Summary: Entertaining, but there are a few problems...
Review: I am an avid Starfist saga follower, and that will continue, but I thought Startfist 7 was a little weak. The cliffhanger ending needed some more beefing up (Gunny Bass put himself in a dangerous situation without following some simple combat rules he knows very well). Also, many Skinks are flashed (killed), but the 34th FIST never once recovered any of the Skink's acid weapons for analysis. The weapons didn't flash and disappear when the Skinks did, did they? No, of course not! Recovering an acid weapon and analyzing it to develop a defense against it would be the first thing I'd do.Worth reading to keep the series alive, but I hope Dan Cragg reads this review and takes steps to improve plot quality...

Summary: 34th FIST on deployment
Review: I really enjoyed the book. Although, I will have to wait for the next book to conclude my opinion on this book. The cliffhanger is kind of weird since the whole story of the book doesn't seem to end. Also, for the first time, the authors tried to do more than one storyline and it feels kind of weird. One of the storyline brings nothing to the actual story or the 34th FIST Marine. This could explain on why they did not conclude the story since they had already too much. Overall, it is still a good StarFist book. Different from the previous one but this is what bring the joy in reading :o)

Summary: Another Delight from Sherman and Cragg!!!
Review: I've enjoyed every book in this series. Just marvelous fun. Starfist 7 not only continues the adventures of heroes we've come to know and care deeply about, but it further deepens the characters, which is very hard to do after so many books. And, as always, the authors' knowledge of fighting men--in any time and place--is vividly on display. No armchair fantasist could portray combat, present or future, as well as these two deeply experienced men have done. Very, very good reading. And far more resonance than most science fiction works--really, this has become a classic series. Take a break from the grind and read this delightful book.

Summary: Go Sherman and Cragg!!!,
Review: In this book the 34th is up agienst their old foes from Society 437. They take casualties but then their problems are just begining. A band of terrorists(Have I read this somewhere before) go to earth on a mission and it is up to the marines to stop them. In this case I think the authors draw an interesting parelle. Christian fanatisim can be just as deadly as the islamic kind(Read the book to see what I mean)

Summary: Not quite up to others
Review: More of a 2 1/2 I enjoyed this book, but did not think it was up to the previous in the series. The main problem was that it was disjointed in its plotting and pace. It felt like they had the basic book together and then created a separate plot line (or two) and wedged it in there. It broke up the main story and created a lack of cohesion that was bothersome. Sherman and Cragg have pulled off parallel plots before with great success, so I know they can do it. They just seemed all over the place in this one. (Minor spoiler alert)This is also the first book where the major campaign was not completed. I'm not adverse to cliffhangers per se, but there wasn't really any true build up and the termination seemed arbitrary. I still loved the characters and the writing itself is as exciting as usual. I hope these fine authors can get back on a more cohesive track with the next volume.

Summary: Action Packed
Review: The book is a great return to the good old days of Starfist action. Its a great mix of the small but intense action of Gunny Bass and his 3rd platoon on Elneal (Book One) and the Campaign agiasnt Sy. Cyr's corporate armies (book three.) Easily this is the best book of them all yet.

Summary: Action Packed
Review: The book was very well written. Maybe even better than the one before! There were a few typos with who did what in what book. And the ending! That is a really well done cliffhanger! I would have liked to have seen more of Dean but I like the majority of the characters and I liked the introduction of the new characters!
