A solid but slow starting book, Falkenberg's Legion succeeds in presenting a believable and engrossing military narrative. I would have preferred a more dynamic beginning, but the ending is well worth it.
Good escapist read but not as good as I perhaps was lead to believe. Writing seems a bit all over the place and the book seems like several related novellas put together ... which I think it was.
Actually the first of the Falkenburg books - excellent read - series is best read in order
Another enjoyable book following Falkenberg's Legion
JP seemed to hit his stride in this series.
An excellent millitary sci-fi book.
