DESCRIPTION:
Reflection of former sci-fi action Michael I've long been a Perry can. The stories, the extrapolation of science at the everyday gear level, the weaponry and martial arts portrayals, and the gritty human frailties that will undoubtedly accompany us to the stars one day.This book, and this series, though, seems more like an episode of sleepwalking than seriously developing something intended to have staying power and taking its place among the panoramic universe created by Perry over the years. I had to repeatedly stop and start this latest novel in order to g. Disappointing I own well over a dozen of Perry's books, and this is the worst. Even Star Ranger was better. The pace is very slow, and barely accelerates. I think he put more imagination into the nomenclature of the various weapons than he did into the plot.**SPOILER**And the fairy tales ending was extremely disappointing, more in keeping with a juvenile or YA book. I know from his blog this was at three book deal, so I can understand coming to some kind of resolution. I do not think it had to be so Pollyannish. It just seemed as . Not bad at all The Tejano Conflict is an entertaining addition to the 'Cutter's Wars' series, but is only ever so slightly inferior to both the Ramal Extraction and the Vastalimi Gambit.

You gotta read this book.”—Mike Shepherd, author of Kris Longknife: Tenacious“A cutting-edge, militaristic sci-fi novelThere’s also plenty of action and adventure and blood and guts.”—Fresh Fiction. Praise for The Ramal Extraction “Pulse-racing action on the tip of the spear in a cutting-edge future
At the end of the twenty-fourth century, war is fought in a civilized manner: Each side hires mercenaries to engage in combat in specifically designated areas. The pay is good, the unit happy. To the victor go the spoils—whatever they may be… After a couple of assignments involving more intrigue and skulduggery than the Cutter Force Initiative ever wanted, the unit is looking forward to being part of a straight-up, short-term industrial war on Earth. Cutter agrees to a support role offered by an old Army comrade who’s now a general in a larger military force. All they have to do is basic ranger stuff: sneak and peek, shoot and scoot. But what starts out as a corporate fight to occupy a valuable piece of contested territory quickly goes sideways, and once again Cutter and crew find themselves in the middle of situations in which things aren’t as they seem, and the unit must determine the truth—or lose more than just a battle.
