ONE OF THE BEST!.......2007-04-23

I have come to love Dee Henderson's books. I read all four of the Uncommon Heroes and this one is second only to True Honor. The romance between Gracie and Stryker is heartwarming. The numerous letters between them add to rather than detract from the story. I've read the book twice and it was just as good the second time around. I recommend it to anyone who enjoys reading a good war time romance.

Wait for the next one.......2006-08-09

This book may be what you were looking for, but it's not as good as "True Morality", where Lt. Joe Bates turns his machine gun on a crowd of American Marines who were preparing to attack a girls' school, after having beaten several of the teachers to death. Lt. Bates reasoned that if raping teenage girls was immoral in southern Alabama, it was also immoral in southern Iraq. Unfortunately, he wins no medals for this.

YUK!.......2006-02-22

By far the worst Dee Henderson book I have read. I have always enjoyed her books - but this one just puts me to sleep!

A Memorable Story.......2005-08-01

I usually like romance set in a military setting, because only during the toughest times can we find out how strong the bond is. Gracie and Bruce are really beautiful people, who have such a strong devotion to each other and the people around them. Their careers bring them to dangerous places (not just physically) and through very hard times, and yet their friendship and love survive smoothly. One can only hope that real life could have such strong bonds.
Anyone who likes romance woven with elements of action and danger will enjoy this book. Dee writes with great, vivid details. Thanks for a great read!

Overall good read..........2005-07-13

It's become so hard to rate Dee Henderson's books since I've come to expect so much from her. She's an incredibly good author who always shows that she's done her research well.
With my dad being an airplane mechanic for Lockheed-Martin, who manufacturers USA's defense aircrafts, I know a bit about the planes and procedures she so explicably describes throughout the book, since one of the main characters (Gracie) is a pilot. I must say that Henderson is very good at being knowledgeable about not only her characters, but their lives and careers as well. Great job in that aspect.
I did, however, think that the story line was a little slow. Correspondance from Gracie to Bruce, the other main character, was very often through letters, so it just didn't seem as enticing a read to me.
I will admit that I could be biased, since I knew so much about the aircraft procedures, that information seemed redundant to me, but the overall plot didn't have the punch I expected from Henderson.
If you're interested in learning about Gracie's naval career, it will make a good read, but if you're not, you won't be missing anything if you skip this book...

Famous Fire Service Stories.......2006-11-25

I originally bought this book used for something like two bucks, expecting very little from it. Just another one of my fire-guy books that I like to read.

I was quite pleasantly surprised when I realized that many of the stories were ones I knew or had heard told and re-told in the fire academy and in the firehouse. They were well-researched and well-told versions of stories that I only ever knew the "gist" of. Famous rescues made by firefighters famous in the fire service: The woman they cut out of the collapse of a building also on fire during the 1989 San Francisco quake. Atlanta FF Matt Mosely rescuing a worker off a crane while dangling from a helicopter. The Worcester 6 in 1999. The double rope rescues made by Paddy Brown, Paddy Barr, and Kevin Shea in NYC in 1991 that was the inspiration for the rope rescue in the movie Ladder 49.

This is not a throw-away book, it's a must for anyone serious about the lore and legend of the fire service.

Shows kids the sacrifices the greatest generation made.......2007-03-29

I am almost 20 now, but I remeber reading this book when I was about 8 or 9 and really enjoying it. I've always had an interest in World War II and this book gave me an insight to the war that many kids probably don't get but could benefit quite a bit from. It has a variety of true stories that were pretty easy to follow about heroes of World War II. There weren't too many books available on this subject aimed at kids and I remember finding this book interesting and a worthwile read.

A first person impression of military justice ( or injustice???).......2007-04-15

