Loved it. The story itself, loved it. At the same time I can't stop bitching about annoying things in the book, either. Just go through my updates, some of it is there. What I disliked the most is uneven writing, perfectly clear picture one moment and the next is like looking through a dusty window ...

The Dark Edge of Honor was a good read, but I think I expected too much. It felt like the book tried to be many things, but failed in its execution of to be great at any one of them. Yet despite my underwhelming feelings in regard to this book, it still maintained to grab my attention slightly with ...

The story is kind of similar to "Special Forces" by Aleksandr Voinov - an armed conflict, soldiers from opposite sides falling in love, and Doctrine suspiciously similar to Soviet Union. Sadly, the book didn't evoke as strong emotions as the "Special Forces" series, but it was still well written and...

4.75 stars rounded up. Look, to be honest, I almost gave up after the first chapter because I had no idea what was going on. In my opinion it's a very weak first chapter, BUT it gets better and better as you read after that. Just to give you an idea of how much I loved this book: I usually avoid sci...

This book was amazing, I am becoming a fast fan of Aleksandr Voinov and his books. This is my second from the author and I have loved both. Dark Edge Of Honor is a gritty book about an officer and a spy. Its not based in our world, but has a good story that is easy to follow. I fell in love with bot...

Cunningly-wrought plot. Almost gorgeous in its symmetry and opportunity for satisfying conflict. Predicament so dramatically fertile, it could easily have powered even more delicious tension for another hundred pages.The voice in the prose was more playful than what I've seen of Mr. Voinov's catalog...

This book felt not dissimilar in the beginning to the Special Forces by Voinov, apart from the whole 'nother planet' thing. Soldiers on opposing sides, desolate countryside and meeting in a shifty apartment in the city of hookups. It all felt so deliciously familiar. But, the more I read and the mor...

4.5 Stars*****slight spoilersThis was a great book. I fell head over heels in love with Sergei. Sergei Stolkov is a Captain in the Doctrine. Sergei is part of the force that is trying to take control of the planet Cirokko. He is young and naive. Although he is a loyal soldier, his deepes...

This certainly isn't a book about a sweet romance – it's a book about war, trust, duty, honor and also love. The beginning is a bit slow, but after that I could barely put this book down. Mike and Sergei's story is dark, violent and at times heartbreaking. And boy, am I glad it all ended well! I nea...
