I read the first two in the series a couple of years ago. That was a mistake. The entire series should be read in a much shorter time. This book references much of what happens in the previous books, but without them, it's a little minimal.

All in all, a good book. The dog on the front is George, the intelligent and talking dog. He's a fun character to follow. He's the one with an attitude and mouth that has difficulty keeping shut when it should (all the more fun for us).

The hero of the book, Mark, is an easy going guy that "grows up" ans his galactic experiences expand. It's both fun and thought provoking.

This was an good read, a lot better than the second book in the trilogy but not quite as interesting as the first book. George and company face various challenges and triumph and attain their goals but discover in the process that maybe they already had what they were looking for.
