(More customer reviews)I ran across the first of this series,X-BATTALION, and bought it because of the title. After reading it I found that I liked it, so I went on to the second one, OPERATION SOUTHWRN CROSS, and went directly to the FINAL one, ANARCHY'S REIGN. I will get back to that word FINAL in a moment.
These book are action filled like many other techno war books. However what separates this series is the character developement. Autry,Mungo,and McCune are fully define
men, men with definite character flaws. These flaws plus the idea of bucking the system are the things that make this series interesting. ANARCHY'S REIGN takes place in L.A. It is fun that the action takes place on American soil. The only hope to save L.A. are the SKY HUNTERs, but they are disbanded it because they are too good and the other services hate them. They are a loose cannon that can't be trusted. Needless
to
say like in the other two novels they win because they are un predictable.
Now that word FINAL!!! After reading this book, I screamed and threw the book across the room. For you see the author ends this series with this book. All those great characters will not return. The funny part of all this is that I went to the author's web page and wrote him a letter telling him how I felt. He answered my email!! Yes hesaid this was the end, but that I ahould try out his other works by his other name Jack Moloney of the WINGMAN series, STARHAWKE series, and the CHOPPER OPS series. I have read these and they are almost good enough to make me forgive him for killing this series. ALMOST but no!

Sky Hunters: Anarchy's ReignBobby Autry has always been a maverick. One of the best pilots in America's elite helicopter unit, nobody expected Autry to succeed when he was ordered to create a unit that could fly better than the Nightstalkers, shoot better than the SEALs, and think smarter than the CIA, but he delivered. He never cared about stepping on toes, only on getting results. But now Autry faces his biggest test. In the past, his strength as a soldier was in being able to operate independently, autonomously, without oversight. But now, he might have to take it one step further––he might actually have to break the law to get the job done. Autry has discovered a new threat to America, and it's coming from the inside. After intercepting a cache of weapons, he discovers that their destination is to be within one of America's biggest cities. A group of anarchists, hoping to fan of the flames of a politically–divided country, intends to transform the World Economic Summit into a war zone. With the time ticking down and government beuracracy slowing down the required response, Autry knows that the only way to defend his country is to break the law, arm his renegades, and pre–empt an insurrection on his own soil. If he isn't killed, he's almost certainly be court martialed, but caring about the rules was never Autry's style...
