John Perry did two things on his 75th birthday. First he visited his wife's grave. Then he joined the army. The good news is that humanity finally made it into interstellar space. The bad news is that planets fit to live on are scarce—and alien races willing to fight us for them are common. So: we fight. To defend Earth, and to stake our own claim to planetary real estate. Far from Earth, the war has been going on for decades: brutal, bloody, unyielding. Earth itself is a backwater.

Unique Twist on the Galactic War for Supremecy
Revisado: 04-11-25
Story moves quickly and is a great blend of humor, action, and story. My main (and only) complaint is the writing which in turn hurts the audible. The author uses “he/she said” after almost every comment. When listening it gets a bit tedious. Some found it helpful because the narrator doesn’t distinguish characters and genders well. I didn’t find that to be a problem, but I did not enjoy the “hello he said, hi she said, how are you? He said, well, she said.” Author never seems to change the descriptor or use another synonym, just “pronoun said” over and over. You can tell it annoyed me, but it didn’t take away from the substance of the book.

From Darkness to Dynasty tells the unlikely history of the New England Patriots as it has never been told before. From their humble beginnings as a team bought with rainy-day money by a man who had no idea what he was doing, to the fateful season that saw them win their first Super Bowl, Jerry Thornton shares the wild, humiliating, unbelievable, and wonderful stories that comprised the first 40 years of what would ultimately become the most dominant franchise in NFL history.

Must Read for Pats Fans
Revisado: 04-20-20
As a millennial, the only Patriots organization I’ve known is a winning one. Tom Brady, Bill Belichick, and winning football is one of the few constants in an otherwise rapidly changing world. From Darkness to Dynasty is a fabulous, thorough, and humorous review of the first forty years of Patriots’ history and all the turmoil and losses from those years. This book is a must read (or listen) for any Pats fan, especially as the Tom Brady Era comes to an end.
