| Description: |
Major Loren Jaffray is a soldier`s soldier, a hardened professional who made his reputation with the Capellan Confederation`s legendary Death Commandos. Now serving as an officer in the Northwind Highlanders, Loren longs to prove his loyalty to his new comrades. And he`s getting that chance—the Draconis Combine is hiring his regiment to take on a mission unlike any before it.
The ruthless Clan Smoke Jaguar emulate the savagery of their feline namesake with lethal accuracy. Nobody knows this better than the samurai of the Draconis Combine, who fought to the death to save their very homeworld. Now Loren`s crack Highlanders will be the instrument of the Combine`s vengeance, striking into the Deep Periphery to crush one of the Jaguars` supply centers on a distant world called Wayside V. But the young, confidant major is in for a very nasty surprise—and unless he makes a brilliant change in plans, Wayside V will be soaked with Scots blood... |

Quite a good novel, Gave an interesting insight to the smoke jaguars and their ruthlesness. Gave a fantastic description of zero-g fighting. The plot was gripping to the very end. |

Pretty fair, though dry in some places. Nice bit on 0-G combat. Kind of like reverse-bungee jumping.
You also see just how much of a pack of ruthless bastards the Jmoke Jags can be. Thank Gawd they dont last..... |
