Great read
It is an excellent chapter in the series. The story and characters draw you in. It's definitely a page turner. However, in the future, perhaps a little more time in editing and review. There were quite a few spelling and grammatical errors. But it's still worth reading .

Great series, I enjoyed each book better the last!
I know, he's a bit of an equipment snob, but his choices are the same as I would make (hopefully not sounding like advertisement as much as he does).
In any case, it's a good read.

December 14, 2024Great story, needs another round of proofreading
Great prep primer, a little stilted in places, but matches the operator viewpoint. Deals with a broader range of situations than most in the genra.

REALLY needs proofreading and a bit of fact checking
Interesting, but it REALLY needs proofreading and fact checking. The grammar and sentence structure are so bad they are distracting and confusing.

FINALLY

FINALLY SHE GOT HERS! I was never so happy to see that scum get hers! The only bad thing is that she didn’t get tortured to death in the worst way possible. But that isn’t David’s style. Can’t wait to grab the next book and TYVM for this one!

Captivating story
I was hooked from the first book and am left wanting more. This set of books started a story that I wish would continue to be told.

great addition to the series
I’m really glad I found this series!! Wilson has brought his characters to life. He has masterfully built an amazing, awake all night read.
