Summary: To the Red, White, and Blue
Comment: This is the first book in a series of five. If all are as good as this, it will be great.
Bree (Banzai) Maguire is a fighter pilot in 2006. She is patroling the no-man's land between North and South Korea. She and her wingman, Cam (Scarlett) Tucker, are both shot down, captured, and placed in cryo-freeze.
Now 170 years later, she is awakened by a UCE (United Colonies of Earth) SEAL. Tyler Armstrong hunts for treasure when he is not busy serving his country.
Prince Kyber is the ruler of Asia. Bree was found by Ty but Kyber's men caught them before she was fully revived.
Who to trust? Nothing is as it was when she went to sleep. Both men want her, both hate each other, and neither knows how to bring peace to the world.
Bree wants to find Cam. That is her priority. She must choose. Following her instincts, she chooses Ty.
Ty and Bree escape Kyber with the help of the Shadow runners. Who they are, we don't know yet.
When they are attacked by a SEAL that Ty knows, they make a decision to fight for freedom and to find the shadow voice.
This is an exciting, futuristic, adventure. I loved this book. Susan Grant has yet to write a bad book. I look forward to the next one in the series Day of Fire, by Kathleen Nance. NO 3, The Shadow Runners, by Liz Maverick. No 4, The Power of Two, by Patti O'Shea. No 5, The Scarlett Empress, by Susan Grant.

Summary: Fantastic opener for new series
Comment: USAF pilot "Banzai" Maguire heads out over North Korean territory with her wingman Cam "Scarlet" Tucker on a UN sanctioned fly over mission. What should have been routine mission turns out to be a battle for survival when both of their F-16's are shot down. Captured by an over the edge scientist, Banzai and Cam are put into bio-stasis for what was supposed to be a short-term experiment
In 2176, Ty Armstrong, U.C.E. SEAL commander and treasure hunter finally finds what has been a life long fascination, the legendary Banzai Maguire, still in stasis and alive after 170 years. Before he can revive her completely he is overwhelmed by the forces of Kyber Han, tyrannical ruler of the Kingdom of Asia, leaving Banzai in his hands and Ty a prisoner.
Ms. Grant has done it again, mixing a military style with romance in such a way that will have her readers marking calendars in anticipation of the four stories to follow in what promises to be a fantastic series. THE LEGEND OF BANZAI MAGUIRE is fast paced, with twists and turns guaranteed to keep you turning page after page. A riveting story to draw you into the 2176 series to come.
I CAN'T WAIT!!!

Summary: Loved it
Comment: It was wonderful! I LOVED IT! It was well worth waiting for (even if I didn't like the waiting part too much)!
The action scenes are amazingly realistic. Coming from a hand-to-hand combat perspective, even the ground scenes are great. Very straight forward and easy to 'picture' - no bizarre moves that could only happen with a really good special effects team. I tend to get a little frustrated by scenes that have the character backflipping and kicking someone in the head while shooting a semi-automatic (or better yet, let's just use a fully automatic) at some target that's so close that their weapon barely clears the space between them...
And the aerial/flight scenes are thrilling to read! Very intense. I could almost feel the sweat on Banzai's face!
SO, what I am trying to say, in my very jumbled way is...the book was so refreshing to read. The author makes the story come to life for her readers and I, for one, appreciate the effort she makes.