This is a book about the subject of Son Thang 4 by a combatant that was actually there. I have read the other two books about this incident; Gary Solis' book as well as Denny Garrison's. I enjoy this book the most because it is written by the man who was actually there.
The story is a history of Randy Herrod's time in Vietnam. The story begins with him serving under Lt.Oliver North, yes that North, and being recommended for the Silver Star for courage under fire (which he later receives). It ends with his trial for a war crime (sixteen counts of premeditated murder) and acquittal of the same.
MR. Herrod gives the impressions he received of the military without pulling any punches. The book is raw but well written and a easy read. (I read it cover to cover in a day). It is the accurate depiction of what happened to MR. Herrod in Vietnam.
For an equal read, read the book by Gary Solis which explains the Prosecutions version of the case. I believe this (Solis')is a one sided view of the incident. Leaving out key pieces of evidence or placing the evidence in a different area. I do not question Mr. Solis' military prowess, writing ability, or legal mind; but it is difficult to piece together what happened at the trial of these marines without actually being at the trial. Trnascripts do not do jury trials justice. However, it is my understanding that there were no transcripts produced of the Herrod trial.
I believe that Denny Garrison's book is also good because Denny was there in the Courtroom for all of the trials and refers to his trial noted taken from the actual case in preparation of the book. The key to the Garrison book is the fact that there was evidence of an M-60 machine gun nest used by the VC to fire onto the village at US troops. The only defendant that had the benefit of this testimony was Herrod; although the nest was discovered shortly after the Son Thang incident, and the gun was turned over to military intelligence-who misplaced the weapon. This is key to the defense because the ear witnesses to the incident remember the distinct sound of an M-60 being fired although Herrod's Killer squad did not have a 60.
Overall this is a great read. I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Herrod before I read the book and then talked with him after reading it. Mr. Herrod is the one who recommended the other two books to me. I have read all accounts and believe that the report of this crime is the tragedy. Wars are drastic things that call for drastic measures. Life or death decisions are made on instinct. Perhaps in the future of warfare ID badges and enemy cards will be issued to better identify who is a combatant and who is not. Interesting however, that the village in Question was SON THANG 4. According to research into the area the Vietnamese government numbered there villages 1-4. 1 was all friendly. 2 was mostly friendly with a few enemies. 3 was enemy with a few friendly's and 4 was all enemy. Another piece of evidence kept out of the trial.
Perhaps we will never know exactly what happened at SON THANG 4. As it goes in the justice system our guilty defendants are proven to be innocent by the media and our acquited defendants are proven to be guilty.

Herrod's side of the Son Thang Massacre........2006-02-27

I thought the writing for this book was above average and the story was very readable. I guess I am going to have to read Son Thang, An American War Crime by Solis to get the other side. Herrod portrays his story of serving under Oliver North during the Vietnam War. His portrayal of Lt. North resulted in me gaing a new respect for someone I don't like politically. As another reviewer has already stated, Herrod's account may be self serving.

What did happen at Son Thang. Herrod says that people shot at him and his four companions on the hunter-killer team. One bullet grazed the neck of his buddy, and shot away the rifle stock on his M-16. They were then chased but to the fire base. North provided compelling testimony of Herrod's character. His defense resulted in his acquittal. At the end, there were 16-17 dead civilians, some of whom may have been Viet Cong.

The story is very readable. This tells one side of the story. The book on Son Thang tells the other side. Marines were placed in the difficult position here. At this point, I am not sure what is true and what is not.

Lies, all lies!!!.......2005-03-25

This whole book was not true. The author stated a bunch of falsehoods in this book. I agree with the other 2 ratings up here. If you want a TRUE account of what happened, read the book by Gary Solis.

War fiction at its worst.......2001-07-18

A blatant example of self-serving prose meant to whitewash the heinous crime that was committed at Son Thang. Based on a faulty premise, that the investigation was sparked by a report from a green lieutenant, Herrod's book reads like the whine of a child caught in mischief. The mischief this time, though, was the murder of non-combatants, all women and children. Herrod managed to get off with an all-star defense team. Maybe he should hit the lecture circuit with OJ

Good book, but get the facts straight on Randy Herrod.......2000-08-07

Read Son Thang, Am American War Crime, by Gary Solis, to get the whole story on Oliver North's actions in the court martial case of United States vs. Randy Herrod. Herrod was never sentenced to death. He was not even convicted for his role in the killing of 17 Vietnamese women and children. Although the other members of the fire team he lead were all convicted or plead guilty, Herrod was acquitted, based in no small part on the testimony of his former Platoon Commander, Oliver North.

Book Description

Presenting a microcosm of the police profession, Tinged Valor exposes the source of a perpetual trend of police misconduct and reveals, through personal knowledge or very privileged information, the seedy underbelly of law enforcement. The accounts contained in this manuscript depict the goings-on within the Metropolitan Police Department during the 1990s—a decade in which the members experienced severe trials, performed snide trickery, celebrated brief triumphs, and endured great tragedies. Serving to introduce readers to the “real” police, Tinged Valor blends the author's shocking experiences (from police academy to actual patrol) with the layman's penchant for exposing a good mystery. All views are true and provide an accurate glimpse into the world of policing that few will ever admit to and even fewer are aware of. The names of significant persons and places have been changed to protect the innocent as well as the culpable.

Book Description

For fans of fast-paced adventure and compelling characters, the military science fiction of Nebula Award—winning author Elizabeth Moon is the perfect choice.

