Review of 'Shadow Ops' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
I have read a fair bit of military science fiction books, but this was my first military fantasy book. In short, I thought it was awesome!
The book is about Oscar Britton, a soldier. He wakes up one day with magical powers. As his luck would have it, his powers are of a prohibited school. The book tells the story of how Oscar comes to terms with his new found powers and how the government has chosen to deal with and regulate magic users. Oscar has several difficult choices to make. Does he trust the military he's used to? Does he follow orders blindly?
I've just bought the next two books in this trilogy and they're already on my Kindle.
Did I mention there are goblins. Lots of goblins.
