| Description: |
Bushido: Life, Death, Honor, Fealty.
Bushido is the code that governs all these concepts. As a MechWarrior of the Draconis Combine, Minobu Tetsuhara is bound by Bushido, a code that demands loyal service to the devious Warlord Grieg Samsonov.
When Minobu came upon a strange blue and gold Archer, the field littered with its vanguished opponents, and its weapons now empty, Bushido dictated that he not destroy and honorable but helpless warrior.
For that he became one of the Dispossessed, stripped of his BattleMech, and without honor.
Minobu was then assigned as liaison to one of the Combine`s most elite mercenary units, who treated him with the respect due a fellow warrior, and gave him use of a BattleMech once more. The skill and power of the mercenaries is unparalleled, and when they refuse to renew their contract, Minobu is instructed to use all means to destroy them.
Now Bushido dictates that Minobu oppose his honorable foe in the blue and gold Archer, a man with whom he has served and who deserves far better than betrayal... Jaime Wolf and Wolf`s Dragoons |

Man, I wish I could plop this one down on the desk of Cameron or Lucas, or some other director, and tell em 'Stay as close as you can to the book.' I think Ive read this book about 6 or 8 times. And if you read closely, you can see the first hints that the Wolf's Dragoons are not what they appear to be.
Get this book, read it, and enjoy. |

This book is easily one of the best in the Battletech novel line. A must read, it touches gracefully on all the aspects I consider important; the combat, the strategy and the politics.
Both sides are depicted as intelligent, with decently supported motivations, and while it's still pretty clear who's the good guy and who's bad, you don't tire of the battle sequences because you're not entirely sure whether the good guys will win.
It's also kind of cool to look back with some hindsight at the first hints of the Clans.
I'd recommend it to anyone considering a first novel for Battletech. |
