The Flying Warlord

Rating:
Summary: Great, Great, Great. A must read for any Sci-Fi buff.
Review: This was one of my first Sci-Fi books and have been hooked ever since. Leo Frankowski is a Genius and a true male.

Rating:
Summary: Entertaining, but weakest of the series
Review: Worth reading, but dramaticly weaker than the previous 3 in the series (which were delightful!).

The last 1/4 of the book isn't even story, more like a set of authors notes created to help him map out the future world.

There are several outright flubs, such as the hints about how they shouldn't have bragged about East Gate being impervious (which goes nowhere). Such as the last 20 pilots all "crash" landing at once, and they all die except Lambert who is unharmed? Like what happened with the Duke? Why the sudden ending with all the mongols in one place? The entire "time is shifting" angle seems to be thrown in to justify a few random changes in events (almost like the author wanted it both ways in one particular case), but goes nowhere. Weak.
