As you might have read...this is truely a great book.
I bet everybody likes the end...I sort of expected it.
But M. Stackpole did a thorough job, I must say.. ~_^

Coupe is the 3rd book of the Warrior Trilogy and finishes everything up in the 3027 universe. All the ends are tied here as you finally get to see Morgan Hasek-Davion in action. One of the great things of these books is the minor characters that get good face time. The likes of Andy Redburn throughout the series gives the reader a feel for the men in the trenches while still able to give the overall political view from the Successor Lords. The end of the 4th Succession War is an excellent read and is very highly recommended.

it got here fast and was in mint condition what more can you ask for...it was cheap too

This book ties up the ends of the 4th succession war, Quintus Allard (Kai Allard Liao's father) triumphant return to Federated Suns and more. In my opinion, this series is better than the Kerensky series because the plots are better. There is no shortage of action with scenes from Morgan Kell vs Yorinaga Kurita (founder of Genyosha Regiments), Andrew Redburn (now a battalion commander in 1st Kathil Uhlans) during 4th succession war, the traitor Michael Hasek-Davion (Morgan Hasek's father). I was particularly moved by the sacrificial action of Patrick Kell in saving Melissa Steiner. This series is a must read for all Battletech funs. You will find this at least in par, if not better, than Grave Convenent (Book 2 of Twilight of the Clans).

For anyone who has not read this book. They should start with the first book of the series. The first two books lead up to what is a really explosive ending in this book.

Micheal Stackpole has the great ability to combine exciting action sequences along with strategic plot twists. Warrior:Coupe-The Finale of the Warrior Trilogy is a fine example of his incredible work and I can't wait for his next book. Anyone who is interested in Battletech should read the Warrior series to get hooked.

I have found Mike Stackpole to be one of the best of the writers in the BattleTech universe -- he manages bring the names we see in our BattleTech sourcebooks life and breath. Although I already had a pretty good idea of what was going on (I had already read the "Blood of Kerensky" trilogy), I was still glued to my seat. Excellent work, Mike! I can't wait for Prince of Havoc!

The warrior trilogy is the best btech series ever. The plot and battle r good and character cool.
