Title: A long way from his best
Review: I am generally a fan of the various Griffin series, but I just can't like this book. It's the first Griffin book I wasn't really eager to get back to reading.I think my biggest problem is the fragmented way that two stories are being told. We get a few pages each in different locations telling what's happening on an operation in Europe from several viewpoints. That's fine and somewhat normal for Griffin. The problem is that these snippets are also interspersed with some reports on what's happening on a different operation in the Pacific. With minor exceptions, the only connection is that they are occurring at the same time. Neither of them depends on the other in any way that I could see. This organization both detracts from the flow and reduces the space which could have been spent on either operation.It also seems that this series isn't as well developed as The Corps and Brotherhood of War.
Is the review positive or negative?
