What the KRIFF happened to this book? Where did it go? Finally, a book about a character OTHER than Luke or Han Solo, and they toss it! Zekk played such a big role in the previous Dark Nest, and Legacy of the Force series, making him stand out as a possible future Jedi Master. Troy Denning leaves you wondering what happened to him at the end on Invincible, but I guess we'll never know what happened for sure. Fierfek!
P.S. The Clone Wars cartoon series sucks.

Star of Damocles (Warhammer 40,000 Novels) Review

Star of Damocles (Warhammer 40,000 Novels)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Star of Damocles, the second installment in Andy Hoare's tale of the exploits of Lucian Gerrit and the Clan Arcadius, follows directly on the heels of Rogue Star. This time, however, Hoare amps up the action while maintaining the development of his characters, spinning a space yarn that is terse and tense, and reads quite well.
The book picks up immediately where Rogue Star leaves off; Lucian and his brood find themselves on the edge of the Damocles Gulf, preparing to launch an Imperial crusade against the newly discovered Tau. However, as a rogue trader, Lucian has his reservations, unwilling to concede to Imperial Cardinal Gurney and Inquisitor Grand's notion that the Tau should simply be exterminated; rather, it is Lucian's belief--no doubt rooted in his exploitative nature as a rogue trader--that the Tau have technologies and knowledge that could further the cause of the Imperium.
Much like Rogue Star, Hoare creates a story dripping with character and political intrigue. A great number of scenes within [I]Star of Damocles[/I take place within the chambers of the military council of the crusade, consisting of Gerrit, Grand, Gurney, and an assortment of other military and strategic heads, including two Astartes captains. These scenes, though devoid of bloodshed or physical action, are well written, tense, and most importantly believable. Though many on the council are minor characters, through Lucian's presence at the council we see that each has a thoroughly distinct character. Further, each council session is teeming with a palpable tension, created by the obvious disdain some characters have for others.
And while this political intrigue and maneuvering takes up a great deal of the book, Hoare presents us with more action than before. As in Rogue Star, Hoare does a commendable job of presenting naval warfare. While I'm no expert on ship-to-ship combat, each naval action is believably written, with Gerrit reminding me of Russell Crowe's turn as Captain Jack Aubrey in the movie Master and Commander (and I mean this is the utmost positive). In addition, we are privy to more visceral action via the boarding actions of the White Scars. While not as lengthy and descriptive as, say, the Horus Heresy novels, the Astartes action is appropriate. The boarding actions are quick in real time, and are represented as such in the novel.
Akin to Rogue Star, Star of Damocles is not without a few warts. While we get to see the growth of both Lucian and Korvane as characters, Brielle is left to her own devices (for good reason though) most of the book. As a result, Brielle's character growth is limited and she deviates very little from the rebellious archetype she is meant to embody. Also, the ending is a bit abrupt and is obviously a place holder for a sequel; sadly, I've yet to find out whether or not one is planned.
Despite those--admittedly picky--shortcomings, in Star of Damocles Andy Hoare has fleshed out the universe he created in Rogue Star and developed a cast of very likeable characters. Additionally, Hoare's story keeps you on the edge of your grav chair...er, seat...and makes you want more. I hope Hoare is allowed to conclude his tale as, for me, the story of Lucian Gerrit and the Arcadius Clan is contending for a "Best of" spot in the expansive Black Library.
The Good
* Continues development of great characters
* Politiking is intense and intriguing, while action scenes are equally involved
The Bad
* Brielle's character stagnates with limited `face time'
* (Sadly) No conclusion on the horizon will leave you wanting

