The other morning,I wanted something new to read in the Military Sci Fi category(mercifully I am all done with Ice and Fire),so I fired up the Kindle.Being new to this genre,I'm very much feeling my way around.What I settled on was "Chronos",by Tom Ciolli.

Let me start by saying that I am only halfway through this book,but have very much been impressed with it.It is not high literature,but I suspect that anybody going for this type of thing already knows that.What it does do is tell the story from the groundpounder's point of view.Its a usual war story,wartorn worlds light years away, between a couple of corporate factions.What it really seems to excel at is very entertaining operational and technical details.Its almost as if the author had read a copy of Tomorrow's Wars and wrote some sci fi around it.So,if youre new to this type of gaming(like me),and would like some great ideas for scenarios,I recommend this book.Its only $4 USD on the Amazon Kindle,so no hardship there.
