13 GREEN DRAGONS

13 Green Dragons is a really great old-school action-thriller but offers up newer literary touches to the genre with much greater character perspectives and depth of feeling. A young man heading to war to do his duty, injured almost to the point of death and awarded the nation’s highest military honor but veering away from publicity. There can be more than a touch of cliché with titles like this but Lobeck always maintains a high standard of writing and stays away from tried and tested methods of gaining a reader’s trust and plows new ground in a soon to be a modern classic.