Polikarpov's I-16 Fighter - It's Forerunners and Progeny
Red Star Volume 3
By Yefim Gordon and Keith Dexter
© 2001 Midlands Press and Specialty Press
Reviewed by Ned Barnett
This book initially came out in 2001 - and it was a great addition to the literature at that time. However, since 2001, restored I-16s are once again flying, stirring a new level of interest in these remarkable transitional-era fighter aircraft. Beyond that, Eduard, Trumpeter and a half-dozen other kit manufacturers have issued great new kits of the I-16 and its immediate predecessors, the I-15 and I-153 biplane fighters. That influx of new Soviet fighter kits makes this book well worth another look - if you don't have it, and if you're planning to build one of these great kits (I plan to build five of them), this book is an absolute godsend.
It's 126 pages long - 20 of those pages are side-view line drawings and side-view color plates - lots and lots of color plates, illustrating just how many color schemes are available to modelers.
Mostly, however, this book is chock-full of detailed photos - lots and lots of photos - along with enough text to help you make sense of both the photos and the almost-bewildering number of models of I-16s that were manufactured.
Why does this matter? At the time of it's entry into service, the I-16 was perhaps the most advanced fighter aircraft in the world - it did in the early 1930s what the MiG-15 did in the early 1950s - it catapulted Soviet fighter aircraft into the forefront of world development. Initially built with an enclosed cockpit, the I-16 was among the first operational cantilever monoplane fighters with retractable landing gear. The I-16 also carried more than the then-standard two rifle-caliber machine guns. With streamlining, strength and raw power, the I-16 set the standard for all the fighters that followed, right on through to the beginning of the jet age.
The I-16 was a dominant fighter for most of the Spanish Civil War - while early Messerschmitt Bf-109s came in late in the war and offered some performance advantages over the I-16, pilot skill was often the margin between success and failure. Later, in the far-eastern border clash between Imperial Japanese forces based in the puppet state of Manchukuo (occupied Manchuria) and Soviet armed forces based in Mongolia - the Khalkhin Gol "incident" - the I-16 proved more than a match for the supremely maneuverable Nakajima Ki-27 fighter.
However, by 1941, the I-16 was long past its prime - but for a variety of reasons, the Soviets didn't have enough of the next- replacement aircraft in squadron service, and the now-obsolete I-16 had to soldier on. Many brave Soviet pilots died in 1941 and 1942 - and in some cases, into the early months of 1943 - for the "crime" of being assigned to front-line fighter planes that should have been relegated to ground attack or advanced-training duties. In spite of the I-16's antique-status, more than a few exceptional pilots actually racked-up impressive success rates while flying these museum-piece fighters. These include Red Banner Baltic Fleet Lieutenant Senior Grade G. Tsokolayev, Lieutenant Senior Grade G. G. Guryakov, five-victory ace Lt. Krichevskiy, another well-known ace - Boris F. Safonov - and Hero of the Soviet Union Vasiliy Golubev.
The long and the short of the I-16 is this: In it's prime, this aircraft was the best in the world at what it did; and even though it was used long after it should have been retired, in the hands of a skilled pilot, the plane could still hold it's own in combat with the vaunted German Luftwaffe.
This book - Polikarpov's I-16 Fighter - captures the essence of this remarkable aircraft. The narrative text tells the story if it's creation, development and combat career. The illustrations will appeal to aircraft history/technology buffs and modelers alike. Strongly recommended!

Aviation historians often dismiss the Polyikarpov I-16 because it did not fare well against its more modern adversaries in WWII. It was often referred to in the West by the disparaging nickname of Rata, the Russian word for rat! Nikolay Polyikarpov's I-16 was nevertheless an outstanding fighter in its day--among other things, because it was the world's first monoplane fighter with a retractable undercarriage. Its capabilities were demonstrated effectively during the Spanish Civil War and it was still in front line service when the German armed forces fell on the Soviet Union in 1941. This book details every variant of this diminutive fighter, including development aircraft and unbuilt projects. An account is also given of Polyikarpov's early monoplane fighters that presaged the I-16 and of the later designs that evolved from it. Details are given of all surviving examples including the six aircraft that were restored to airworthy condition in Russia in the 1990s.

Star Trek and Philosophy: The Wrath of Kant (Popular Culture and Philosophy) Review

Star Trek and Philosophy: The Wrath of Kant (Popular Culture and Philosophy)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
What I liked:
-Specific references to a lot of episodes of all of the series from the original through the most recent.
-Specific references to the philosophy of several famous philosophers.
-Covered topics I have pondered upon, such as why we want to live in the Federation
-Managed to work in a couple of the humorous Ferengi laws of acquisition
What kept me from giving it 5:
-Could have been a little more entertaining, there were some dry patches - I actually enjoyed an audio tape of the Ferengi rules of Acquisition more from an entertainment perspective
-Perhaps taken a less of a classical philosophy view on why people like Star Trek and instead branched out to suggest some more revolutionary ideas on why we like it so much - kind of like the movie Trekkies started to get into

Philosophy and space travel are characterized by the same fundamental purpose: exploration. An essential guide for both philosophers and Trekkers, Star Trek and Philosophy combines a philosophical spirit of inquiry with the beloved television and film series to consider questions not only about the scientific prospects of interstellar travel but also the inward journey to examine the human condition. The expansive topics range from the possibilities for communication among different cultural backgrounds to questions about the stoic temperament exhibited by Vulcans to Ferengi business practices. Specifically chosen to break new ground in exploring the philosophical dimensions of Star Trek, these articles boldly go where no philosopher has gone before.