The brilliantly unorthodox Kylara Vatta, black-sheep scion of Vatta Transport Ltd., one of the galaxy’s wealthiest merchant houses, is a heroine like no other, blessed with a killer instinct for business and for battle. Now, in the aftermath of cold-blooded assassinations that have left her parents dead and the Vatta shipping empire shattered, Kylara faces her greatest challenge yet.

There is a time for grief and a time for revenge. This is decidedly the latter. Placing her cousin Stella in command of the trading vessel Gary Tobai, Ky embarks aboard the captured pirate ship Fair Kaleen on a twofold mission: to salvage the family business and to punish those responsible for the killings . . . before they strike again.

Since the network providing instantaneous communication between star systems has been sabotaged, news is hard to come by and available information impossible to trust. But as she travels from system to system, with Stella a step behind, Ky pieces together the clues and discovers a conspiracy of terrifying scope, breathtaking audacity, and utter ruthlessness.

The only hope the independent systems and merchants have against this powerful enemy is to band together. Unfortunately, because she commands a ship known to belong to a notorious pirate–her own relative Osman Vatta, whom she killed for his part in her parents’ deaths–Ky is met with suspicion, if not outright hostility. Rumors swirl about her intent, her very identity. Soon even Stella begins to question her cousin’s decisions and her authority to make them.

Meanwhile, the conspiracy Ky hunts is hunting her in turn, with agents insinuated into every space station, every planetary government, every arm of the military, and every merchant house–including her own. Before she can take the fight to the enemy, Kylara must survive a deadly minefield of deception and betrayal.

From the Hardcover edition.

Customer Reviews:

Worth the slog.......2007-07-05

Much has been made of this book being the first difficult read in the Vatta's War series. It is. The middle portion of the novel turns into something of a job. (In her charming acknowledgments, Moon self-deprecatingly thanked friends and family for curbing her tendencies to go into too much detail; unfortunately, one wishes she had curbed those tendencies even more.)

Happily, the last hundred pages turn things around significantly, thanks to the entertainment derived from one antagonist's intriguing accusations (and his fate) followed swiftly by an excellent space battle. So, if you're slogging through the middle of "Engaging the Enemy," have heart that the "job" becomes pleasure at the end--and reviews have been kinder to book four.

Lame and slow.......2007-06-12

As others have noted, this is a middle volume of a series. However, I can't be as kind. I find the most of the characters' emotions and motivations in this volume unconvincing. The plot is boring and lame too. I enjoyed "Trading in Danger" and "Marque and Reprisal," but this volume stunk.

So-So.......2007-05-22

Elizabeth Moon is a self-hating fishbelly.

If you can overlook that trite PC episode -- which I almost couldn't -- you will find this book on balance enjoyable.

Engaging The Enemy.......2007-05-15

Elizabeth Moon's Engaging The Enemy is an entertaining Sci-Fi tale of a space trading company's tragedy. The Vattas are attacked by space pirates and it's the story of how Ky takes revenge. The Vatta Corporation is lead by Ky; the sole surviving daughter who is left to deal with all the destruction. The novel takes place in the future in cold black space, and among the outlying planets of the star cluster. The author describes the situation and makes the reader feel right there with the captain up on the bridge of the flag ship. The novel is full of action, twists, and a bizarre love triangle. It's a must read for the adventure type.

Engaging the Enemy.......2007-05-14

this is the third book in the series and i've found it just as interesting as the others. one thing i really like is that each book goes straight into the next one I cant wait to get to book four. also the story line is great and keeps you interested all the way through, i haven't found one dull bit yet.

Engaging the Enemy

Two complete novels by #1 New York Times bestselling author NORA ROBERTS

A Will and a Way: It wasn't easy living with her infuriating co-beneficiary, Michael Donohue -- even to fulfill her uncle's last wishes -- but headstrong Pandora McVie found it still harder not falling in love with her nemesis.

Boundary Lines: Feisty Jillian Baron and irresistibly arrogant Aaron Murdock seemed determined to carry their families' feud into another generation. But the battle waged within their own hearts pitted their mistrust against overwhelming desire.

3 1/2 stars for me.......2006-02-10

Nora Roberts writes with ease and confidence. Her prose is always lucid and her plots are credible. Characterization is one of Nora's strengths, with people being revealed rather than described, thereby allowing the reader to engage the text with greater intimacy. This aspect of her writing was recently discussed during an interview with David Letterman on the 'Tonight Show', and at the conclusion of the interview, Letterman's side-kick, Paul Shaffer, screamed out at the top of his voice, 'Hey Nora! I engaged the enemy 20 years ago. Then I married her.' To her credit, Ms Roberts ignored the buffoon's comments and maintained a dignified, Harpo Marx-like silence, concluding the interview with a honk of her bicycle horn. It was a telling moment.

