Publisher's Summary

They promised him one weekend a month. The House or Reason swore the 9th would never leave their gentle homeworld. But after Kublar, things changed for Sergeant Fetch and the Caledonian Reserve Legion Corps. Thrown into a meat grinder conflict in a desperate bid to hold the line, it doesn’t matter whether you’re reserve or active, only that you kill and survive.

A searing tale of combat and honor at any price from a wounded veteran of the War in Iraq who fought to keep the MSRs open from Mosul to Tikrit.

Great story but narration is too fast

The story was great and character development was superb. I just felt that the narration was too fast. The action sequences were great but points in the story where the pacing slowed down didn’t have a slow down in performance. I feel like spots where there should have been tension are rushed past.

A bit monotone

Although the story evokes dread and sympathy, the pacing and the reading both rendered this book monotone.

NOT WORTH A CREDIT

The concept of a reserve legion is absurd. The legion are supposed to be the 1% of the 1% of the 1%. This story strays from the committed, career soldier idea way too far.

The voice acting leaves a lot to be desired.
