Book Description
The Eternal Emperor ruled countless worlds across the galaxy. Vast armies and huge fleets awaited his command. But when he needed a "little" job done right, he turned to Mantis Team and its small band of militant problem solvers.
Just then the Emperor needed to pacify the Wolf Worlds, the planets of an insignificant cluster that had raised space piracy to a low art.
And Mantis Team could use all the men it needed -- as long as it needed no more than two.

From the Publisher
I originally got to know Allan Cole and Chris Bunch from answering their editor's phone. That was when they'd leave messages saying things like: "Where's our money? We know where your wife works and where your kid goes to school." They'd throw in some unprintables, which I dutifully took down verbatim. So I guess I was all prepared to take over as their editor on the Sten books eventually. I never expected to have an AK-47 shoved in my hands and a camera flashed in my face...but hey, that's what we editors will do for authors we like! Now all eight Sten books are on my shelves, and the photo is on my refrigerator...though I haven't yet tried one of the recipes in the books...

This is the second "Sten" Book I read, ("Fleet of the Damned" being first), and I thouroughly enjoyed it. Sten, Alex, and the rest of Mantis Team 13 show off their stuff in the Lupus Cluster. Read it, you'll like it. If not, we'll have you brainscaned!

Fun Sci-Fi that doesn't take itselt too seriously.,

This review is from: Sten 02 Wolf Worlds (Paperback)
Book two in Sten series and I am craving more. The first book set up our main character and trained him. Wolf Worlds lets him do his thing. The authors create a really interesting challenge for Sten as he gets to defuse a conflict between some sects of a religious group. These folks just happen to live right in the way of a new mineral that the Empire needs.So, Sten gets to go without use the tools that his Mantis Section training has given him. Instead he has to be a bit creative to keep the mission moving in the right way, but without all of the support he might have grown used to. I like the story, but I really like Sten. He remains a somewhat conflicted hero who isn't comfortable with every decision he has to make nor is he guaranteed to succeed at everything he tries. Things work out, but there are bumps in the road that threaten the mission. It's good stuff and worth buying from someone used.

This review is from: The Wolf Worlds (Mass Market Paperback)
i like the old covers the best.. when the publisher goes to the trouble of re-printing a title, you'd think they'd at least stick with the same cover concept that made the original famous.. but noooooo..cole and bunch are/were a SOLID team. they wrote eight VERY good books for the sten series, and, in my time, the sten series is one of the best i've read. |
