Another Man-Slut, Another Unimaginative Military Fantasy

I’m sorry. I really like BV Larson but this penchant for man-pig main characters is getting so old. I usually just skip through the random and gratuitous sex, and to my shame, overlook the dehumanizing of women, because the stories are so good otherwise. This probably puts me in a small minority of men, but I have become hesitant to purchase (and quick to return) many of his new books and even series for just this reason. The formula is stale and it’s hard to root for a main character that is a legend in his own mind and basically a rapacious swamp sow.

Way too short

Disappointed with how short the book is for the price. It’s almost like he wrote one book and split it into two books for more money. Story was ok but too short.

Nice new story line

I like it.
A new angle that is closer to our present reality.
I did order the second book
As always Boyett excels

Good book worth a credit

This is a pretty good book . Wish it was longer but it was worth the credit . I am definitely getting book two .

Another great book from BV

I can't wait for the next in this series. BV and Mark make a great team.
