Great Book!

I have really enjoyed reading the Honor series and was super excited when Word of Honor came out. It did not disappoint! Although the story does seem a little repetitive at times, it is well written and shows excellent character development. I love this series because I love reading about Blair/Cameron and Stark/Savvard's growing relationships. Who doesn't love a good romance? Now I have to wait for the next one!

Another Exciting Novel by Radclyffe

There are so many wonderful characters in WORD OF HONOR.

Radclyffe did a great job developing Cam and Blair's entourage.
I love the way these women all support each other. Even if one messes up, the others are there to pick up the slack.

I Like how Rad develops the mysterious Valerie and the OH SO FINE newcomer, Dana.
The interaction between the news reporter, Dana, and the alluring scientist, Emory, is done flawlessly.

There is always something happening in this novel - some new event to wonder about.
Yes, it IS fast paced! The adrenalin rushes as Rad describes the enemy and brings the reader into his 'camp'.

If reading about powerful women trying to find the enemy isn't entertaining enough, one is then dropped into Cam and Blair's Rocky Mountain wedding, where LOVE is the happening assignment.

If only I could talk about the ending! It must have had Radclyffe glowing when she thought of it. It's clever, inspiring, terrifying, powerful, heart stopping, take a breath now, kind of ending. One of the best yet.

Oops (or duh!) - Read last one first!

I obviously did the reading backwards - still.... While looking for something to read after plowing through I don't know how many books - I stumbled across this one. Needless to say, I have since ordered the remaining six in the series. I more than thoroughly enjoyed this reading -the characters, the plot, the dialogue and so on. Enough so that it has prompted me to write a review, which I never do or have done.

What impressed me most was the tenderness shared between the characters, those involved, and those not. I have read some reviews that say the relationships are a bit unrealistic... Reading is an escape, a fantasy, a learning tool, whatever. If I wanted reality all the time, I wouldn't be buried in a book!

I Love Dana and Amory and agree with the reviewer who thinks they should have their own series!! Something undeniably sweet about them.

I am working on my own "story" that I hope will grow up to be book someday. I hope I am fortunate enough, clever enough - to be graced with the presence of Radclyffes style and charm.

At any rate - if you want something to read that will capture your attention, imagination and a bit of your heart - read this...but start from book one! I do intend to reread the latest installment all over again once I read the first six - Indeed, it was that enjoyable.

Good but not as engrossing as other books in the series

I think Rad has mined the last gold from these characters. I'm glad she tied up most of the loose ends, but if there is another book, I think it will be one book too many. I found myself thinking that the protective arm of the Secret Service is seldom called to fire their guns in this country (much less every six months). The problem with writing fiction that parallels contemporary happenings is that it is difficult to do it without treading on reality and putting some of what we wish will/had happpened in the fiction. It is another good read, but I'm glad the series seems to be at an end. Yes, I know that there are other stories that could be told because she has so many characters that we care about, but for the nonce they should be allowed to live their lives in our imaginations and not on the printed page.
One question: How did Ellen Grant (first two books) morph into Ellen Marks in this book? If she took her husband's name or went back to her maiden name a nit-picker like me would like to know.
