5.0�toiles sur 5 An Author Who knows his market, Juil 7 2004

Par	General Pete (SC) - Voir tous mes commentaires

I like this guy because he never tries to sell you something other than what you know you are already getting. Sure his charecters in the 35th Maine can wax, wane and moan about the injustice of slavery and the horror of canabalism but it is always limited.

Eventually he just shuts up and tells a good story. Therefore this book is engaging and you can turn off your mind. You still care for the charecters on some level but you do not have to think a lot.

5.0�toiles sur 5 One of a series, Jui 25 2003

Par	Tango (Buenos Aires, Argentina) - Voir tous mes commentaires

I have read the whole "missing regiment" series. It's good, addictive and very, very thorough and realistic. Some people may be shocked by the cruelty of some scenes, but the books try to show part of what a conflict is.
You will have to read most or all the books in the series to really appreciate it. Pity that for now Mr. Forstchen has interrupted this series.

4.0�toiles sur 5 "Awesome Story; The Characters Really Come To Life", Ao� 23 2002

Par	John J. Rust "therustsays" (Prescott, AZ) - Voir tous mes commentaires

This is the first book I have read in "The Lost Regiment" series. I've had this on my to read list for quite some time and now must ask myself "why did I wait so long?" Forstchen did an excellent job making these characters flesh and blood people you come to care about. Many of them are either beaten down by 8 years of fighting Rebs and the Horde, or have actually come to love war. While Col. Keane seems a clone of real-life Maine Col. Joshua Chamberlain of Gettysburg fame, I did like the self-doubt that kept cropping up in him throughout the war. It made him more of a real person instead of some super leader-type. Still he goes out and does his job, even though he has to do some very unpleasant things that will eat at his soul forever. You also really felt the sense of desperation of the humans as the Horde keeps winning one battle after another, threatening the civiliaztion they worked so hard to build. Very good battle scenes, especially the dogfight between the human and Horde airships. I definitely want to read more of "The Lost Regiment" series.
