Everything in the entire book was so awsome. I enjoyed it so much that I just couldn't put it down. The only part that kept it from being a perfect 5 star book was that there were english errors...many of them. It seems to be a very ameture writing styles. It's what took me out of the "zone" I get into when reading a good book and say to myself..."hmm...that's not right."

One of the very very first Battletch novels written, "Decision at Thunder Rift", which started the saga of the Grey Death Legion, is also one of the best stories created in the Battletech Universe. A young man is forced into command of a mercenary unit, trains non-Mechwarrior's to join his new unit, and takes on an invading force. Sound familiar?
It should, because this is also the basic plot of "Ghost of Winter", the very first in the Mechwarrior series from FASA, and a part of the Battletech Universe.
This book is an absolute mess. The characters are shallow, the pacing is absurdly quick, motivations are ridiculous, etc. The Battletch series has produced a number of excellent books; it's a shame that FASA decided to start the Mechwarrior series with such a piece of worthless tripe. The scary part is the ending of this book, which leaves room for a sequel. Perish the thought. Please?

Thanks

Ghost of Winter is an excellent book. Although the pacing is a little off in the beginning of the book, and a few plot threads never pan out, I would recommend it to anyone who is just getting started with Battletech and Mechwarrior. I hope to see more of Sturm and the Winter Ghosts in the future

At very first I thought this was going to be another good guys on planet and evil bad guys come rushing in. Kenson suprised me. After I read through about 40 to 50 pages I couldn't put the book down. It was suspensful while entertaining, with of course a brilliant story line. The ending was also awesome (though I won't spoil it for anyone who hasen't read it yet), though it pretty stereo typical. Anyway, awesome book to start off a new series, if you haven't got. GET IT.
