Review:John Ringo (at least the Troy Rising series) is idiosyncracic, a singular voice. I was recommended to it, by a friend. John Ringo did not disappoint.

A real page-turner. Excellent story telling, just enough character development without getting bogged down in it. Read more

Review:Good story line and is a classic 'space opera' novel. Has some good ideas and nice writing. I like that the focus of his stories is told from different character's view points. Definitely a good read Read more

Review:All of the other reviews pretty much covered everything. Don't know if Ringo reads these reviews. If by chance, here goes. Shame, John Ringo. You have betrayed your fans. I served with 11th Special Forces Group and feel a kinship with another airborne trooper. There is no "flavor" of you in this book. Sorry, but I won't buy any more books co-written with another.

Review:Ringo does Zombie Apocalypse as only Ringo can... In a tangential but VERY possible direction and the initial set-up got me to buy in all the way. Mostly well written... read like the end was delivered under a hard deadline while his editor was on vacation... I joyfully wait for the follow-up chapters. Jim Baen would have loved this one for sure.

Review:This whole series is just awesome, you really get caught up in the characters and their interactions. This book, like the two that precede it, is very action packed. As with every other book mr Ringo has written it is hard to put this down, I would suggest that you don't start any of his books unless you are willing to finish it without putting it down.

Review:In the first four Posleen books and the Empire of Man series, Ringo made his characters amusing, human (even when they weren't) and made readers *care* about what happened to them. Sad to say, "Into The Looking Glass" while full of action and imagination, just didn't make me really care if any of the characters survived.

Too much got glossed over, there were too many loose ends and Ringo's usual deft sketches of people descended into careless stereotype all too often.

Review:I enjoyed seeing this story unfold. John Sutter really fell into a pile of trouble. Talk about a mid life crisis. Poor guy has a wonderful life and in less then a year it's ruined. Sure hope things turn out better for him in the next book. Read more

Review:I have had a lifelong interest in pre-history. I got out my book "Dawn of Art: The Chauvet Cave" by the original discoverers and found the paintings described in Shaman. Between the two books, I was transported back 30,000 years Read more

Review:The first several chapters were engrossing: a clever plot device, beautifully delineated characters and a crisp writing style. However, this book is nominally SF, and the author's absolute lack of understanding of any of the "science" in this work of fiction became more and more irritating. An interstellar vessel powered by sails? Which gather electricity? The slurs on the good names of physiology/medicine, computer science/A.I., and cognitive science were equally egregious. How hard would it ha... Read more

Review:M. Never has delivered yet again a brilliant book. Romantic with suspense and a dark under current makes it for a beautiful afternoon of reading. The story line was fantastic and I loved every minute of being wrapped up in Reese, Dev and Kayla. There was some heart breaking moments, a lot of happy times with beautiful memories and an ending that I think not a lot of people saw coming and more than a few tears. Let us not forget the HOT scenes that pulled you into their world. It is definitely on... Read more
