Book #62 - Rear Echelon

Rear Echelon is a future sci-fi book. A mercenary force is supposed to be deployed to rescue a kidnapped scientist, but finds their escort killed and themselves landed on a jungle planet. They realize the scientist is not kidnapped, but a part of the scheme to take secrets to an enemy, and they must stop him.

It’s somewhat predictable, and slow moving at times, but it’s a good military sci-fi tale. Not as gripping as the Lost Fleet, or the Spinward Fringe series, but it was a good read, at a good price. A little short, but at $0.99, it’s worth it.
