DNF at 46%. I really wanted to like this. I really like the characters and I was interested in a few of their backstories and how they would continue on their pilot careers. The audiobook even has really good music and sound effects. And the descriptions of dog fights and the technology is awesome. But there are just SO MANY characters. We don't really follow one person or even one side of the fight. This book is narratively speaking all over the place. I had a hard time following who was who and what was going on. And the book didn't stay with the characters and plots I was actually interested in for very long before jumping to some new POV or some random characters plot. I might try out something else by this author or maybe a Star Wars book that just focuses on ONE character. So sad to DNF this one.
