ColSec Rebellion is a fast-paced work that is exciting and fun to read. The characters, while not drawn in great depth, are engaging and believable.

The struggle against evil and tyranny, personified by the ColSec organization, is an important theme here, as it is in many works of Western literature. Hill writes in a style that reads quickly, with many colorful action verbs and skillful descriptions of settings and high-tech gadgetry. He displays humor through the characters and their relationships. Jeko and Heleth, for example, trade a number of friendly insults throughout the story, and Jeko occasionally makes ironic remarks on the heroes' situation.
