| Ok. Lets be serious, now. I am a 15 year old male, but don't immediatley establish a steryotype. Sure, my spelling may not be stellar, but I'd like to think myself an accomplished reader, and I've particularly enjoyed the field of Military Sci-Fi. Ian Douglas has acheived my respect and admiration for his accurate potrayal of Warfare in space (hey, it sounded good!) Rick Shelly is a clown in the prestigious offices of literature. Hell, I'm suprised they let him in the lobby. He knows combat, and can write combat, but little more. The charactars (expecially the main one) are cardboard, static, and phony. Their moves are predictable, their thinking one-track. Surely you have better things to do than read trash books like these. |
