Burden of Proof – John G. Hemry

The second installment in the JAG is Space series is structured much like its predecessor, A Just Determination. Paul Sinclair is now a Lieutenant JG, still serving on the U.S.S. Michaelson. A deadly accident in forward engineering isn’t investigated as it should. An officer attempts to cover up the truth. Sinclair is in the middle. To mix things up, his girlfriend Jen’s father is a Navy Captain. Major trial in the second half.

This story is a bit weaker than A Just Determination, but still quite good. If you liked the first book, you will undoubtedly like this one. Hemry does well in advancing Paul and Jen’s stories and the changes in their characters.

Note: Hemry also writes under the pseudonym Jack Campbell.

The Stainless Steel Rat Series – Harry Harrison

SciFi humor. I quite enjoyed the first five books or so, but in the end the laughter starts wearing thin. I gave up after “The Stainless Steel Rat Goes to Hell”. Those I have read are:

  • The Stainless Steel Rat
  • The Stainless Steel Rat’s Revenge
  • The Stainless Steel Rat Saves the World
  • The Stainless Steel Rat Wants You
  • The Stainless Steel Rat for President
  • A Stainless Steel Rat is Born
  • The Stainless Steel Rat Gets Drafted
  • The Stainless Steel Rat Goes to Hell

 

Format change for my Book Reviews

Welcome to the new Rosboch book review site. I noticed that I was updating the old site less and less. New reviews weren’t coming up. Truth is, posting a review on the old site took a lot of work since I was basically hand carving the site for every new book. Besides, it looked terribly antiquated.

Old reviews will remain on the old site for now. I am slowly copying them over to this site, at the rate of 1-2 a day.
