Book Description

The Posleen War November 25, 2008
YOU CAN CHOOSE YOUR FRIENDS . . .

 

Cally O'Neal is officially dead. In her over forty years of being an active secret agent she hasn't used her real name much less spoken to her sister. So when Michelle interrupts an important mission, by seemingly appearing out of thin air, it's an unexpected reunion.

 

. . . BUT YOU CAN'T CHOOSE YOUR RELATIVES.

 

Michelle O'Neal has lived the life of the perfect Indowy adept, rising slowly in the ranks, honing her skills, being a good little girl. But now she needs the help of her “bad” sis when the Darhel start to put the squeeze on the first Human mentat.

 

In a family where her father, the war hero, thinks everyone is dead, her grandfather is a smuggler when he's not distilling moonshine, her sister is a cold-blooded killer for hire and her brother-in-law is a mobster, Michelle may look like the odd-gal out.

 

But when it's death or dishonor, she's gonna prove that deep down inside, she's every bit an O'Neal.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just keep getting better, November 27, 2007
Have to admit when I picked up Cally's War I expected another Ringo shoot-em-up. Nothing wrong with that, I enjoy all his stuff. But I was pleasantly surprised to find a totally different perspective, a viewpoint from a troubled conflicted grown version of the little girl I'd come to know in the earlier Aldenata series. Frankly blew me away.
Now Julie Cochrane has done one better, picking up the story, adding in the sister that barely existed in the prior story line and making her a pivotal force to play against not only with the sisterly familial interactions but very subtle politics on the interstellar level.
Excellent read, high adventure, characters you can care about.
My only gripe is for pete's sake get Cally back to a slab and fix her double barrelled handicap. It's only right.

4.0 out of 5 stars where is mike and his unit for the last 30 years, December 28, 2007
this book was as usual very good,, The thing that has stuck in my mind,as I am sure in many others. What happened between the last posleen battles on Earth to the time of the cally story?? How did the earthmen uncovere, and nullify, for the most part the part the elfs were playing all along in trying to control the rest of the races.. Too many loose ends and assumptions are flying around and left unresolved to bridge ther gap between the main posleen situation and those covered in the cally story and sister time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Continuation of Storyline, December 2, 2007
Julie Cochrane and John Ringo have created another good book in the Posleen War novels. It continues the story of Cally, Papa O'neal and brings in her sister Michelle. Provides good combat, plenty of action plus humor.

If you are a fan of the previous novels in the Posleenverse, make sure to pick this one up.
