Summary: Publisher's Weekly pretty much nailed this book
Comment: It reads at about an 8th grade level. The characters are weak; the dialogue weak; the color and tone even weaker. Historical details are not even very good.

If you want good historical fiction on the era, pick up Herman Wouk instead.

Rating: 4
Summary: Much improved
Comment: Much improved from the previous Battle Lines. Although still a light fare, it moved from course to course smoothly. It is what it is, and needs a sequel.

Rating: 1
Summary: Trial By Fire
Comment: This is not a great book although it can be used as a great illustration as to "you should always write about what you know best." In this case, I find it difficult to believe the author knows a thing of combat, World War II, history in general, making love or story telling. The story line is weak. The dialog is corny and the book is quite poorly researched. Even the "cussing" is forced and complete gratuitous - I doubt if the author ever listened to a GI talk. The book reads much like a Harlequin, a poorly written one. I would suggest the author stick to his empty Westerns. Jacket and in-book synopsis are quite misleading.
