but Walls had Better Not Get in His Way!

New York Times Best-Selling Author.
Former SEAL Michael Harmon, Team Name "Ghost", retired for service injuries, is not enjoying college life. But things are about to change, if not for the better.
When he sees a kidnapping a series of, at the time logical, decisions leave him shot to ribbons and battling a battalion of Syrian commandos with only the help of three naked co-eds who answer to the names "Bambi," "Thumper" and "Cotton Tail."
A fast-paced, highly-sexual, military-action thriller that ranges from a poison factory in the Mideast to the Florida Keys to Siberia, the novel will keep you guessing what twisted fate will bring next for the man once known as . . . Ghost. Keep an eye on him or . . . poof, he'll be gone.
"John Ringo's done it again! Ghost is a complete adrenaline rush, filled with nonstop, kick ass action and hair-raising suspense."
—Richard Marcinko, New York Times best-selling author of Rogue Warrior: Vengeance.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
John Ringo had visited 23 countries and attended 14 schools by the time he graduated high school. This left him with a wonderful appreciation of the oneness of humanity and a permanent aversion to foreign food. He chose to study marine biology and really liked it. Unfortunately the pay was for beans. So he turned to quality control database management, where the pay was much better. His highest hopes were to someday upgrade to SQL Server, at which point, he thought, his life would be complete. But then Fate took a hand: John has become a professional science fiction writer, and is in the early stages of becoming fabulously wealthy, which his publisher has assured him is the common lot of science fiction writers who write for Baen Books. In addition to his own enthusiastically received and New York Times best-selling military SF series—A Hymn Before Battle, Gust Front, When the Devil Dances, and Hell's Faire—he is collaborating with fellow New York Times best-selling author David Weber on a new SF adventure series: March Upcountry, March to the Sea, March to the Stars, and We Few, with more to come.
With his bachelor years spent in the airborne, cave diving, rock-climbing, rappelling, hunting, spear-fishing, and sailing, the author is now happy to let other people risk their necks. He prefers to write science fiction (both alone and in collaboration with David Weber) raise Arabian horses, dandle his kids and watch the grass grow. Someday he may even cut it. But not today. Maybe tomorrow. Maybe he'll just let the horses eat it.

Product ReviewNot really Sci-Fi but lots of fun. I like all of Ringo's books. The main character is a cross between Rambo and Larry Flint. Lots of violence and sex and you cheer for the good guy.

Product ReviewThis is barely literature. It is porn with a little action thrown in. A complete waste of my time and effort. I want it gone from "My Books"

Product ReviewThe character in this book is a bit dark and dangerous but as you read more and more about him you really start to care a lot about him. The book is a great read and I would reccomend this book to anyone who likes action, adventure, and a likeable character.

Product Review:) I agree, this isn't really sci-fi but... what the heck, it's totally awesome and exciting.
High paced military ops are NOT sweet, cute, or PC - and it's refreshing to read a story that doesn't try hiding the darker side of things.
And...it's perfect for any military-gear-head. (My boyfriend's getting my copy... *after* I'm done with it.)

Product ReviewI agree that this series is not for everyone; I, however, found it to be fun and it appealed to my darker side. Many of Ringo's characters have politics quite far from my own but his writing is entertaining enough that I always look for his stuff on the shelf.

Product ReviewOne the book is not SF. Two, it is a poorly reasoned support for Bush and the Iraq War. The second book is 90% and 10% story. I have read many Baen Books and ran out of authors I knew, but I will never buy another Ringo book.
