Great communications with Seller!!!

Finally receieved this book after 3 weeks.. Seller uses different locations to send items from and the one the seller used for this item did not get here. HOWEVER, The Seller did work with me and kept constant communications with me and I did receive the book in perfect condition! I would purchase from this seller again.. Thank you.

surprisingly good

I received this book as one of a group purchase as I wanted the other three in the bundle, I only read it as I was short of material, I'd already passed up the previous book by "Scotty", after all he's only an actor what does he know about writing.Well he knows how to (co)write a damn good SFF novel thats what. Interesting characters in exciting situations, this book is good!Ive since bought the first in the series and i am waiting for the third to come out (soon).Enjoy.

Very enjoyable reading, a good sequel to, ?The Rising.?

I give this book my highest accolade: Good enough to be a David Weber novel. It reads a lot like a William Keith novel and anyone who likes the Wing Commander series would really enjoy this one. The main character, Peter Raeder, is a brave and compassionate leader who always wins, very much like Honor Harrington in the David Weber series. I enjoyed the characters. Sterling has proven himself to be an excellent scifi writer, but in collaboration with Doonhan, his novels are really ENJOYABLE. It's hard to tell what the influence of each author is in a novel, but they make a great team and I hope they collaborate on many more novels. I'd order the next book in the series right now if I could.
