This was a pretty good book. The action flowed well, the characters were developed adequately and the logic was right. It was worth an afternoon's reading and if you enjoy military fiction I think you might like this book.

That was the good stuff. I read the kindle version and none of this might apply to the printed version but caveat emptor. There were misspellings in places such that meaning had to be taken from context. A word or two was left out completely. The word if was used in place of it in a number of places. Not terrible errors but enough to be annoying.

What really annoyed me though was that late in the book a small section was repeated word for word. The section was simply repeated immediately. It bespeaks a certain show more carelessness on the part of the author or (I think non-existent) editor. And one name switched between two spellings.

It seemed to me that the author had good writing, spelling and grammar skills and casually read over what he had written perhaps once and let it go at that. The book would have been better for good editing. I might have been upset if the book had not been free. show less
