Escalante (The Fixer, #0.5) von Andrew Vaillencourt
Gave up on this one quickly. I just couldn't get in sync with the writing. Nothing clicked for me at all. No rating.
Annoying errors
This is a decent story that kept tripping over errors. Proofreading is not optional in shorter works.
Also, the line where the fly meets belt and the edge of the shirt is called a ‘gig’ line, not ‘jig’. And an E-7 would not likely be called a Corporal in Boston. Sergeant, at least.
If you intend to write MilSF, then do your homework.

**** SPOILER ALERT ****
This is my first introduction to Vaillencourt's work.
The author provides an action packed enjoyable tale.
Vaillencourt does a great job of world building in this novella, I suspect that he has gone right on crafting the "Fixer" "universe" in the succeeding novels.
Question: What does a seven foot, half tonne cyborg do when he wants to stay "below the radar" of his former organisation?
Answer: Grab this novel, read it, and find out!
For transparency, I was given a copy of this book. This is my own honest opinion.… (mehr)
