I have to say I enjoyed the first 5 books, although the 5 only seemed equal to 2 full length books. Book 6 was tolerable, but too short as is this one. Together they might equal 1 book…maybe. I am disappointed that the story has deteriorated into a conservative rant and some kind of tree hugger diatribe. I am just over the angst, hand ringing, poor parenting, and internal dialogue that has used up the book.
I have been around army rangers and other service people in my life. I can’t believe that this indecisive hand wringer could have ever been an elite soldier, parent or not. Too much hesitancy and poor decision making, too much ignoring of past lessons, and just too much “I just can’t believe this is happening” from everyone in the story. From my own experience it only takes one life threatening event involving other people or animals to wake a person up, at least partially. So sad, this could have been so good.
Next time leave out the condescension towards the cities, business, and the Democrats. Although I am not a city dweller everyone in America is to blame for the state of our country, not just politicians or business. We The People are the ones truly responsible for the fate of ourselves and our country.
I won’t be finishing the series, and I want my money back for this one.
