Stark's Crusade

Rating:
Summary: A pleasant story
Review: A good friend loaned me the book. At first I didn't plan to read it. The cover and comments on the back of the book indicated it was just one more book with a focus on lots of fighting. I ended up being pleasantly surprised.

This is the third and final book in a series about some Americans up on the moon. Stark leads the military and is working with American colonists. Some nasty things have been happening to them. There is lots of excitement. There is lots, and lots of fighting. We have a sneak raid, a double cross, a threat from a new deadly weapon, and an internal rebellion.

In some ways this book is similar to the Moon is a Harsh Mistress, but much more emphasis on lots of fighting, with less details about the politics and other issues of a colony on the moon.

Summary: WOW! Hemry sure can write a rip-roarin' good yarn!
Review: I got this book in the mail earlier today, at about, oh, 2:45 in the afternoon. It's 9:51 right now. Minus a few hours of work I had to do, I read the whole book straight through. Nonstop. I couldn't stop! I'm just glad I didn't end up losing any sleep!

Stark's Crusade is a fitting end to the trilogy. I don't know what more I can say, honestly! It was a great book. If you've read the other two books in the series, you *MUST* read this one. If you haven't read the other two, then GET THEM and READ THEM! SOON!

But make sure you have plenty of free time to do that in.

Summary: Hemry has what it takes to keep you glued!
Review: I started with Stark's War, chheezy cover art and all. The story itself kept my nose glued to the book all evening. I couldn't put it down if I tried. The Third one was a fitting end to the trilogy. The storyline and plot were good, and Hemry gave his characters flesh and personality. It was more enjoyable than Tom Clancy. I am really sorry to see it end.

Summary: The "lieutenant"?
Review: Stark is a character that is tough to forget. I read this series about one year ago and was just checking for an update to see if Stark would fight again. (See, I can't forget him).
His unswerving sense of ethics and ability to keep his troops together is reminiscient of L. Ron Hubbard's Lieutenant in Final Blackout. Great characterization and a fascinating story. I will read anything that comes out by John Hemry in the future.