Nineteen Stars: A Study in Military Character and Leadership Review

Nineteen Stars: A Study in Military Character and Leadership
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
"Nineteen Stars" is not intended to be the definitive biographies of Generals Eisenhower, Bradley, Marshall, and Patton, but rather a study of their leadership styles illustrated with specific examples. Puryear provides enough background information on each general to put the various decisions and actions into an understandable context. As a study of leadership and management styles of four successful but very different military leaders, this book accomplishes its goals. Puryear gives the reader adequate appreciation of these general officers and the contributions they made, not to just the war effort, but to the military in general.
Again, this is not intended to be full-blown biographies on these military leaders, but rather a leadership study for young officers and officer candidates. However, this book will serve as an able introduction to the lives of these fascinating men, and will probably inspire a broader audience than just military members to look into more indepth works on these key leaders.

Five Star Science Fiction/Fantasy - Siege of Night and Fire: A Novel of the Eightfold Kingdoms Review

Five Star Science Fiction/Fantasy - Siege of Night and Fire: A Novel of the Eightfold Kingdoms
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Whether you believe that fantasy is making a huge comeback, led by the recent success of both the Harry Potter series and the recent Lord of the Rings films (as the optimists among us are inclined to do) or that these are mere blips on an otherwise barren landscape of same elf, different day (as the more cynical of us claim), there can be no doubt that a great deal of fantasy has for some time followed the same predictable recipe: take one young person of little reputation and less self-confidence (though with enormous potential below the surface), place him/her in impossible circumstances under which all (including him/herself) expect him/her to fail, add an appropriately evil character against which he/she will be tested, throw in a dash of magic and at least a hint of romance, and mix well. Bake, rinse, and repeat. Of course there are exceptions to this rule, works which clearly break away from the norm, but these are few and far between--and even more troubling, there are even fewer works which handle the existing formula well, in an interesting, intelligently written, and engaging way. If you're not going to reinvent the wheel every time you write a work of fantasy (and why should you have to?), at least it would be nice if the hubcaps shine on the works you do produce!
It's good to know, then, that at least some writers are now demonstrating their ability to write in this latter category. J. Gregory Keyes's new series THE KINGDOMS OF THORN AND BONE is a wonderful example of this work, and it's great to see that John Helfers is another writer who understands what works and, even better, how to deliver what works to his readers. Not that Helfers is a newcomer to the field--he has both edited and written a host of books and short story collections in both science fiction and fantasy over the past decade, and his reputation as a solid and competent writer is already well-established. But with THE SIEGE OF NIGHT AND FIRE, the first book in the world of the Eightfold Kingdoms, Helfers enters the fantasy novel market with a flourish. As the summary at Amazon and elsewhere will tell you, the book follows the adventures of Teris Rathden, youngest brother of the Rathden family (here's the young person of little reputation and less self-confidence) and Syrena Marsena, daughter of the rival Marsena clan (the necessary love interest), brought together for a political marriage which is immediately disrupted by an all out attack by the enemies of all the Eightfold Kingdoms, the Vaarbolg. Forced by circumstances beyond his control to lead the defense of his keep against the enemies' siege, Teris learns quickly the dangers and, perhaps, the joys of leadership, quickly growing from a mischievous ne'er do well to a confident man in full charge of his faculties at the end of the tale, which moves quickly and expertly between large scale combat to surprisingly poignant moments of intimacy between Teris and Syrena (who, as it turns out, is much more than just a pretty face). Through it all Helfers demonstrates facility and skill in moving and manipulating his readers, and through love and loss we come to genuinely care about his characters--no small feat for what is essentially a book of war.
As a military historian himself, Helfers knows how to write his battle scenes, and the combat never feels forced here, nor overly glamorous. Just the opposite, in fact; this is gritty fantasy too, and at times the sheer detail of the horrible deaths suffered in times of war can be a bit offputting if one isn't expecting it. Gratuitous, no; gruesome, yes, and you won't find a lot of Rivendell-esque pleasantness to lighten the grim military mood. And especially towards the end of the book, the narrative leaps so quickly from scene to scene that you can feel a trifle discombobulated--if you've ever seen these movies, imagine throwing SPEED and the fight scenes from THE BOURNE IDENTITY or BATMAN BEGINS together and you'll get the idea. But then, a siege itself might feel much like this; no time to think, no real time to plan, just observe the movements of the enemy and react accordingly. I'd trust Helfers' judgement on this, in any case; he establishes enough credibility in the book's beginning that one is willing to follow him through to its conclusion, and the payoff is well worth the journey. In the meantime, it's one hell of a ride.
This is not blazingly new work, but it is something arguably much more important--well-written and intelligent fantasy, carefully crafted by someone who clearly knows his field and how to move comfortably within it. The ending leaves a lot of open ground to cover in future books, and I for one am glad of it; it's about time we saw classic themes presented in ways that remind us why they became classic, and it's good to know that we can look forward to having John Helfers guide us through those themes for many books to come. This is quality work by a quality author.

