1.0 out of 5 stars What's the story 12 Feb 2013
By Nighthaunter
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
This story is designed as a prequel to the war for profit novels, but after reading it I wouldn't touch the books at all . While it deals with a good concept - mercenaries who fight wars instead of nation states- the story unfortunately has no substance, poor spelling and grammar and in no way leaves me wanting more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Setting the scene 5 Oct 2012
By Andrew - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Gideon Fischer's Armor Academy Space Cadet (War for Profit)is an interesting read. The imagery of the work are on point; they really put the reader in the thick of it all. This selection is a preface to a series. And while I have, so far, only read this part of it, it is compelling. Honestly, if someone were to summarize this for me, I would say, "not interested." But, after having read it, I say that it is worth the read. Fischer's style pulls you into his universe. The words on the page make that place almost tangible. The narration begins with a 3rd omniscient and then transitions to a 3rd so close that it almost reads as a first person perspective. The distance is the bait, the closeness is the hook--Fischer is fishing for the reader's attention, and he reels you in.

So far, it evokes comparisons to works like Ender's Game (Ender, Book 1)and Starship Troopers. However, it has a voice and style all its own that allows the work to stand shoulder to shoulder with the previously mentioned titles rather than being a cheap imitation of. I can't wait to read the rest of the series.

4.0 out of 5 stars Gets the job done 27 Sep 2012
By John Patin - Published on Amazon.com

Unlike the boob who wrote the one star review, I DID read this novelette and can attest that it does what it was designed to do. It is a straightforward little story that demonstrates that the author is competent at his craft. It reminds me of the Dorsai stories by Gordon Dickson and gets the reader interested enough in the main character to look into the War for Profit series that it introduces. Once I have waded through my current TBR list, I WILL be checking this series out to see how it measures up. Don't let the cover put you off as it did me at first. This is worth a look, especially if you are into MIL-SF.

The book was thoroughly enjoyable. Jed Fisher in your face writing style is a joy to read. This book provides an enjoyable back story for Jed's trilogy "War for Profit".
