In an attempt to change history and destroy the human race before it develops spaceflight, a Kanga batllefleet makes a desperate attempt to travel backwards in time, hotly pursued by a human fleet. They end up in the early 21st century where the sole survivor of the human fleet must attempt to cooperate with the primitive military forces of 2007 to destroy the surviving Kanga Cyborg (the "Troll" of the title) before it can destroy humanity.

Very good. I recommend this one to anyone who likes military SF or thrillers.

I liked this one so much that I have it in pback on my shelf. It was just as good when I reread it and plan on another reread sometime.
