A Remarkable First Read

A most riveting read! The author got some of the military stuff wrong, and there were some syntax errors that slipped through, but they didn’t detract from the book. Lots of realistic action throughout the 600 pages that kept me involved to the very end. Bravo Zulu to you!

How the Marines in space get it done

I have read and followed the US Marines since I was a little boy. In reading this book I felt the same compelling spirit of these marines, from the enlisted men and women to the officers. I couldn’t just put it down, I had to keep reading. I cannot express how much I enjoyed this book. It grabs you and puts you in the heat of combat and the emotions of overcoming the odds that are hallmarks of any military service. I can’t wait to read the next book.

Never complain ,

Like a good war movie

Fun to read, hard to put down. Like a good old war movie with a space age twist. Going to download the next book right away.
