Warriors (Hell Divers #7)

Wow! This story kept me from putting it down with all the action taking place! It took several twists and turns – and, I didn\’t see much of what was happening coming at all… Whew! Nicholas Sansbury Smith created an epic ending to such a great series! I really HATE to see it end as X, Miles, Michael, Les, and the others are like old friends… and we were introduced to a new friend Jojo! Here, the story is wrapped up neatly in the end… though I am still wondering what will happen to our friends! This series has been quite thrilling from beginning to end; the action keeps on right until the end. I found this a very enjoyable series and book. It takes us on a different path of post apocalyptic stories – one where despite all the gloom, there is still hope. Too, the characters are memorable in that they are very real. They rise to the occasion when it is needed – sometimes, they even surprise themselves with their courage! This is a fitting end to this series! While I was given an ARC, I am freely expressing my opinion. I bought a copy for myself as well as for others who would enjoy this type of story to support the author. Wow! You need to read it! Well done, Nick!

King Xavier, known as \’X\’ by most, King of the Vanguard Islands, King of the Sky People and the Cazadores, was most worried about protecting the Iron Islands and his loyal subjects, also worried about the Skinwalkers and Defectors, about divisions among his people threatening to make his rule a short one. The Hell Divers continues to amaze and thrill me with the energy of the plot and the amazing three-dimensional, Technicolor sharp and brilliant characters we\’ve fallen in love with through six thrilling installments! Love them or hate them, you have to know what they\’re going to do next, how they\’re going to escape their current dire straits, how they\’re going to save the day – again! I can\’t say I couldn\’t put the book down until I finished because I had to grab a quick nap before I read to the end! This is a powerful book that I know you will love. All our favorite characters are there, at least at the beginning! LOL

This seventh book in the award-winning Hell Divers series is nothing short of amazing. I would love to see Hell Divers developed as either a movie or tv series. Multiple complex storylines. Edgy action scenes. Tug-at-the-heartstrings situations and incredible world building. All of this wrapped into a story that has you cheering/gasping/screaming with nearly every scene. What a wonderfully wild ride this has been. Well done Mr. Smith!

Nicholas Smith has hit another home run with Hell Divers VII, Warriors. A real page-turner, this exciting novel has mutant monsters and enemies in the form of thinking machines and the skin walkers plus palace intrigue and plot twists. A familiar character, former Commander, King Xavier X Rodriguez, a protagonist from previous Hell Divers books, plays the major role in this book. As an old guy who served 30 years in the Army, I understand the burden of command he faced daily. The characters are complex and fully developed. The author displays exceptional insight into how leaders handle crises as King Rodriguez has to weigh the welfare of the many against the lives of the few as he strives to keep the peace between the Cazadores (Spanish for hunters) and the sky people. As a Vietnam veteran, I appreciated how the author employs vivid imagery and realistic scenes of combat as the Hell Divers fight off enemies in a classic example of the struggle of good versus evil. The author includes several perceptive statements and quotes: – accept the past without regret and face the future without fear Sage advice for us all. – Love is kind. It does not envy Great verse from I Corinthians 13. I was impressed by the way the author concluded HD VII. It can either be the satisfying conclusion to an epic series or the prologue to additional adventures and challenges. I hope it is the latter.

Hell Divers VII…what can I say about this novel? Thrilling, full of action, well developed characters, and a plot that has many layers. I have read all of Mr. Smith\’s books and for me, this is his best yet. Familiar characters such as King Xavier, Magnolia, Les, Michael and a few more contribute to this powerful story. A couple of items that contributed to my love of this novel. The first is that the author manages to bring the reader to a point where you are sure you know what the outcome will be…Well, the reader will be wrong as he has a \’twisty-turny\’ in the plot for you to absorb. Also, the reader is familiar with the characters from the previous books and we are truly invested in them….hook, line and sinker. Their faults, their strengths and their weaknesses. We love them… This book is the frosting on the cake, indeed. If you don\’t shed a tear or two at the end, I will be surprised. Super ending and the story is wrapped up expertly. As we say in the US Navy….no gear adrift and no Irish pennants on your uniform to get a demerit. No demerits for Mr. Smith…not even a fraction of one. Most highly recommended and for multiple reasons. Extremely well done…