ENGAGING THE ENEMY.......2005-09-28

THE BOOK ITSELF WAS QUITE "ENGAGING" AND HELD MY ATTENTION TO THE END. I JUST LOVE THE WAY NORA ROBERTS HOLDS YOUR ATTENTION TO THE VERY END.

Engaging redux!.......2004-08-30

Not until I was into this did I realize I had read it before. But it's still Nora and it was still entertaining.

A Will and a Way was entertaining but Boundary Lines was fascinating in that I think Nora was practicing for her ".....In Death" series. Some of the dialogue between Jillian and Aaron was quite the same as some of the interchange between Eve and Roarke. I loved it anyway!!! It's an addition to my collection.

To her credit, Ms Roberts ignored the buffoon's comments and maintained a dignified, Harpo Marx-like silence, concluding the interview with a honk of her bicycle horn. It was a telling moment.

Kissing Cousins and Love Thy Neighbor.......2004-04-19

This is a two-story anthology, both written by Nora Roberts.

A WILL AND A WAY: Pandora McVie and Michael Donahue are cousins, if only by marriage. They both adored their Uncle Jolley, but their relationship with each other has always been antagonistic. Uncle Jolley had played matchmaker between them before and failed, but now he's trying again, from the great beyond. His estate is worth one hundred fifty million dollars, to be split equally between Pandora and Michael, but there's a catch. They have to move into his mansion in the Catskills and live there together for six months. If they fail, the inheritance reverts to their shallow and greedy family members. Their family, of course, conspires and uses trickery to drive them out.

BOUNDARY LINES: Jillian Baron inherited her Montana cattle ranch from her grandfather, and works tirelessly to keep it functioning at optimum level. The Barons have been feuding for generations with the neighboring ranch owners, the Murdocks. Aaron Murdock has just recently returned to assist his father with the running of the Double M. The chemistry between Jillian and Aaron is unmistakable, but someone is stealing cattle from Jillian, and all signs point to the Murdocks.

These stories were originally published separately as Silhouette Intimate Moments back in the mid 80's. I enjoyed both, and felt they each had pretty much stood the test of time. The first story felt only slightly dated. If you didn't read them when originally published, they would serve well for good, light summer reading. Separately, I would rate the first story 3 ½ stars, and the second one 4 ½ stars. Ms. Roberts does a good job portraying these volatile romances, a type I'm quite partial to reading.

Learning Spiritual Warfare.......1999-12-08

I found that Mr. Wagner's book is very helpful for me. I am involved, in my congregation, with spiritual warfare and found this book to have many helpful Scriptures for a basis but also working tools for the warfare that we are involved in. If you are wanting to know how to do battle with Satan's forces, this is a must have book.

I highly recommend this book.......1999-04-13

This is an excellent book and one of many resources I used for an elaborate paper I wrote on territorial spirits. I encourage you to prayerfully do a study on this subject. I assure you that territorial spirits are as real as a heart attack and clearly evident. Missionaries and evangelists throughout the world have witnessed the power of these demons and the tremendous results when their power is defeated by nothing other than prayer and intercession.

Peter Wagner does an excellent job giving you a complete textbook of teaching and real-life experiences in this book. Peter Wagner also emphasizes the need for balance in our prayer and study when it comes to the enemy. I have found Peter Wagner to be well-balanced and yet extremely informative and targeted.

I would also recommend reading all of his other books (almost all of which I have read) which are very informative and helpful for all of us. There is a battle raging and people are dying all around us. I encourage you to look at the real-life examples in this book and learn how the enemy operates. May the Lord bless your ministry!

A VERY BALANCED APPROACH.......2007-04-26

The author doesn't believe there is a "demon behind every bush," but she also doesn't hide behind the fact that spiritual warfare is a necessary part of a believers life. The best chapter (and they are all great) was the one on what she calls "cognitive process" where she teaches you how to identify and take thoughts captive and how to overcome strongholds. This book WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE. It is rich in Biblical support and encouragement. It has done wonders in all my relationships.

Superb Book.......2006-03-21

I am a pastor and will heartily refer many of those I counsel to purchase this book. It offers many insightful ways to battle the spirit world. Montgomery teaches the reader how to take thoughts captive, the power of the tongue, and how to equip themselves for battle. Additionally, she unfolds her own past which inculded occultism and witchcraft, and her conversion to Christianity. It's a powerful book for both men and women. It also provides depth and enough information that you'll find yourself going back again and again to refamiliarize yourself with the spiritual techniques she teaches. Once I picked it up, I couldn't put it down. I bought copies for other people and they said the same thing.
