The second in William H. Keith Jr's 'The Gray Death Legion' trilogy, set in the BattleTech universe and following on from 'Decision at Thunder Rift'.

I do have to wonder, though, why this one is so titled when the vast bulk of the novel has little to no connection at all to the 'Mercenary's Star' of the title, other than that is where the Gray Death legion are contacted for their latest job!

Anyway, those who are into the whole BattleTech universe will get more out of this than those who are not - personally, I'm a little m'eh on the whole setting.

The second entry in Angus Donald's Fire Born series (after The Last Berserker: An action-packed Viking adventure) and, for some reason, I'm just not feeling it.

Unlike his eminently more enjoyable (IMO) Robin Hood stories, or even the Holcroft Blood trilogy.

I'm not sure why that is: set during the dark ages in and around the time of Charlemagne (a major recurring character), and featuring a reluctant Viking berserker you would think that this ticks all the boxes, as it were.

And yet, for some reason, it just didn't click for me.

Your mileage, of course, may vary!
