Some things which might help you choose to read my books or not : - I mainly write 'life in space'.
Living the life of the character is more important than what happens. Or if you like, bathroom breaks and throwing up are part of life. I'm a 'pantser', not a plotter. What happens, happens, as it happens. Or put another way, life happens. Perfect pacing for me, isn't real life. Deal with it. The comma is a. Search review text. Ridiculous by the end The MC is so over powered, there is zero tension at all in this book.
The author's naive and hypocritical views on guns were amplified rather than toned down. If you believe in the 'violence goes away when guns go away' and the 'government is trustworthy' mantra then this book is for you. If you have common sense, pass on this book, this series and this author. Roh Bawt. I tried to over look it but the author just went overboard trying to shove his views on gun control down everyone's thoat.
I don't even own a gun but I don't want an author having me PAY to have his views pushed on me Not a bad story, nice solution to the issues raised in the previous book. Only thing is, I can't even begin to agree with the whole take guns away from everyone, then there won't be any violence thing. Anyone who looks up the appropriate statistics, will discover that in general, the places with the toughest gun laws, also have the highest crime rates.
It's easy to rob someone when you know for certain they aren't carrying. Conversely, the cities with the highest gun ownership per capita tend to also be the ones with the lowest crime rates. Folks aren't quite so willing to try robbing someone who might shoot their sorry ass for trying. Good concept though, got to give points for effort. Besides that silly nonsense, the story wasn't bad at all. I gave this book a 4 of 5 because there were times where I was really quite moved, a laugh, a tear, it was clever and interesting.
This said, I for one found the plot to be a little predictable and maybe the book suffered from the same thing as the original Ender Saga, it just sort of went "out there" but was also a little bit tidy. No doubt if you invested in the first and second books, you'll want to finish the series off.
The war shifts from defensive to offensive. The stakes get higher, as the means to fight the aggressors finally become available. But has he risen too high? Or are the consequences of his own actions interfering with his judgement?
As fast as you move, the past is faster and always catches up with you when you least expect it. This is not a game, and being a hero has its own price tag.
First of My Kind is the story of Nathan Myers, a Missouri farm boy who, through a chain of events that happens halfway across the galaxy, finds his way from the seat of his Grandfather's tractor to the command of a starship from a lost super race. Nathan will tell you in his own words about the life and death struggles he encounters on his journey. He will tell you about the humor, peril, and pain of his galactic education. By: Marc Stevens. But rescues are the least of his concerns.
Darkness is coming, and there are still people out there who don't like him. The Sirius system has always fascinated Jon, and he is drawn to solve its mysteries. But what is the price of being curious? Can one simple step cause what you dread the most? Is it possible to do one too many rescues?
To take one step too far into the unknown? Scraps, a gutter child, is sitting in his hiding place in a back alley, waiting for the cold thunderstorm to pass. Suddenly, lightning strikes in front of him, and then a second time. The two lightning bolts become men — two wizards — one from the Red Order, the other from the Blue. The Red Wizard, chanting his curses, throws lightning bolts and fireballs.
The Blue Wizard, singing his spells, throws lightning bolts and ice shards. Every year, the empire administers the rite of passage into adulthood.
That rite serves to identify those blessed by Aether to become magi. The new magi are shipped to the academy to learn the arts of magic. The academy is a dangerous place; the tournaments held twice each year can cripple or kill the students, and the clans of the empire will go to great lengths to recruit the students they want. Gregory had one dream: to become a magi like the legends of old.
Though he was ridiculed by the residents of the village and his unsupportive father, he never wavered from his dream. By: Daniel Schinhofen. Jonathon Hunter's world grows darker each day. Assassins, pirates, bounty hunters, mercenaries, and retros, all want a piece of him. Each trap leads to yet another trap.
When the unthinkable happens, the prey becomes the predator. The hunted goes hunting. But how does a young spiritual warrior cope as the kills mount? The name's Burnside, and I always get the weird cases. I built my detective career taking down the strangest bad guys in Earth Sector. No matter how crazy the case, I always managed to get it off the books. After 20 years of pounding my beat, I was ready to pack it in, and I'd called it a day. Then these killings started, weird to the point of freaked-out PD Chiefs, and only one person who fit the case.
So much for retirement. The story I'm going to tell you covers two years of my life, and took me from one end of human space to the other. By: Timothy Ellis , and others. Regan Earle was a robotics scientist that inadvertently caused the robot takeover of the world. When his last creation completes a decade-long plan to end his own life, he ends up surprised. Creation offers him a second chance to test his wits and cunning in another world. Fate, however, is fickle and Regan ends up as a Dungeon Core Is the world of Murgin ready to face such a dungeon?
Let's find out By: Matthew Peed. There's no such thing as a dull life for Jon Hunter. He's come to grips with being an Admiral. But why does someone want to keep him from becoming a Duke so badly, that collateral damage doesn't matter?
The Midgard war is over, the British coup behind him, but war comes in many forms. Life isn't the same when you fly a desk, unless the desk comes under direct attack. Continually stepping into the middle of the eternally stupid, every time they do stupid? The future is threatened by his own past, and to fix everything, he thinks he has to undo what he's already done. But what if what you did cannot be undone, and the future has more riding on it than anyone knows?
The view of guns in this book is very naive made even more so as the main character is going around killing a heap of people who just happen to all be bad guys or gun loving idiots who are also bad guys.
What made it so bad was the fact that it was rather heavy handed given the fact that the MC is a vigilante who waged a privet war in book one it just felt out of place and was clearly based in American politics.
The protagonist is way over powered, but that's good to read sometimes. He gets morose a bit more than I'd like but it was liveable. When he starts screaming about gun control I lost all interest in finishing the novel. The first part could have been the ending of the last book. Add to Cart failed. Please try again later.
