Swartwood's LEGION is a prequel to his Man of Wax series, but it can definitely be read on its own. I've now read all three of the books. I like this one a lot. As always with his books, you get superb action -- and a little bit more. In this case, there's some fine commentary on fathers and sons. There are also believable bad guys, an unseen menace, and an icky-though-wrenching resolution that leaves you wondering what will happen next. One scene in particular still sticks with me months later. I won't ruin it for you. Let's just say that if you hate needles, you're really going to love this book.* I received a review copy.
