Required Reading

Life is complicated enough without getting into hotwater with federal agencies so: TAKE NOTE Many things I review I received at no charge in exchange for an honest review. Consider this as informing you that ALL things I review may have been gotten at no charge. Realistically about 40% but in order to keep things above board just assume that I got the stuff free. I do not collect information on my readers. If cookies or other tracking stuff is used on my blogs it is due to BLOGGER not ME. Apparently the European Union's new rules state I need to inform you if cookies are being use. If they are it isn't byu me, consider yourself INFORMED.
Words like, “sponsored,” “promotion,” “paid ad” or even just “ad” are clear ways to disclose that you’re being paid to share information and links so BE AWARE that some of what I write can be described as an AD by the government. BTW I will NEVER say a product is great, super or even acceptable if it isn't, whether I got it free or NOT!

Out of the Dark by David Weber






A new Weber series is always welcome.  Although after starting the excellent Multiverse series and discovering there are no plans to finish it makes me leery of starting a new Weber series.   Although in this purported series, there is a good wrap up, I guess in case he decides not to continue.   I know I was not the only one disappointed when there was no follow up (and none planned) for Hell’s Gate and Hell Hath No Fury.





Regardless, this book does stand alone well so if there is no follow up, there should be no disappointment. 



This book started very similar to a John Ringo series, the Posleen War.   It had a very similar taste and feel.   Weber does have the ability to craft characters that are memorable in spite of the fact he never hesitates to kill some of them off.  



There are some interesting twists to the book that make it much different than the Ringo series. 



I still recommend the book .

This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
