After the murder of his father, Lieutenant-Colonel Mike Blackwood, Ross Blackwood finds himself assigned to the Far East, taking on rebels and illegal-arms dealers in Hong Kong and Malaysia. Along the way he meets another Blackwood, his cousin Steve, who has made a life for himself in the Corp, as an explosives expert. The two Blackwoods uphold the honor of their family and their chosen profession while negotiating the fallout of Britain's post-colonial politics.

This review is from: Knife Edge (The Royal Marines Saga) (Paperback)
I have read over a score of books by this author and really like the writing. This book, however, is all over the place, is hard to follow, and most assuredly is not anywhere near as well written as the rest. If I had it to do again, I'd skip this title.

This review is from: Knife Edge (The Royal Marines Saga) (Kindle Edition)
This story was slow, poorly conected and left me with a feeling of disapointment. Not the authors best work, in fact it reads more like a collection of notes about a story that may be writen someday.
