Gun Runner by Larry Correia and John Brown, Fiction Review#3 by StabtheDragon#125

2023-08-18 This 596pp book was published by Baen in 2021 and is an interesting and fun read in the Space Opera/Military Sci Fi category. Picture a futuristic space ship that is a merchant ship/smuggler that steals weapons and tech from the evil powers that be and sells to struggling freedom loving folks. But this time, the Captain and crew may have made a mistake! Swindle is a world that fulfills all your nightmares; everything there will kill you, stomp you, poison you, and eat you. The authors weave a fairly complex plot with lots of sub-plots, a cast of good guys and not-so-good-guys with plenty of ethical questions and choices that must be made. This is good clean fun with enough thought to make it challenging. Please, please let there be sequels!
