More About This Book

Overview

The colony planet of Eighty-Six looks as dull as all its fellow new worlds to veteran journalist Lex Falk, but when a local squabble starts to turn violent, and the media start getting the runaround from the military high command, his interest is seriously piqued. Forbidden from approaching the battlezone, he gets himself chipped inside the head of a combat veteran – and uncovers the story of a lifetime. When the soldier is killed, however, Falk must use all his resourcefulness to get back home again… and blow the lid off the whole damn thing.

    Recommended Sci Fi reading

    I've recently started reading again. Something I probably should have done long ago. I actually really enjoyed this book. It wasn't your typical Hero from planet Zog fiction junk. It was a well thought out original plot with just enough hard hitting action. It's obvious Abnett is more of a battle sequence writer but again, he does a great job seamlessly moving the original plot forward and explaining things that simply should not be explained as well as he does them. Don't want to spoil it though. Short but entertaining. Enjoy.

    Fast reading story that has a good twist

    I have recently bought a NOOK and would like to see as many titles as possible converted to the NOOK format. This is a great story and has an interesting twist at the end that will leave you wanting to search for the next book in the series. Is there a next book? I hope so!

    Standard Abnett Novel: Solid, Not Amazing

    This is a pretty typical novel for Abnett: An action oriented, mil sci-fi genre novel, good read but not a lot of weight to it. It's fast to read and entertaining, but ultimately somewhat shallow. It hits on a couple big issues---e.g., post-global corporate states, tele-mind control, and the relationship between media and government, particularly in war. But it doesn't dig into any of them, or even really hint at some of the complexities lurking there. Further, it employs very much a 1980s conception of war, boosted by just a little high tech but in meaningless ways. Drones, genetics, many of these things are more than just minor tactics adjustments, but they're not present and the contradiction of a very high tech society but comparatively low tech military is unexplained and somewhat glaring. All in all, a good light read for fans of the genre, otherwise not overly compelling.

    Good story, glad its not real

    As a Former military guy, I'm very glad that higher command can only see through cameras and hear through speakers on my kit. Having someone in the back of my skull looking out my eyes and hearing with my ears would pretty much weird me out. Dan Abnett writes great military science fiction and this is no different. Recommended read.

    Interesting

    A great story line but not very well written. The story speeds up and then slows down due to too much detail.
