![]() What it is though is entertaining, in a Michael Bay action movie kinda way. Morgan's writing style in the Takeshi Kovac series, though I would have to say it's much less "brainy" than the Kovac series. ![]() It's a mixture of a Noir crime novel with some rather violent action segments. The world that Vaillencourt builds in the first book is entertaining. The world he now lives in is one of thieves and criminals, and with Lucia's father being kidnapped by another one of his creators he is now given the chance to not only pay back his saviour by helping his daughter, but also to exact some revenge along the way. The military overrode his free will and had an AI cause the carnage, something that causes him grief to this day, as he was along for the ride and didn't "come back" until he woke up on a pile of dead bodies. Because one of the things the military did was install an "override", when orders came that where a violation of laws or ethically questionable he and his team mate had no choice. In "Ordnance" we are being introduced to Tank by Lucia, the daughter of one of the scientists who more than 30 years ago created him and also ended up saving him. ![]() He is known as "Tank", standing at 7 Feet and almost 900 pounds. The main character is a former military cyborg named "Roland" who after being "discharchged" from military service finds himself in the seeder parts of Boston where he tires to atone for his perceived sins. ![]() ![]() Andrew Vaillencourt has created what I would call "Military Sci-Fi" series with "The Fixer". ![]()
