And as Sibi is drawn deeper into a web of secrets, she must find a way to outwit an enemy that threatens to decimate her family once and for all. But as the scope of Germany’s ambitions becomes clear, maintaining the facade of a Nazi-sympathizer becomes ever more difficult. If she or her sisters reveal that they saw planes bearing swastikas, the gestapo will silence them-by any means necessary.Īs war begins to rage across Europe, Sibi joins the underground resistance, secretly exchanging information with Griff. When Germany claims no involvement in the attack, insisting the Spanish Republic was responsible, Griff guides Sibi to lie to Nazi officials. Griff, an American military attaché, pulls Sibi from the wreckage, and it’s only the first time he saves her life in a span of hours. Seventeen-year-old Sibi and her family are caught up in the horror. On an April day in 1937, the sky opens and fire rains down upon the small Spanish town of Guernica. Inspired by Picasso’s great masterpiece, Guernica, New York Times bestselling author Karen Robards returns with a riveting story of intrigue, deception and bravery in the face of war… I stared at the bed, wishing I were on it. The small panic attacks had lessened over the past few weeks, but there was an undercurrent of strife, and I feared what would happen if things got out of control. Being held against my will caused spikes in my adrenaline, and the subsequent crashes left me drained. With no way to tell time, I wasn’t sure how long I’d been there. The rest of the room retained both the look and smell of the rest of the decaying structure. There was a lamp and a mattress with a blanket, but those were the only creature comforts. The small bedroom-like area was created from a previous office. Though it lacked privacy, the cage at least had a bed, and in there I wasn’t restrained with my arms above my head. The chains chafed my wrists, making me wish I were still in my cage. Building imaginative worlds and realistic characters that really resonate with his younger audience, he has been able to establish a style that really engages on a most fundamental and basic level.

Using bright visuals combined with witty and insightful storytelling, he manages to draw the young readers in, keeping them hooked and engaged throughout.

Noted American actor starring in a number of hit television shows and Hollywood blockbuster films, Greg Grunberg has now turned his hand to writing for children. He’s a lot more self-serving, for a start, even if he is loyal to his comrades. It’s still told in the first person, but Gas is a very different narrator to Planetside‘s Butler. Stylistically, however, The Misfit Soldier is a very different beast to its predecessors. Not in a critical sense, but in the way that warfare has worn the gloss away, and what’s left are hard-bitten soldiers treating war like the job it is. There’s no backslapping patriotism, but rather a more jaded view of the whole idea. It’s military SF, written by someone with an intimate and first-hand knowledge of how the military machine works. The Misfit Soldier is a standalone, but those who have read Mammay’s other works will feel at home here. But while I wait for news on that, and before I get to Mammay’s upcoming Generation Ship, there’s this book to deal with. The whole -side trilogy is a delight, and apparently has a fourth volume in the works. I’ve kept up with Mammay’s work ever since, even with the delays in UK publications. I’d even call Planetside the worst kept secret favourite of the online community. Happily, it seems the book blogging community at large enjoyed it just as much as I did. It was a great book, and one that I couldn’t find anyone to talk to about. Michael Mammay’s debut novel Planetside is one of the reasons I started this blog. So when ‘Gas’ Gastovsky learns of a friend’s disappearance, he pulls out all the stops to get him back. It’s an easy promise to make, a far harder one to keep.
