I really gave this series a go, but it was pretty bad. The main character is Megan. She is an emotional train wreck with zero tactical skills….but the author made her the leader of a group of EMP survivors. The number two character is Wyatt. He is a former Navy SEAL that has years of..
I can’t praise this book enough, the headline says it all, this is one of the best book I’ve ever read.
I’m not sure I would’ve purchased books 2-6 if they weren’t a set. The author didn’t develop the main character Wyatt to his full potential. As a former Navy Seal he lacked serious military mindset, doctrine and tactics. He was way too trusting and not nearly as strong as I know SOF to be. The..
I could not finish after Wendy was kidnapped the 4th time! The characters kept making the same dumb mistakes over and over, no one’s that naive.

Cons: I don’t accept that all of these gas stations are going to be..
Review from The Sword of Kaigen: A Theonite War Story →
I was expecting more givien the hype around this book. The author built a built an incredible world with compelling characters, but then didn’t do much with them. This book climaxes in the first half and then spends the second half mopping up. That would be fine if there were going to be a sequel,..
Review from This Plot Is Bananas! →
While the narrator does at times make it hard to tell who’s speaking in this one, it’s a nice conclusion. From if or how Wes would Slay the pun loving dragon to all the dark plots, wrapped up most. I’ll admit though some thing were left unsaid that make it feel like there should be..
