Buy this book.
I received my copy of MHI from Larry while flat on my back in a hospital bed awaiting surgery for a shattered spine.
MHI was true soul food for a shooter who needed some escape from reality. As horror it was better than Saberhagen. As techno thriller it was as good as Ringo at his best and much better than his worst. I read MHI in one sitting, and was grinning, even laughing through the pain & the morphine.
I seriously recommend this book to anyone who likes escapist stories in which good people overcome great odds & great evil without the asssistance of, or against the incompetence of big brother. It was just plain fun!
Larry, I'm pretty sure I recognised couple of THR/TFL moderators in MHI. As the series expands you will obviously need some cannon fodder/ moist crunchy monster snacks to fill out the teams. Have you considered offering red shirt parts in return for a charitable donation in the same manner as Ringo? That would be rather cool.
I repeat. Buy this book.
