Rating:  Summary: Could have been better Review: This is the first 'series' of books that I have read by these authors, and throughout all 3 of the books so far of this series there is one major flaw and drawback. While this story is about Jews fighting to preserve their newly created state of Israel, there is constant mention and pointing towards Christianity while Judaism is left in the background. These people might die because they are Jews, but to live they have to embrace the new testament. Now, I have no idea if the authors are Jewish or not, but one cannot seriously think that when a Jew is suffering and maybe dying (as there is a scene of in this book) while remember how his father and brother died, he would welcome the 'messiah' that gave his life to 'save the world' etc etc ad nauseum. Apparently all he lived for and fought for, including the fact that his father told him to live and survive, has been so that he would be converted to Christianity and 'see the light' when he is so close to death, please. Aside from all the Christ and Christian babble and rare sightings of Jesus himself throughout the three books, some of the fighting scenes are very well done, as well as other details and particulars throughout the book. But, all that Christian talk (not that I have anything against any other religion) simply does not belong in this series of books, and after I'm done with them, I doubt I'll be reading anything else by these authors.
