Product Description

Product Description
Prince Roger MacClintock was an heir to the galaxy's Throne of Man - and a self-obsessed spoiled young brat...until he and the Royal Marines sent to protect him were stranded on Marduk with only their feet to get them half way around the entire planet. So far, they've traversed a continent, crossed a sea full of ship-eating monsters, taken over an enemy spaceport, and hijacked a starship. But they're not home-free yet, because home is no longer free. In Roger's absence, a palace coup by enemies of the MacClintock family has seized control of the Empire. His mother the Empress is a captive in the palace and even in her own body, drugged so that her will is not her own. Roger's brother, the heir to the throne, is dead. And Roger himself has been branded an outlaw and traitor. Roger and his faithful band of human marines and native allen warriors have beaten the barbarian planet Marduk. Now they must re-conquer an interstellar empire. But they aren't about to give up, and once again a lot of power-hungry people are going to learn a hard lesson: You do not, ever, mess with a MacClintock!

4.0 out of 5 stars A solid 4th installment of the Saga of Prince Roger, 26 April 2005
By A Customer
This isn't the best of the four books that comprises this series to date. That being said it is a solid addition.

Where the first three concentrate on survival in hostile terrain this moves Prince Roger and the Basik's Own into the murky waters of political intrigue that is terran poltics.

The latter is handled deftly and has the hallmarks of David Weber. Yet Ringo as ever the rising star of military SF shows his ability in the realistic battle scenes.

The fact that people we have come to care for die with regularity only enhances the believability in this almost unbelievable story.

Who dies this time?

Read it and see.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent 4th Book in the Roger McLintock saga, 12 Sep 2006
By Marshall Lord (Whitehaven, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: We Few (Mass Market Paperback)
"We few" follows on from the trilogy of books in which Prince Roger McLintock, spoilt younger son of the Empress of an interstellar empire, is stranded on the primitie planet Marduk.

The sequence of books so far in the series is:

March Upcountry
March to the Sea
March to the Stars
We Few.

Having fought their way from one end of a primitive planet to the other, captured a spaceport, and captured an enemy starship, Prince Roger and the 12 survivors of his bodyguard had acheived what they thought would be necessary to return home. Unfortunately they now find that there has been a coup on Old Earth, in which the sabotage of Roger's ship was only the first act.

Roger's mother the Empress Alexandra is being held prisoner by the evil Prince Jackson and by Roger's own father: his brother, sister, and all his nephews and nieces have been murdered. And in the belief that he was dead and can't answer back, the real criminals have made Roger the scapegoat for the murders, so that all his potential allies think he's the traitor.

But the people who are running the Empire have made two mistakes. First, Roger is very much alive: second, he's a McLintock and they've made him very, very angry ...

The "We few" of the title is a reference to the few survivors who fought all the way round Marduk and the bond between them.

Excellent collaboration between John Ringo and David Weber. The naval battle scenes and political manouvering could have come out of an Honor Harrington book, while the ground fighting scenes are very reminiscent of the "Posleen" series. In other words, the best of both writers.

The ending does appear to leave open the option of at least one more book in the series, so I will wait with interest to see if another one comes forward.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pocking Brilliant!, 18 Nov 2005
By JA Fairhurst "johnfair" (Edgeley, Stockport) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This is the final instalment (to date) of Weber and Ringo's Regiment of Bronze series.
Roger McClintock and his personal protection had finally made it across two continents and an ocean to the sole Imperial outpost on Marduk where they'd obtained transport off world.
All too few had survived the exceptionally violent wildlife and equally friendly natives, but some had and those natives became true believers in the cause of Roger's survival. The ones Roger and his people had left alive anyway...
Now all Roger and his all-too-few fellow travellers had to do was persuade those who only knew the playboy prince and didn't believe he could change as much as he had that he could be emperor. The proof would be unpleasant for all involved.
Roger's mother, the Empress was under the thumb of the real conspirators leaving only Roger's ability to win allies to free her from the horrors of her incarceration.
Jointly written by Weber and Ringo, the series as a whole and this in particular show a degree of grittiness rare in Weber's individual writing, an undoubted influence of Ringo's time in the military. This is an intense and page turning read.
