Summary: My Father has enjoyed Volume l Part l in audio
Review: I am desperately trying to find Volume 2 in audio for him. He has a cataract that has been inoperable for some time and he thoroughly enjoyed the first part of this series, but I cannot find the second part and I do not know if it was even issued in audio. Could someone please help?

Summary: Exciting, suspenseful, but an eerie feeling of deja vu
Review: I enjoyed this book, like all of Griffin's war and soldier's stories, immensely. Nevertheless, there is a nagging feeling that we have met these people before. At least partially, the characters seem to be very similar in background and motivation from the "Corps" series, which all fans of Griffin hope will be continued (PLEASE!). Or is it the other way around? Where the characters in "Corps" derived from this book? With this continuous changing of pseudonyms, who can tell? But I don't want to nag, I love Griffin's books!

Summary: Pure W.E.B. from front to back.
Review: I have read all of Griffins books. His "Brotherhood of war" series is still my favorite,followed by "The Corps". This series maybe a re-release,but it is still pure W.E.B.. Sure the players appear the same. Thats what makes it good. You know that you are reading Griffin. The money angle of the actors is great and different. Please another in " Badge of Honor" series. As with all of Griffins books,I can't put them down until I close the back cover.

Summary: Thrill a minute
Review: I have read everything W.E.B. Griffin has published. I must say that I am disappointed in his publisher for re-releasing old books as if they were new. This is a very good tale of how things may have been leading up to Pearl Harbor. The only negative thing I have to say about it is it sounds vary familiar. I have stated in the past and will do so again, Mr. Griffin needs to expand his basic character base. We seem to always have the rich kid, the poor kid, and the wealthy parents and in-laws. I want to read about two guys that don't have a trust fund. THis book is worth reading if you are a fan of Griffin

Summary: Awsome as Always
Review: I have read most of the WWII books by Mr. Griffin and I will have to say that this is a wonderful book full of the many things I enjoy. I love the historical accuracy of his novels. Also, as a young woman I love the way that he portrays the ladies in his novels, not as mousy stay at home women who just sit and worry, but as strong women who know what they want.

Summary: OUTSTANDING AS ALL OF HIS BOOKS ARE
Review: I just finished Last Heros and cant wait for the Secret Warriors. I have all of Griffins books excep for The Witness; The Investigators; The secret Warriors; and In Dangers Path. He is the Best Writer of all time as far as I am concerned.I did not know that he had written under so many names.I look forward to each new book.

Summary: Action seems just over the horizon and then plumments.
Review: I like WEB Griffin. No other author recognizes fully the fighting man of war as this one does. I enjoyed this book. He makes characters come alive and it is the characters that kept the story moving. Suspense built toward what should have been fine action and, then....it seemed that the action portion was summed up in a paragraph and we moved back to the characters. That being said; the book is well worth reading and I, for one, will follow the series just to find out how they resolve the cover story of one of the protagonists that he was a coward who had to be thrown out of the Flying Tigers. WEB Griffin (Alex Baldwin) or whoever you are... My respects for taking care of the military members. I give this one 3 stars in comparison to most of his 4 star books.

Summary: Great story line and characters
Review: I love to read W.E.B. Griffin's series. They are full of drama, suspense, and mystery. I also find some of the technical aspects very interesting even though I sometimes find them difficult to follow. The story lines make up for that difficulty. Being a registered nurse, I was reading this story and came upon either the result of poor research or a printing error. In the paper back, when the doctor is giving Canidy the sedative in the black bag and information on how to administer the sedative, the dosage printed is 300 cc. There is not a syring for a human being large enough to hold that much. That is a littel more than the size of a pint of milk. A human cannot tolerate an injection of more than the amount of a teaspoon of liquid. No way could a human take a 300 or 500 cc injection. The muscle could not stand it. I read and re-read this passage several time to make sure I read it correctly. I would miss any technical errors, but to this RN, this statement was a brick in the face. Otherwise, the book was quite difficult to put down.

Summary: A lot about nothing - you keep reading hoping for action.
Review: I must agree with the reader from Slidell, LA. This book is not at all like prior Griffin novels. There was little to no action, intrigue, or suspense. I guess that there are more books coming in this series. There must be as this one never had much going for it or even an ending. After reading most if not all of his prior works, this was a great disappointment.

Rating:
Summary: Great Work....
Review: I started reading and was skeptical, then by the time I was finished I was wishing I was Canidy.. Great Job, can't wait to start on next book.
