A Ranger is Forged.

The next chapter in the war against Sût the Undying and the Nether Sorcerer unfolds against the backdrop of what it takes to become a U.S. Army Ranger.

The Rangers' next objective takes them on an odyssey of desperate survival and relentless combat through the Desert of Sleep, a savage and strange land... and a gateway to hell. Here the forces of Darkness fester, here the elements of the Rangers must go on the ultimate patrol, and here is where...

...the End War begins.

Exciting

Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2022

Verified Purchase

Exciting but the authors again use excessive dialog with the character Talker back from the semi cliffhanger from the last book. Talker and Joe have many adventures explained by Talker with his usual whining and complaining about being addicted to coffee. However the last fifteen minutes takes the book from an average of slightly better than average to making it extraordinary !! HOwever if you have the time to muddle through the minutia you'll want to read this instalment of The Forgotten Ruin series.

I've been a round awhile, read thousands of books . Descriptive writing is usually saved for the cultured tomes of top ten big priced books such as in the new York Times listing. This little beauty just blew up the usual fare we receive in military science fiction. To the nth degree. The writing literally gave me a better sight than watching a show on television. I read it and it's one of those special books that I will pick up to read again and again. Experience it!!!!!

Jason Anspach and Nick Cole have done it again! "The Book of Joe" is an adventure that no man would ever want to repeat! Talker grows as a Ranger even more in this 5th book of the Forgotten Ruin series and the excitement and action never stops! You have to physically shut the book down (computer/tablet style) just to catch your breath! I recommend this series to any fantasy/military fiction readers out there!

If you have discovered the Forgotten Ruin series, this book makes you wish for book 6- Today, as in now. It is a high watermark in a series that has already thrilled fans. If you have not read any of the series and just happen to start with this book, well, you are going to love it, buuuut then go back and read the first four. Tolkien meets the Rangers, with enough Lovecraft and Graphic Novel thrown in, Just to make you wonder, "what next?" Thanks Jason and Nick

Totally digging this series. But this book had me reading cover-to-cover to see what was up with Talker. And the Rangers. But mostly Talker & Joe. At the least, we get a better read on Joe. At most..... Sorry, no spoilers. But it's good.

And I enjoyed every minute.

This series is interesting for how it blends Tolkien fantasy and modern military elements together. To the author's credit, it makes sense. And the storytelling is excellent. Good action and an interesting storyline. Looking forward to the next book!

The Book of Joe is about two people, SGT Joe and SP “Talker”, and their relationship defines Talker’s future. The call backs to other fiction are memorable, and the fighting and humor are wicked and effective. I loved watching Talker “become”, because he can.

Really enjoyed this entry in the series, just like I knew I would. I also liked the “friends” the main characters ran into, particularly their captain. I did wish to read the often said motto of the authors’ other major series, but enjoyed it nonetheless.

Good to go.

I started this series whilst waiting no for a plane and have since spent the rest of the last year waiting for the next installments to be published on.

These are good books that have been well written.
I can't add much more. If you have read the previous books you know what you are looking at. If you are new to these then get over to book one and start in.
I just want to know what price had to be paid for lifting the curse.

If only our hero didn't spend so much time rambling incoherently about rubbish and then repeating it all over another three times, he would have earned five stars.

What a rush, I love this series. Talker is a fantastic character and the world you have created 10,000 years in the future is brilliant. Cannot wait for the next one.
