Review: As good as the first

Finished the first of this series, which was a free download. Immediately purchased this, the second of the series. I'm always a bit wary as often it seems the second doesn't quite stand up to an outstanding first effort. Not the case here. This is going on my 'must buy as soon as published' list, which is not that extensive.Same excellent characterization with the main characters being further developed, supporting characters more detailed and new characters added just as vividly. Again, the author's deft touch with "camouflaged" tough very evident in a professor with a background.The folding in of characters from various war eras in this second book of the series is particularly well done, giving a rather bleak but very realistic look at the war ravages the soldiers involved in them.All I can say is that I hope the third book in this series is available soon.
