So this book series is fun …. sad, and although there are politics built in they are from different points of view. Who could writs a book about this subject and not have some politics in it. My only problem is when i finished book 4 there was no book 5. I loved that the main character was not some 30-40 year old hero with a ton of military back ground. I loved that they were all flawed! If this did happen i could see it play out much like this. Cant wait to see wat these folks get up to next!
