John Ringo has absolutely no problem depicting strong
women. I enjoy his military scifi and
was not overly surprised to discover I enjoyed his zombie dominated Black Tide
Rising series. I started the series on
the second book, To
Sail Darkling Sea . This book takes
up the story and once again the Wolf family is featured. Faith, Shewolf and Sophia, Seawolf are butt
kicking once more. Faith is flat out
crazy but I'm going out on a limb here and say that I have met many 13 year old
girls who scared me more than the same age boy.
(My guidance counselor experience is wide and varied.) Wolf Squadron, a family dominated militia
type of navy that is attempting to rescue survivors and eventually re-take the
world continues to grow and strive.
Ringo never fails to provide an orgy of action! He wallows in the nitty gritty of providing
reading thrills, gruesome and somewhat realistic. This book also approaches the problem of
rebuilding an infrastructure in able to rescue the survivors of the zombie
apocalypse.
One of the things Ringo also seems to infuse in his books
are warrior characters who bring honor and ethics to often intolerable
situations. His heroes are heroic!
I recommend the book.
