The Imperial Marines Saga books 1 to 3 – Great military sci-fi.

The only bad thing with this series is that now I have yet another ongoing book series (two from this author) on my to-read shelf. If that sounds like the whining of a spoiled person that is probably because it is 😁. Continue reading The Imperial Marines Saga books 1 to 3 – Great military sci-fi.

Shadows of Opinion – This series continues on a high note.

This one is a great read. It is a roller coaster of action and bad-guy ass-kicking while at the same time advancing the story. Continue reading Shadows of Opinion – This series continues on a high note.

Nuclear Deterrent – Rubbish!

Well, I guess one could say that my expectations were fulfilled. This is a rubbish book. Continue reading Nuclear Deterrent – Rubbish!

Here we go again…

Again(!) I fell behind with my reviews and as usual when I fall behind with my reviews I tend to forget details so it is difficult for me to go back and do a proper review of books I’ve read. So it is time for another one of my (in)famous catch-ups to clear out the back-log. Continue reading Here we go again…

Fog of War – Good military sci-fi.

Overall I enjoyed the book. It is maybe not a strong four star book but a four star one nonetheless. Continue reading Fog of War – Good military sci-fi.

The Moon and Beyond – Very good start…

I really liked this book. It is a humanity finally takes to the stars, or at least to the moon, with a healthy bashing of political assholes. Continue reading The Moon and Beyond – Very good start…

Starship’s Mage books 8 to 13 – I really like this series.

Overall this is one of the best series I have read lately. Maybe not the best ever but definitely the best one I’ve read in the last three or four months. Continue reading Starship’s Mage books 8 to 13 – I really like this series.

This author should stick to writing urban fantasy.

The story is a TV-show style, and a poor one at that, illogical mess of unlikely events and twists. Continue reading This author should stick to writing urban fantasy.

Dark Star Deceit – Nope, dumping this series now.

This series had some promise. I liked the core idea for the story. Unfortunately it never rose above mediocre and now it is really going downhill. Continue reading Dark Star Deceit – Nope, dumping this series now.

Shield of Humanity – Good military sci-fi.

This, the 7th book in The Last Hunter series, is a good piece of military science fiction. It does not really match up to the Empire Rising series of which I recently read the last instalment in that series but it is still a good book. Continue reading Shield of Humanity – Good military sci-fi.

Shadow Strike – Yet another great book in the series.

This is another five star book. It is great military action both in space and on the ground but most of it is truly great space battles with large fleets duking it out. Continue reading Shadow Strike – Yet another great book in the series.

Song of Darkness – More of the same which is good.

Well, this is going to be a short review since this book, the 12th instalment in the series, is really more of the same which, in this case, is not a bad thing. Continue reading Song of Darkness – More of the same which is good.

The Art of Smuggling – Improvement over the last book in the series.

This was a decent read. It was certainly much better than the previous book in this series. Continue reading The Art of Smuggling – Improvement over the last book in the series.

Slip Runner books 1 to 3 – Pretty decent sci-fi adventure.

Overall the books have a nice mix of dialogue, action, discoveries, twists and other “glue” tying the story together. It is not exactly a WOW experience but it is a decent enough science fiction adventure and I have enjoyed reading these first books in the series.

Welcome to my blog.

This is a non-professional hobby blog where I ramble about things I like to ramble about.

Mostly it is book reviews, a few movie reviews and sometimes about computers, gadgets and software.

The reviews are strictly my opinion (non-professional remember?) on what I have read or watched.
