    <![CDATA[Staff Sergeant Torin Kerr's goal is to keep both her superior officers and her troops alive as they face missions throughout the galaxy. But she's been sidelined with endless briefings and debriefings for a while, so she jumps at the chance to go to Crucible-the Marine Corps training planet-as temporary aide to Major Svensson.  The major was reduced to little more than a brain and spinal cord in his last combat, and now he and his doctor are eager to field test his new body.    <p>It's supposed to be an easy assignment-after all, Crucible was set up to simulate battle situations so recruits could be trained safely.

    <body><![CDATA[Great book. I love that the alien species Huff created are getting some depth, as is Torin Kerr. It's also nice that the story is being expanded beyond just Torin to include Craig Ryder and others. I'm really looking forward to the next book in the installment. ]]></body>

    <![CDATA[Staff Sergeant Torin Kerr's goal is to keep both her superior officers and her troops alive as they face missions throughout the galaxy. But she's been sidelined with endless briefings and debriefings for a while, so she jumps at the chance to go to Crucible-the Marine Corps training planet-as temporary aide to Major Svensson.  The major was reduced to little more than a brain and spinal cord in his last combat, and now he and his doctor are eager to field test his new body.    <p>It's supposed to be an easy assignment-after all, Crucible was set up to simulate battle situations so recruits could be trained safely.  But Torin's barely on-planet when someone starts blasting the training scenarios to smithereens...</p>]]>

    <body><![CDATA[This third volume in Huff's military adventures of Torin Kerr follows up on the situations set up in the previous two volumes quite satisfactorily. It somehow seemed much closer in tone and pacing to a good mystery novel than to traditional military science fiction, which was quite refreshing. ]]></body>
