4.0 out of 5 stars A Hit!, April 18, 2000

If you're a fan of the hit tv series JAG, you'll love this book. Tine combines all of the action, suspense, and playful banter of the series into a great story.

While the first in this series was more of a courtroom drama, this one is a thriller all the way. Luckily, it's under 200 pages, so you won't have to put it down!

The story becomes predictable at points, but is still well worth the time; if you enjoy JAG this is a "must read!"

5.0 out of 5 stars Once again, a great JAG novel!, May 31, 2000

This review is from: JAG 2: Clean Steel (Paperback)

I was just as pleased with the second JAG novel as I was with the first. It picks you up right from the start and dosen't put you down 'till it's over.

There is no court room action this time, the story is based aroud and investigation, but it has lots of action none the less.

I think this book was edited much more throughly than the last, although there are still one or two small mistakes that a deticated JAG fan would pick out :o) Though once again, Harm does not fly an F-18!

Oh well maby they'll get it right in the next book, and I hope there will be a next one!

This review is from: JAG 2: Clean Steel (Paperback)

Having read the first TV Tie-In for JAG I was excited to continue on to the second. I was hoping it would be just as exciting and fast paced as the first. Thankfully, I was not disappointed.

Again, I feel that Robert Tine really has a knack for capturing the feel of an episode of JAG. The characters were true to form and mirror images of the ones I've grown to love through the show. The dialogue was authentic -- funny when called for and serious when it had to be. Something I love about JAG is the tendency to jump from humor to drama and Mr. Tine captures that feel very well in this novel.

As per the first novel, the plot was enthralling and intricate and kept me guessing and completely involved right up until the very end. This story line would really make an exciting episode of JAG!

Again, I was well pleased with Mr. Tine's ability to capture the chemistry between Harm and Mac perfectly. Their banter was just as witty and captivating as that on the program.

An added bonus in this book is the increased inclusion of Bud Roberts -- a character I've grown fond of and who adds much to the story by way of levity.

Once again I was sad to note that a picture section had not been included in this book either -- I still say this would make a nice addition to these highly readable books!

All in all, _Clean Steel_ was a superb read -- on the same par with the first book in this series. I was quite impressed with this book and will read it again. Once more I was able to picture the actors who play these parts while I read the story which is a exceptional accomplishment on the part of Mr. Tine -- he captured their essence so well.

_Clean Steel_ was a first class read that I completely enjoyed. I certainly hope there are plans to continue with this line of TV Tie-Ins. I, for one, would definitely buy them!
