Format:Mass Market Paperback
There will be some that criticise this for being too much of a scene setting book with too little action. In a way they could be right. However the book also positions itself well to allow a continuation of the series (and we know book 5 has already been written).
If you are a fan of the Destroyermen series you will not be disappointed. The book is well written and better proportioned in chapter length etc. The new situations and characters are bedding in nicely and the scope for future books is still significant. If you are new to the series though make sure you start with book one "into the storm".
I hope the author does not prolong the series too long and gives it a credible ending rather than trying to milk the series for all its worth.

Format:Hardcover
This is the fourth book in the series and it shows: The writing flows and the caracters are more beliveable. I would recomend that you read the other books in the series first. The OT is rather intresting and the author knows the period and his belowed four stackers. The maps are sufficent, as always there is room for improvment in that department. My one fear is that the series will turn in to the something like "the lost regiment" series by W.R. Forstchen . after some 10 books it left you in the lurch. Always more savages to fight but it never finished.
But for the Destroyermen I hope the series will finisin a logical way. Anyway, I have already preorderd the next book in the series.

The first three books in the Destroyerman series where read with the "help" of my new Kindle in May. Just reading a few Chapters of the first book made mee buy the two next books in the series. Then I learned of "Distant Thunders", and since I am not able to buy this for my Kindle (why is it not released for Europe?), I decided I could not wait so I bought the hardcover. I was not disappointed, and I am now eagerly waiting for the next book.
