I read Books 1-3 first, so had to get this prequel collection. Story 1, development thru combat of a young Marine who will play an important roll in the future, story 2 ...the same about a young Navy officer and the lessons he learns about command and it's responsibilities and the tough decisions that must be made, and can't be taken back. Story 3...Marines and Navy together in combat, an example of the loyalty of the Brotherhood of men/women in arms, especially when stabbed in the back by politicians from Earth. Vivid combat scenes, great character development. When you get angry at a development or at a character or or come up with "Oh crap!" when some you hope would succeed but falls, you know you were hooked.Yes, I'll gradually pick up the others. Too easy to get overstocked with the Kindle.
