4.0 out of 5 stars A mysterious conflict may ignite an interstellar war., March 17, 1999
This review is from: ON THE VERGE (Star Drive (Novels)) (Mass Market Paperback)
A conflict on a backwater planet may send two empires to war, and the concord marines are the only ones who might be able to stop it. That is the background on this novel. There are some fleeting mentions of unknown invading aliens and the manuevering of larger forces but the main story concentrates on the planet and the interactions between the character. Roland Green does a good job of showing us the mind set of the three groups involved (The two colonial groups and the marines), without showing bias. His grasp of military mindset and tactics are realistic without being boring and the action is fast pace. His characters seem real with believable motives and reactions.

For an author I never heard of before this I went out and bought two of his other books the day after I finished this one. A must read
