Politics and Intrigue, wrapped in a Periphery-coated shell

While on the surface the novel seems to be about Avanti's Angels, a (sometimes) down-on-it's-luck mercenary unit, the true focus of the story brings a number of major powers, both of the Inner Sphere and of the Periphery, into a head-on collision on a remote planet in the Periphery, leaving the Angels squarely in the middle. It takes more than PFM (Pure F...ing Magic) to get them out... and not necessarily in one piece, either...Double Blind is a book that should be read by any true BattleTech fan, every Game Master looking for a new hook, and especially all of you Word of Blake and Periphery nuts out there.

Great story and characters.

I picked this book up after reading Loren's other Battletech book - Binding Force (No. 32). Double-Blind is an enjoyable read. Good characters, a well-paced storyline and homage to the history of the Battletech universe help make this book a great read. This novel falls slightly short of Binding Force, but remains a worthy addition to the collection. Several aspects of this book are exceptional, and I'm looking forward to more novels from Mr. Coleman.
