Why read it?
1 author picked In Death Ground as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I like to read stories that involve strategy and tactics, and this book has plenty of both. The book is the first of two parts set in a story universe that was inspired by a space game called Starfire. David and Steve have let their imaginations run wild with their descriptions of space battles and character development.
When I finished this book, I couldn’t wait for the conclusion, The Shiva Option. Like many of David’s books, this one is a thick book. There’s a lot here to keep you entertained.
From Dietmar's list on military SF books that are impossible to put down.
