## Description

desertcart.com: Ice and Monsters: The Lost, Book 1 (Audible Audio Edition): Peter Nealen, Mark Boyett, WarGate Books: Books

Review: I'm so impressed! - The Recon Marines are in the middle of a North Sea exercise off the coast of Norway. Then fog, thicker than normal with an eerie feel, moves in. That's when the Recon Marines are suddenly, inexplicably, in another place. It's not Norway. But they have no idea until they're attacked by, "merpeople" that Colen realizes that they're not where they were only moments ago. And the craziness starts. The Captain, a boot, refuses to believe they're not in Norway. His decisions, made according to His Officer Training, were based on their old reality. But Gunny Taylor is the real commanding officer based on tours fought during a lifetime of being Recon Marines. Gunny has common sense & tries to get the Captain on board but to no avail. After the first battle with the sea people took Marine's lives, they were ill-prepared for what awaited them. And what the Captain decides after the second battle changes the fate of all the Recon Marines. The story takes off from there & moves non-stop. I'm hooked now, and on to the next book in the series. I'm trying not to spoil anyone's read, but I am sure that any reader of warfare books knows that they're excellent reads. If you've not read a warfare series, why not? You're missing all the great books! Thank you Peter Nealen. I'm so happy you put this story down on "paper" for us to share. It's a fun, action-filled, military story that bares the hearts and minds of this group of Recon Marines. And well done too!
Review: Literal Page Turner - I love military fiction, but this is one better. Like Taylor Anderson's cross-time shipwreck "Destroyermen" series, "Ice and Monsters" charges into the new "wargate" genre with guns blazing right out of the drop, and hardly lets up until the last page. I read it in one day. If you like action and high fantasy peopled with heroes and villains, this will entertain. I'm not a vet, but the realistic skirmishes and weapons handling are perfectly accessible to civilians interested in military and military history. No punches pulled. Realistic portrayal of people under great stress. I only removed one star because I feel like the first two novels could have been one fat one...but maybe someday we'll get a paper omnibus edition, which I will put on my shelf. In the meanwhile, I'm happy to throw money at each Kindle edition singly. Hey, I can read my Kindle in the dark without NVGs, so there's that.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nonstop action, USMC Recon Marines vs a lot of really strange and nasty monsters
*by C***T on May 28, 2023*

Here's a recent entry in the new "WarGate" subgenre, featuring a modern military unit somehow transported into a world of fantasy/legend to face the monsters and other inhabitants of the place. (I'm just as happy that author Peter Nealen omitted the supposed third WarGate element of perpetual resupply, although since that was mentioned in the Foreword I kept waiting for it to appear.) The plot was a page-turner with almost continual combat from beginning to end, with frequent surprises and hardly any repetition of action. I'm assuming the author drew on his own combat experiences and those related to him by other real Marines for the realistic feel to his descriptions of combat and fieldcraft - well, except for the monsters, which are well-imagined and not cookie-cutter copies from any game, fiction, or myth that I'm familiar with. (I found it interesting that of the two "top" reviews currently showing, one seems to be about a completely different book/series, and the other complains about the WarGate "perpetual taco machine" resupply gimmick, which as I noted Peter Nealen did not even feature in this book! I suggest you ignore those.)
