3.0 out of 5 stars Good short stories of war Jan 3 2000
By Harold Buchanan
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Most of these stories were pretty good. I was surprised by the fantasy parts in some of these stories because I expected all of them to be mostly sci-fi / military. The stories that were set in Viet Nam were all pretty good. Drake's leaning on Mech. Infantry gets old, he should write about light fighters too. The story about fraging the LT was great. The soldier justified killing another man because his buddy was killed while sneaking a joint while on a mission. He was sneaking it cause the LT wouldn't allow dope. So his buddies death is blamed on the Lieutenant. Classic!

I like that Drake doesn't make villians out of many of his officers. Most are soldiers that have earned the confidence and respect of their men by being charismatic and competant. We would all like to work for that kind of officer.

I give this 3 stars because I like it. The 4th star is for great and the stories just didn't get me there

5.0 out of 5 stars Truly wonderful... July 27 1998

This is a wonderful collection of Drake's works. It provides an insight into what makes his work truly stand out from the crowd. The Vietnam stories are among his earliest works and are stunning. "Have you ever seen a Sheridan burn?" is forever etched into my memory.

By A Customer

One of Drake's earliest works. A mixture of true science fiction and fantasy wrapped around a Vietnam backdrop. A terrific collection of military science fiction short stories. Well worth the price.
