Summary: Another great one!
Review: This is one of my favorite series and I always eagerly await the next book. The authors do an excellent job of capturing the camraderie and esprit de corps that vets such as myself fondly remember. Additionally, the science of the series is logical and well thought out. The combat descriptions are intense and vivid. I also love the subtle humor: a 25th century religious leader named Bishop Ralphy Bruce Preachintent who wears a pompador wig and a sharkskin suit! If you are looking for a fun and intense book that makes you cheer for the good guys and rejoice when the bad guys get their just reward, this is it. Plus, you might gain an appreciation for those who choose to put on a military uniform. Keep 'em coming Messrs. Sherman & Cragg!

Summary: Something new with each book of the series
Review: This is the sixth book of the series and it still brings something new to the 34th FIST. The storyline is much different that previous books but it still keeps you on the edge of your seat. On the opposite, there is always previous information coming from the previous books that is good to know while reading. It puts everything in perspective. Flashback from Elnear, Wandejhar, Society 436 and Diamunde reminds you of the previous missions for the marines. What's next?? I need to wait for number 7: Kingdom;s Swords...

Summary: Great follow up to Blood Contact and Technokill!
Review: When I first started the book I was hopeing that It might have a bit less to do with the previous 2 missions, in the previous 2 books, but in the end I didnt care! The book reveals many secrects, and has a very intense plot. I found mself more than halfway through it within the first week that I puchesed it! The plot does need a bit more consistancy in the begining, there are 3 "senarios" rather than the series norm of 2, throughout the book, but closer more twards the beging. I cant wait untill the next book comes! I and I too want some major war to break out. Overall this book has a great plt, nice ammount of action, and I gave it 4 stars!

Summary: This series just gets better and better!
Review: Wow! Most series frankly begin to play out after several books, but authors Cragg and Sherman seem to not only keep each other fresh, but to prod each other on to ever greater accomplishments. This novel can be read simply as an engaging, what-comes-next, wonderfully-thrilling sci-fi adventure--but it also offers a great deal of depth and demonstrates a wide range of knowledge about mankind's foibles and human possibilities. Likely, their status as military veterans has given Cragg and Sherman insights denied to those writers who never served, but, whatever the reason, I'm just knocked out by the freshness and quality of this novel--well into a series I hope will long endure. Great to see familiar characters continue to develop, and to meet new ones. Horrific, convincing fighting, with some timely moral warnings stirred in. And any book that manages to combine gladiatorial combat in the distance future and a mention of John Singleton Mosby, the "Gray Ghost" of the American Civil War can't help but intrigue. Not only worth reading, but worth keeping on the bookshelf to read again in the future!!!