Teris and Syrena's wedding was supposed to prevent a war between their two kingdoms, but fate intervened with a much darker plan. Now Teris, Syrena, and dozens of others are trapped in an isolated keep, surrounded by a vicious army led by a cunning, inhuman war shaman. Teris must lead an uneasy alliance to victory over their relentless foe, if he doesn't get killed in the fighting first. However, the young groom has allies at his side - starting with his new bride - but can the two of them stand together against foes both inside and outside the keep? When all seems lost, Teris risks everything on a strike into the enemy's camp, and takes a vital first step toward becoming the leader of his kingdom.John Helfers is an author and editor currently living in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

Inside the Worlds of Star Wars, Episode I - The Phantom Menace: The Complete Guide to the Incredible Locations Review

Inside the Worlds of Star Wars, Episode I - The Phantom Menace: The Complete Guide to the Incredible Locations
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Have the ultimate experience of The Phantom Menace by extending your understanding with this book.
This book is an excellent expansion of the basic story line of Episode I. Based on reading it, you will have much more appreciation for that movie and the later ones in the series.
The book contains star charts to show you where key planets are located (like Naboo, Tatooine, Coruscant, Alderaan, Corellia), which makes many of the plots much easier to understand.
Beyond that benefit, you get detailed maps of each of the planets where action occurs in Episode I. This allows you to see how the various story lines relate to each other spatially. For example, you can see how the Gungan capital of Otoh Gunda relates to the Naboo capital of Theed. In the case of Naboo, this is supplemented with a geological cutaway of the planet to show you how the two capitals are connected by the ocean.
Next, each city is also mapped. So you see the details of Otoh Gunda, Theed, Mos Espa on Tatooine, and the central area of Coruscant. Then specific buildings and space ships are also shown in cutaways. These include the Droid control ship, Watto's junkshop, Anakin's hovel, the Jedi Temple, the Imperial Senate, and the arena for pod races on Tatooine.
Action sequences are then detailed so that you can see where and when each step takes place. This is done for the duel with Darth Maul and Jedi Qui-Gon Jiun and Obi-Wan Kenobi in the Theed palace generator. You also get the battle between the droids and the Gungans. But the best is the full map of the pod race course, with annotations for where each major part of the race's events occurred.
All of these maps are enlivened by detailed notes on the geology, technology, and history of the places displayed. There are many references to Senator Palpatine and the sources of power on Naboo that will be of interest. I thought the expanded information about the Gungan city was especially well done.
The illustrations are new in many cases, which also adds to the reader's pleasure.
My only complaint is that there are several pages with no new information and no interesting detail. An editor should have taken this out or substituted better content. The only argument in their favor is that they help remind you of the story's continuity.
This must have been a lot of fun to create. My suggestion is that you take another story you like and make a similar series of maps and notes. If you have children or grandchildren, this could be a fun project to do together. You might consider Alice in Wonderland as a first subject. Or if you have a friend who loves Star Wars, you could expand on Episode I or any of the other stories in the same way.
May the Force be with you . . . always!

Got my copy this morning, finished it by this afternoon. It was an engaging read. I think appreciation of it benefits from being an ArenaNet/Guild Wars fan, especially with the lore touches. If you've been following ArenaNet's gradual release of information about the upcoming Guild Wars 2, I think you'll really get the most out of this novel. I loved seeing this new and updated world of Tyria, along with just the right amount of touches and callbacks to the amazing lore and history of the original. The characters were well-realized and the various new races quite intriguing. I think this will mostly appeal to existing fans or those that are interested in the new game...

This is the best volume so far of this series. A fast reading and excellent discription of the air war around Leningrad. The best was the portion of the book in the Caucasus air war. The description of the battle around Stalingrad was good but only gave one side of the description from either side in details many times about incidents.Christer Berstrom as always gives a very interesting view of the air war in the Arctic. I still believe it's one of the best descriptions so far to come of this aspect of the war in Russia. This seems to be winning team working on these volumes. Now I'm waiting for volume 4 to finish the story for this campaign in the south. Check out Vlad Antipov's book on "Dragon's On Bird Wings" for further reading of the southern air war from a Russian fighter regiment's view of Stalingrad and the war in the south.
