In the midst of unusual and/or challenging situations these characters are still just men and women dealing with whatever life is handing them and struggling to do the best they can some are heroic, and some are evil-kind of like what we run into everyday. I find myself empathizing with them and cheering them on whether they're dealing with end-of-the-world-monsters or bureaucrats. One of the best aspects of this series is that the characters are so very, very different from myself that there is very little for me to identify with and despite that, they're very real, down to earth people who could be (and probably are) my neighbors. Personally, I'm holding Larry Correia and Oliver Wyman responsible Correia weaves a fast-paced interesting tale that's surprisingly almost plausible and Oliver Wyman simply brings the men AND the women in these stories to life in a way that audiobook readers hope for with every download. And I'm kind of unhappy that I've just purchased this on the 2nd day of it's release and now have to wait for the next installment. I would've never thought it possible for me to love a series of books with lots of guns, violence and monsters.
