The Complete Independence Day Omnibus

This omnibus was a mixed bag for me: the first book (Independence Day), especially compared to the cinematic film, seemed sparse and somewhat lacking in the expository content I had hoped to find. The next book (Silent Zone, back story of Dr. Brackish Okun) seemed better, if only because it contained new information (at least new to me) and explored the Dr. Okun character in some detail. Finally, the third book (War in the Desert) was the best of the three, with well-developed characters and lots of action; a very suitable companion piece to the rest of the stories.
