This book had SOOOOO many possible endings and yet the band played on. I enjoyed the story but yeah it was long winded. And after 9 books you'd THINK that our favorite genetically enhanced soldiers would at least have dealt a serious blow to the Dr. Peter Whitney program, but alas, the doctor is still pulling the strings. I was impressed with the number of f-bombs dropped in this book, THAT is how soldiers talk dammit ;) 
 Can someone tell me (view spoiler)[ When in the blue hell did Gator's brother Wyatt become a Ghost Walker? (hide spoiler)] 
 Story - 2.5 
 narrator 3 
 It threw me through a loop when some of the character voices changed from the last book, but other than that no major narration issues.
