This REALLY isn't the end ,is it?
By Rodger Raubach - February 15, 2001This book comes closer to being "vintage" W.E.B. Griffin than the two works that followed. As usual,there is a compelling plot line in mounting a mission to the Gobi desert in order to establish a weather station for forthcoming B-29 raids against the Japanese home islands. As usual "Killer" McCoy and Ernie Zimmerman are involved as "the doers". As usual,Fleming Pickering is the behind-the-scenes manipulator and planner. As usual, Franklin Roosevelt is Machivellian. As usual, Bill Donovan almost manages to screw up the works. As usual, McCoy manages to pull off the mission.All that said, I really did like the book. Aside from too much time being spent by Fleming Pickering doing his little political intrigues to offset Bill Donovan's little political intrigues, the book was a fairly satisfying read and manages to hold the reader's interest very well. I found that several of the characters introduced early in the series (Milla Banning) to have their... read more
Getting worse
By "irish28ma" - March 5, 2001When I started reading "The Corps" series I was a young 21 year old Marine myself. The characters were down to earth and I could relate to McCoy. It was good to see a young enlisted man get a shake and get promoted to be an officer. Now it seems that every kid out of boot camp that bumps in to Flem's circle gets gold bars pinned on his collar. This waters down the series and shows to me that Griffin does not want to deal with young enlisted men as characters. I expected to see Lt. McCoy leading a platoon of Marines on Tarawa or some other island. I know that that will not happen. When these characters embark on a mission, it seems that Griffin can't wait to get them back home into a First Class Hotel sipping "Famous Grouse" with their high class lady friends. What about the thousands of other Marines who were slugging it out with the Japanese and didn't see their homes for years? Characters like young Pick and Weston should be flying against Zeros and not fooling... read more
My enthusiasm is on the wane...
By A Central Illinoisian in Chicago - March 8, 2000As a longtime reader of the estimable Mr. Griffin, I'm really starting to see my enthusiasm fade for the Corps. I read the Brotherhood from Start to Finish, and was lucky enough to begin in 1986, when most of it was finished and the last new books were being written.The Corps premeired at about that time, when I was McCoy's age. Now I'm 14 year's older, and he's still in his early 20's - I won't begrudge him (!) that, but I'm mightily worried about this series. The Brotherhood carried, pretty intactly, the story of 4 main characters through 25 or so years in 8 books. There were many secondary characters, but the focus was on these 4.Now, how many characters does the Corps have? And how many were introduced or given new prominence in this book? This Weston guy acts no differently than Pick Pickering... Is he a necessary character? Chief McGuire? Sampson? Williamson? Janice whatsername? How many new characters do we need to keep this thing moving forward... read more
