The Virgin Soldiers,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Virgin Soldiers (Virgin Soldiers Trilogy 1) (Mass Market Paperback)
I thought the book was excellent. Unfortunately, I had read the third book in the trilogy (Stand Up Virgin Soldiers) before this one - the first one. This left me somewhat confused as to the sequence of events, but still pleased with Thomas's description of events.
