Rating:  Summary: Worth every penny Review: Although Pardoe isn't as good of an author as Micheal Stackpole, he does a fine job weaving an entertaining story that will sate Battletech fans lust for more to read.
Rating:  Summary: Best BattleTech Novel Yet Review: Angela Bekker a Ristar from Clan Ghost Bear, is order by the Khan to form a trinary to defend the front line world of Toffin. With such inadequate defenses on such an important world, the Wolf Clan takes the opportunity and launches an assault. With an elite cluster of top notch assault `Mechs, the Angela and her green unit is out classed in technology and experience. This book was written with fantastic skill and detail. Only the most experienced writers such as Michael Stackpole and Carl Deuker. Every battle is described so well that I felt the temperature rise as the Wolves were surrounded by the horrific cane fire. The plot twists and turns and you never know what is going to happen next. If you're in need of some serious entertainment (for example you've beaten all your Xbox games) then this book is exactly what you want.

Rating:  Summary: Best BattleTech Novel Yet Review: Angela Bekker, a skilled 'Mech Warrior from Clan Ghost Bear is chosen by the Khan to form a new Trinary to protect the front-line world of Toffen. By almost anyone's standards a single Trinary is an insufficient amount of forces to defend such an important planet. Therefore, Toffen is seen as a ripe target by Clan Wolf who sends an entire Cluster to take the world. Now Angela and her green unit must repel the attack of one of Clan Wolf's most skilled and experienced group of warriors. This book is by far the best BattleTech novel I have ever read. From start to finish it is filled with excitement. Pardoe describes everything in such detail that it makes seem like you're actually out on the battlefield witnessing the events in the book. This is a must-read book for anyone even remotely interested in the BattleTech novels.
Rating:  Summary: Decent until the End(ing) Review: Being brutally honest I can't rate this among the better of BTnovels. If I could I would give it 3 and a half stars... ...Anyway,the story is conventional. Outnumbered good guys fight bad guys and eventually pull through by their wits. It's been done so many times in BT novels it's getting seriously stale. At least Blaine did it better than many other authors. The book is a rather good read though and gives interesting insights into Ghost Bear life. At this point I might have given the novel 4 stars. But, but, there are some itsy bitsy mistakes only a fanatical Ghost Bear supporter could spot. And then there's the big one I had dreaded seeing...To recap: Unoriginal but fairly well written novel with a disappointing ending. END

Rating:  Summary: Great book!!! Review: Blain Lee Pardoe is a great author! The first battletech book i read was Blain Lee Pardoe's "Impetus of war" after i read that book i was hooked, and i became a battletech fan. Roar of Honor is a great book too! There are so many different characters in the book to keep the book interesting! I espicially like Blaine Lee's brief description of the Clan Ghost Bear's history after the Invasion, but he could go into little more about other clans(like how hell's horses got a place in inner sphere???) Dirk Radick's character is too hardcore, but i like how angela Bekker make him angry!!! This is a great book buy it! but i also recommand Blaine's other books like IMPETUS OF WAR!

Rating:  Summary: Finally! Review: Blaine Lee Pardoe has been my favorite Battletech author since I started reading the series several years ago, and I'd been waiting for a new book by him since Exodus Road. Roar of Pride comes in strong with all the force Pardoe fans should expect. This book packs a punch that's been missing from some of the more recent Battletech novels. The characters are great, especially the way Mechwarriors Bethany and Gregori constantly try to get to each other. If you like Battletech, you will not be disappointed.
Rating:  Summary: Roar of honor review Review: Blaine Lee Parpoe has done it again. Every time you see a novel writen by him, buy it. Roar of Honor has a unique stoy line with an interesting twist. It catches attention from the first page and continues to do so until the end. The character involved all have well defined characteristics, and Blaine Lee added some homour with the rivalries between them.
