Fantastic Book! Loved it!
I am copying this from my review over at smashwords.
It is my first ever review, (so please forgive the "newb" feeling to it) but this book was really great!
Wow!
I just finished 'Peace Warrior", By Steven Hawk....
and I am thoroughly pleased!
Such a great book!
I am left with the feeling of "I can't wait for a sequel!"
I do not recall the last time a book has left me feeling that way.
This is my first actual book review ever.
So please bare with me.
I have been putting it off for about a week, Just because I was unsure how to go about this..
But I'll just type.. and hope it's ok.
This is the first work of fiction I have read in quite a few years...
and I think it's safe to say I will be reading more!
Steven Hawk has a true talent for writing!
It is written in a fashion that had me feeling like I was actyually watching it on a movie screen..
Every scene, action, environment.. I could "see" clearly
Peace Warrior is the first work of fiction I have picked up in years, and I am very happy this is the book I decided to read!
I couldn't agree more with Isabela Morales's review!
This is a fantastic book!, and a book that has left me wanting more!
I was almost saddened that I was on the last page, and could read no further into the lives of these amazing characters!
This book is written in such a way, that one can simply visualize all the plots, surroundings, environments, as if they were watching it on a movie screen.
Many books fail to do this,
but Peace Warrior is not one of them.
I can still picture all the scenes in my head, as if I had just watched a film,.... a great film!
I thought many times while reading it..
"Man, this would make an amazing movie!"
Peace Warrior is one of the books that you just want to keep reading until it's to the end..
even if you have other things to do...
You just want to keep reading! lol
You could really tell that the author had some real, actual experiences in some of the things written about in this book.
Such as combat, hand to hand , and other..
You could tell that it was written by someone with actual experience..
rather than by someone with no experience, who is trying to make it still sound good, and real.
Steven Hawk also brings up some really good things to think about in this book..
Some really deep, meaningful thoughts.. in regards to society, peace, love, war....
and I have been pondering these things since I finished the book..
If you read it.. (you should) you'll see what I mean.
I feel I have written too much here..
but also not enough.. in some way..
So I will stop it here, and hope that my *first* book review is sufficient enough to make my feelings about this book known.
Apologies for such a "newbie" review..
But I'll just end with saying that, I love this book!
Truly!
and will read it again!
Grant Justice is my new hero!
Many Thanks Steven!
Please keep up the writing!
I look forward to more books from you! :)
You are great, man. :) <38 out of 12 people found this review helpful.

Amazing!
The perfect mix of war, sci-fi, and aliens. If you havent read this book or trilogy it should be next on your list. This is kind of crazy but I think this trilogy is just as good as the Harry Potter series. Take this from a serious reader. Keep on writting!

Great Series
I bought the first one because it was cheap and the "teaser" was interesting. I bought the next two out of necessity to follow the story. Really, really enjoyed it, thank you for bringing it to life.

A fun read
I enjoyed the book Some parts were fun but i kept on feeling like I was reading Battlefield Earth. I found the carelessness of the Aliens to be a little too much to swallow. Still it was fun to read. I think that the author has potential.
