Just wondering if anyone had read any of these books. I've read Contest, Ice Station, Area 7, Hell Island and Im in the middle of Scarecrow and they are most excellent. I'm usually not into the whole warfare kind of thing, but the characters are great, and its more of an "elite marines squad on a secret mission" than a "war" novel. If that makes sense.
The first one I read was Hell Island which is actually a novella. very short. too short in fact! But just from that I fell in love with the characters and as soon as I knew there were more books with them in them I was up at the library. I read contest next, which is a stand alone novel that doesnt feature the same characters, and its a scifi one, not warfare. I really enjoyed it, and I miss the characters. There is talk of making it into a movie.
The link above has a list of the books that you can click on to read what they are about, so I wont spoil any of them here. Was mostly just wondering if anyone else was a fan :D
