The MC is a pathetic emotional mess. His mistrustful “lone wolf” act in the first 2 books comes off as more charming, like a rebel down on his luck. Now with zero confidants, comrades and character arcs well into book 3, the MC just comes off as a total dick. He goes out of his..
I really enjoyed this story and the characters. The writing was exceptional, as was the performance
While this series is almost exclusively given to the male perspective in everything, despite there being numerous female characters, it is excellent. There is a truly wonderful missed opportunity though in the female characters that I hope the author will explore with gusto in the next series of books. A new angle is needed to..
Good series overall, it flowed well. When writing about anything military, do your research. Real rangers from the 75th are bad a55, and military Humvee’s don’t have keys. Look for someone with a few enlistments in the military to proofread. Overall no major complaints, as a series worth buying.

Written by someone who’s obviously never experienced pain beyond the type you choose (working out, running…). The stereotypes are horrific, there’s not announcement of understanding much less the ability for character development. I suppose the author wanted to write a “clean” book but thought leaving out cussing means you’re reading something uplifting, all the while..
