Story
Unlike other branches of the armed services, the Navy draws its police force from the ranks as temporary duty - Shore Patrol. In this funny, bawdy, moving audiobook set during the height of the Vietnam War, two career sailors in transit in Norfolk, Virginia - Billy "Bad-Ass" Buddusky and Mule Mulhall - are assigned to escort 18-year-old Larry Meadows from Norfolk to the brig in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, where he is to serve an eight-year sentence for petty theft. It's good duty, until the two old salts realize the injustice of the sentence and are oddly affected by the naive innocence of their young prisoner.

Amaizing Until the End
Y. Blak Moore is a great writer. But the ending of The Apostles failed me. There was this build up to what felt like should have been a great climax and an amazing ending. Rather, it was a great build up, a subpar climax, and a letdown of an ending. I get the concept of stories like this rarely have happy endings. But, the story just…kind of…ended. And that is it. The story ends. It felt like he got tired of writing the story and just wrapped it all up to move on. Characters disappeared without a word or clue. Some characters were very sporadic and seemingly pointless. With all that, I still give the book four stars! Worth all that and more. I love his writings.
