No. 11 - The Guns of Terra 10


by Don Pendleton

Started: April 13

Finished: April 18

Notes: The author is best known for his work in the 1970s in the Executioner series of men's action novels, of which I've read many. Pendleton did write some other stuff, however, and thought I'd give this sci-fi action novel a chance.

Mini review: Goofy, in only the best early 70s Pendleton kind of way. Executioner fans won't find much here, other than some philosophizing, that is familiar to them, but not a bad read. The overuse of futurist jargon is a bit jarring, and it takes a while to sort of figure out what everything means, and the way the society is set up.
