? Let’s get back in and get closer to finding out.
