Pros

I really appreciate someone doing their homework to make sure they are not misrepresenting things. This book definitely deserves five stars! Second is a slight error i believe is a result of added material in the 2nd addition. Minor complaint but stil...  Read More

Larry coarreia is a gun expert and goes to great lengths to show his expertise. I'm not a gun person - the entirety of my knowledge and understanding comes from playing fallout and doom - so my eyes tend to glaze over at the loving descriptions.



Cons

The book is full of clichés and clichés.

This book mixes fantasy of a socially troubled teen who masturbates to gun magazines, with cartoon logic. This book seems to have come from the musings of a pubescent boy. It's tied together with a pathetic, loathsome main character.

There'll be no character development here, just a bunch of manliness. The near-nonexistent use of contractions in both narration (by the rough, gruff pov character) and dialogue (from everyone) is terribly jarring.

    Ive read this book 10 times this is the second or third copy i have gotten first one is ruined due to being on an adventure across the country


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Too often in other stories the main characters rely on their magic powers for unexplained reasons when they would be better off using a gun

    Sure some monsters are resistant or immune to lead bullets but there are usually plenty that arent as well although you might need big guns for big monsters or special materials for others

    I think larry correia is a decent human being i believe he has been slandered by the writing industry and authors at large for his views on 2a politics and religion


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I do have some criticisms of his writing style but i figured id better make it clear where i stand before you read any further


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    There are multiple firefights that take place and its obvious correia is drawing from his experience as a firearms instructor


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Not being very familiar with firearms myself i did at times find my eyes glazing over at a few lengthy explanations of how certain guns work


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    There were also a couple of fight sequences that seemed to drag at points as well however this had more to do with the conflicts being too serious in my opinion
