Way too many common-sense ideas, but a good story, I suppose.

rangermatt reviewed Noble Beginnings by L.T. Ryan
Review of 'Noble Beginnings' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
In the vein of a Jack Ryan series, the plot had a few areas that became pretty obvious what would happen next, but then, there are areas that were completely surprising. I would love to have seen more development of Bear, Noble's partner from the Corps, as well as more backstory on some of the incidental characters, rather than as a way to increase the body count, but still a great read. This has the potential to become a great series.
rangermatt reviewed Art of intelligence by Henry A. Crumpton
Review of 'Art of intelligence' on 'Goodreads'
Very interesting read, had some details that you don't normally get from the stories that have been told, but still provides a fascinating look inside the upper management and their decision-making processes.
