About this audiobook
The attack on Pearl Harbor swept America into the raging heart of the war. The stormy South Pacific presented a daring new challenge, and the men of the Corps were ready to fight. An elite fraternity united by a glorious tradition of courage and honor, the Marine Raiders were bound to a triumphant destiny.…
"For some of us, reading The Corps series is like eating popcorn at the movies: you can never eat just one kernel, and you can never get enough. Griffin captures the smell of the smoke of battle as vividly as if one were on the beach at Guadalcanal." -The Philadelphia Inquirer
"This man has really done his homework.… I confess to impatiently awaiting the appearance of succeeding books in the series." -The Washington Post

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5The title looked interesting, and the teaser on the back sounded right up my street. However, far from being a war action story, this was more like a soap opera moving through a very interesting stage in the Second World War. Lots of name dropping, but lacking in action. If the period interests you historically, you'll no doubt find the book fascinating, but I would have enjoyed it more in the first dozen or so pages set the scene, then the rest of the book described their exploits in some detail.
