2.0 out of 5 stars
still hanging in there,
By JohnnyE "Texas Progressive" (College Station, TX USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Carrier 18 Island Warriors (Paperback)
this is fairly typical of the last few books in the series, unresolved sub plots, shoddy editing, implausible scenarios. But the next one starts getting the series back on track.The thing that disturbs me most is that the author barely mentioned an important recurring character at the beginning of book 16, killed the character off at the end of book 17 after not being mentioned anywhere else in the story, and then in books 18 and 19 acted as if the character disappeared in book 16 not 17. He's writing the books so fast he can't even keep track of his own characters.

Not As Good As the Earlier Books,
By Dan Lee (Brampton, Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Carrier 18 Island Warriors (Paperback)
I am starting to lose my patience with the Carrier series. Ever since the publisher started putting the books on a six or so months sched, the quality has really taken a nose dive.In this book, the character development is really poor. Instead of getting to know the odd aviator or seaman, they all seem to be interchangeable parts with similar dialogue. I can't tell at times whether Batman or Coyote is doing the talking. It seems that the plotting is out of control. In the earlier books, the secondary and diplomacy scenes helped the plot, but in this book they distract from the main plot. The last three books have been the worst of the series and I am at the point where I have almost given up. It seems when the author spent the time to write, the book was good. If you really want to enjoy this series, read the first eight books. I'd rather wait a couple of years to get a good book than get mediocre stuff every six months.
