A mix of feats of physical prowess and militaristic strategy, all wrapped up in a nice, gung-ho burrito of Can Do spirit. . . . The details of the training to be a pararescue jumper, and the vivid descriptions of the various terrains and forces of nature that have to be fought against are going to have children whiteknuckling the covers of these short, fast moving stories...and asking for another one as soon as they are finished. Readers of Sherman's Bloodlines and Bowen's Shadow Squadron series will adore these books.-- Ms. Yingling Reads Author Spradlin adroitly mixes accounts of fearless engagement, physical prowess, and military tactics in a fast-moving book that can get the right reader hooked. . . .For those readers who eat this stuff up, it will be camouflage-coated candy. . . .Easy-to-read action-based stories for military aficionados and adrenaline junkies only.-- Kirkus Reviews If your kids like military and action stories, I recommend this action-packed book with stories about the pararescuemen and the U.S. Air Force. I enjoyed it and that's saying something since I'm not typically interested in military stories.-- Imagination Soup
