Lt. Col. Grossman's
comments regarding the success
of this book. Grossman,
D., & Frankowski, L., The Two-Space War:
Volume I of the Westerness Saga, Baen Books, 2004. All
of the information that Col. Grossman writes about
and teaches in his
military and law enforcement training
sessions has been included in his military science
fiction books. OODA Loop, front sight theory, auditory
exclusion, PTSD, critical incident debriefings and
much more, are now wrapped into an exciting book. This
may be the first time any fiction book has ever talked
about what combat is REALLY like! Summary
The
paperback edition came out in January
2006 and is now available for purchase
at Amazon and in book stores. You can
also purchase an e-copy at BAEN.com for $5.00.

Guns
of Two-Space, the sequel to Two-Space
War, is now available. To
purchase a DRM free download, see Webscription.net. For
a printed copy, safe from the Elder
God's Gift, see lulu.com. It
is a rip-roaring adventure, following
the continued exploits of the Captain
Melville, the good Ship Fang, and
their crew.
Thanks! Dave |
