Anyone read John Ringoe?

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Anyone read John Ringoe?

Just finished the 3rd in the series out of 4.
they are
A Hymn Before Battle
Gustfront
Dance with the devil ?
Hell's Faire

It is pretty good for a first effort I like this type of "Military Sci FI"
Anyone read this series or any thing else by him?
For those of you who where in the military should recognize and enjoy all the references.
Comments ? Critiscism?

People died for your freedoms so you can sit and whine years later about how they didn't do anything for you. BAH! what a bunch of insolent selfish puppies.

@ssjgarretjax: never heard of the guy, but in the references I saw David Weber, which is a familiar name - I read some stuff written by him alone and together with a co-author Steve White. If it's in the same style, could be worth reading. However, if it's closer to Edmond Hamilton, then not. Military SciFi is too wide an area to be sure - after several letdowns I've become more selective in this field.
Anyway, I'll check it out - I found a book seller who gives me books to read, and then I either buy them or return them back with no fee. I guess I'm lucky

An idea came to my head and is now desperately searching for brain
