Summary: Undaunted
Review: Sorry there is not a zero stars selection. The reader of this book has to be dauntless to waste time reading this drivel. My grade school reading "I see Spot" was deeper and better written. His style (?) is like: "My mother asked me to go to the store. I went to the store. I bought a loaf of bread. My mother made sandwiches. I ate one." Wow is that exciting or what! And the Publishers should get a new proof reader. There was an error on almost every page. I got tired of marking up the book. The real problem is that I also bought the second and third Stan Turner stories (?). I guess I'll just throw them away unless I can find somebody stupid enough to buy them from me. I read about 100 books a year and this is the worst I have ever read. I post this as anonymously only to avoid reprecussions.

Summary: Totally engrossing !
Review: This is the first William Manchee book I have read but will not be the last. The story centers around Stan Turner, a law student who must enlist in the marines so as to hopefully prevent being sent to Vietnam. When he is accused of murder, his friends leap into action to prove his innocence. The ending was totally unexpected and as such gave the book much more of a thrill. It is a book you will not be able to put down.

Summary: Undaunted
Review: UNDAUNTED is the first Stan Turner Mystery followed by the second, BRASH ENDEAVOR and the third, SECOND CHAIR. Stan decides at a very early age that he wants to be a lawyer, but while he is at the Ventura county fair Stan and his friend Steve wanted to have their future read by a Univac Computer which analyzes a persons handwriting and tells their the future. Stan's card came back saying. `STRUGGLING IN A HOSTILE WORLD, PURSUING YOUR DESTINY, YOU WILL STAND RESOLUTE AGAINST ADVERSITY, UNDAUNTED' Stan did not understand the meaning then, but as he became an adult, he would understand all to well. While Stan was at UCLA he met Rebekah whom he loves very much, they are married Oct 18, 1968. On the way to getting a law degree, things get rough for Stan. The Army drafts him in 1970; to avoid the Army he signs with the Marines. While in boot camp, he unwittingly befriends a serial killer and soon finds himself charged with the murder of his drill sergeant. Stan desperately searches for the real killer. Helping him is nurse Rita Andrews, who wants Stan for herself, and Virginia Stone, a journalist looking for a story. Undaunted is a sensual chiller, involving white supremacists, a serial killer, and the Marines all rolled up into a startling package that will keep you clinging to every word. Undaunted proves it to me; William Manchee is a master at story telling. He has a way of spinning a tale that will leave you breathless every time.
