Donald M. Wheeler: Love this series. Watching Mcgees antics and adventures makes for great entertainment. These are a lot of fun and action between the covers.

Kindle Customer: I love the main character McGill. The craziest, lovable, sociopath, I've read in a long time. The writer gets him into freaky, terrible trouble only for the character to slip out of it by the hairs of his chinny chin chin.. mostly with a great deal of violence in most cases.

Joe: I always look forward to this series coming out. This one has more twists and turns than a manic roller coaster on speed. If you not read this series before then take some advice and start at book 1, you can thank me later with a pint of beer some time.

FoolishExpectations: Heh. Heh. Pretty good sequel though the tale is tainted by a background idea of true romance developing in the main lust relationship. The plot is a bit more coherent and sophisticated than normal as well...but not much. Still its an accomplishment of consistency that many authors failed to achieve. Though many series start off as more impressive stories, most authors rapidly lose steam after the 5th in series - usually both in terms of ideas and personal interest continuing any main characters or institutions. Almost all the rest of the authors suffer similar steep drops in quality after eight in series. So while this series might not reach the rarified initial heights of quality of other works except in low gallows humor and brute violence - it is among the mere handful that is still worth reading after more than a dozen releases and still centering on the original cast of characters.

MN:
McGill is at the top of his game, relentlessly battling enemies, creatively "following orders" such that Earth, Legion Varus, and James McGill come out like roses, or at least get a revive after the dust settles, like the idiot savant he is, even wooing the ladies when the opportunity presents itself.
But this time the stakes are higher than they've ever been for McGill, the Legion, and Earth. Not only is the future of Earth on the chopping block for past Galactic crimes that have come to light (yeah, he did it again), but his future in Legion Varus is in jeopardy, and, worst of all, his girlfriend's father wants to meet him!
I thoroughly enjoyed following James McGill on another of his romps through military and government heirarchy, interstellar warfare, commercial privateering, and speed dating.
And, in spite of his regular routine of "catching a revive" after dying in battle, or being assassinated by a rival / jealous ex- / military court martial, or Galactic decree, James McGill seems to be starting to show some signs of growing up. Just a little.

Kindle Customer: Mr Larson is just getting better as a writer and storyteller with each new book. There is very little wrong with this story, and the editing is much improved from some of the earlier books. I won't go into spoilers, I only wish to encourage you to read this book, as it is well paced, entertaining and it ties a lot of things together from earlier books in this series, as well as moving the whole story arc forward and foreshadowing events in future books. I didn't just enjoy it, I actually loved it. Well done.

Kindle-Kunde:
Loved it. I laughed, I fevered, I had to turn to the next page. Somehow, this series never disappoints. Especially, I like the new character and glimpse of story arc about Galinas father and Graves background.
This smells of intrigue!

Alkon Ramirez: Wow that Turov family sure is something, nice to learn more about Galina's family. A toast to McGill for getting away with it. Here's hoping that in the future Nox lets him teach her child to be a ruthless killer
