Review:As I've been waiting for this book a long time, I must say, not up to Weber's best or even his middle level.
Having said that, I realize that this is half a book, since the publisher decreed books have to be under a certain length. But still no real action. Just umpteen pages of review and setup, but no meat to this book.
Action slow and incomplete, no surprises, no nothing. Blow up the SLN Fleet, ho humm another day. What everyone expects happens.

Review:I was rereading this book looking forward to seeing old friends. However, the detailed descriptions on procedures and equipment sometimes get in the way of the action sequences. All in all, a good read. Read more
Review:As much as I enjoy the Manticore series it can descend into long technical explanations. This book was full of great characters and a good well paced story. Much enjoyed, I can’t wait for the next one. Read more
Review:How to rate A Call To Arms? This is the second of the Manticore Rising series, which takes place several centuries before the Honor series. This Manticore is a poor, out of the way system recovering from a plague. The Royal Navy is a neglected, understrength political football.

Review:Any one remember the little old lady looking at her hamburger and asking where's the BEEF? There was another story about the restaurant manager asking a patron. How did you find your Streak sir? With that the gentleman said well I just picked up the pickle and their it was.
So I might say Steak=Honor=Beef. So gimmie da BEEF.

Review:I think my heart stopped a few times while reading this book. I consumed it in less than a day, because I honestly was drawn to the lives of Joaquin, Grace and Maya.
They each tell the story in alternating chapters, yet it flows together so smoothly, the concept of them being family seems right from the very beginning.
Each sibling is dealing with confronting how their past (both mistakes they've made and the fact that they were given up by their biological mother) meshes with thei... Read more
Review:The Basics:
On the night of a Christmas Eve blizzard, Jubilee is trapped in a strange town after her parents’ arrest, Tobin and his two best friends embark on a quest for a Waffle House full of cheerleaders, and Addie is determined to prove her capacity for selflessness at least to her friends, if not to the ex she can’t let go. The three searches for love, each written by a different rightly renowned YA author, interlock and collide amid holiday miracles.
The Downside:

Review:If you read this collection of short stories in order to find out behind the scenes gossip about the many movies in which Tom Hanks has acted, or the celebrities he has known,or secret insights into the mind of one of our most successful actors, you will be disappointed. There is nothing in this collection which will change your perception of Tom Hanks one bit – the stories match his screen persona like a tuxedo tailored for Oscar night.
Most of the stories are harmless, pleasant tales o... Read more
