The Royal Marine Space Commandos #2
Guerrilla
A ruthless invasion. An outmatched colony. A Commando's last chance offensive.
Lieutenant Warden just barely survived a relentless attack on the New Bristol colony. The Royal Marine Space Commando has orders to defend his post until support arrives. But when Lt. Warden learns of a nearby enemy base that could wipe out far more than the colony, his mission transforms from protective to suicidal...
To save countless lives, Lt. Warden must raid an unstoppable enemy and take out one of the most powerful warships in the galaxy. No pressure or anything. Avoiding huge walking tanks and technology far beyond their own, the RMSC has one chance to get this right.
Can Lt. Warden pull off the incredible, or will losing the battle cost them the war?
Guerrilla is the second book in the action-packed Royal Marine Space Commandos military sci-fi series. If you like tough heroes, high-tech action, and page-turning battles, then you'll love Jon & James Evans' fast-paced adventure.

Marines are hitting the beach, as you can tell
This second book in the series still leaves the history of who the enemy are. You get a little information about The List Arks. And one that we now have an interest in. But still no reason for their attack or why they are returning? Their tech advantage is there to be explored and used. Things are getting exciting now that the Marines have boarded and taken a ship as a prize of war. And the name and location of a planet to go look at, and learn from.

British sci-fi
Really great read, pulled me in with the first book, and kept going with this one. Very British in its style. Most refreshing, please keep it up.

Unique in that the politician is both competent and honest
Love the small science colony vibe with military action
. Fun read so far both first and second books. Good problem solving techniques.

I enjoyed the first book in this series. This one is considerably longer and has room for the plots to be developed more expansively. Perhaps a little too much freedom to roam; some storylines go beyond their natural lifespan and ramble around.
Of more serious concern is the magic bullet effect. Or, in this case, the single-handed psychopath who can be relied upon to rescue the day just when it seems that all is lost. This is badly overdone in it is sloppy writing.
A feature of this book, but not its prequel, is some shocking proof reading. To the extent that several passages need a couple of readings before resolving themselves.
But, once again, the authors have come up with engaging characters and a plot that just about holds together and manages to be eminently readable and enjoyable. But, please, less of our decimal penal marine next time.

Once again an excellent book, and for me an absolute page turner. Characters and storyline all flow smoothly leaving me wanting more. This is the updated version and I have no intention of reading the original. As another reviewer mentioned in book one, a little back story on Marine X would be good.

It's better than the last one
I enjoyed reading this book it's superb. Great characters with realistic situations and lots of action. Ten is brilliant and reminds me of some of the marines I knew. Marines are good but where are the paras .
I look forward to more from this series.😉

Love it
More Ten, please. He is the perfect, irreverently plucky marine. Action, serious-humor, and characters that are easy to get interested in. A great read.
