Planetside
Just finished reading "Planetside" by Michael Mammy, released by Harper Voyager.
Sometimes you just have to be willing to take a chance on a new author, so when I received a recommendation from Amazon for "Planetside," I decided to give it a chance because - and this may surprise some readers of my reviews - that I actually have read and enjoy some types of military science fiction. I do think that Mom and Dad would have enjoyed reading "Planetside" with it's authentic military feel and mystery elements.
When the son of a powerful politician goes missing on the front lines at Cappa Three, General Serata calls Colonel Carl Butler to investigate. Butler protests; he’s semi-retired, done years in cryo already, and besides, he’s got ugly history with that planet. But Serata is a good friend, and he makes an offer Butler can’t refuse. He accepts it against his better judgment figuring that at most, it will be five months out, a week to investigate and file a report, five months back, and he can finally retire.
But things aren’t as cut and dried as the general implied. Butler smells trouble from the moment he arrives at Cappa base. Lies and blatant obstruction by base personnel tell him something is very wrong. What’s worse, his digging stirs up a hornet’s nest. And when people start dying around him, both on base and planet side, Colonel Butler knows there’s far more to this mystery than anyone let on.
A tense and thrilling science-fiction military suspense novel.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
TEN STARS!
