Negative Positive
Title: A gripping "what if" thriller...
Review: I found this to be a very engrossing read - I couldn't out it down! Yes, it does suffer somewhat from a less than complete job of editing but this does not rise to the level of significantly interfering with the story. Berryman does an effective job of connecting related events (a la Tom Clancy but not quite at Clancy's level of mastery) in a plausible future with an imperialistic China run amok. The exploration of the relative cultural and political strengths and weaknesses of the various nations involved as they would impact such a scenario make for an interesting enhancement to the storyline. One warning though, if you consider yourself among the progressive, socially enlightened or politically correct, then you probably won't enjoy this book very much - Libertarians, Neo-cons and other foreign policy conservatives dive in and enjoy!
