Summary

With the Japanese Imperium at war with the Soviet Union, and the United States watching cautiously on the sidelines, Second Lieutenant Joe Sullivan of the U.S. Marines is sent on a dangerous mission to Tokyo. The Russians have Summoned a demon of epic proportions to attack the city, and all that stands in its deadly path is an untested Japanese super-robot. Now, Joe is at the controls, his gravity-spiking Power at the ready. But that is one huge, mean Demon....

Good but too short

It is an interesting addition to the series, and it has an interesting, if not particularly mind-blowing storyline. I would have liked to have seen where the story could take this new direction in a longer book, but I guess I'll just have to accept it for what it is.

Too short

I definitely enjoyed this but it was perplexingly short . Why not flesh it out and make something more substantial of it?

Grimnoir Chronicles live on!

It was great to come back to Chronicles, even this was a short episode. Larry continues to write about stuff I would never consider interesting, and he does it in a brilliant way. If you never read MHI or Chronicles, do your self a favor and let Larry and Bronson Pinchot take you to a wonderful literary journey.

Pretty Good.

This was a pretty good story, but it could have been a lot longer. Still, it was a good listen.

Excellent short story for fans of Pacific Rim

Great story. Well read. A little jingoistic at times but it fits the pulpy setting. Makes me interested in the rest if the series, despite it's lack of mecha.

Ouch! This sucked...

America goes to help Japan against the Russians is the basic premise of the story. The American character is gung-ho, disrespecting all Japanese characters, who are made out to be untrustworthy. Communism is symbolically destroyed by the end of the story. The paralells with WW2 are screamingly obvious. This is a fantasy story for right-wing Americans and I hated every word of it.

Spoilt the series

The first 3 books in the series were fantastic. I couldn't put them down. Sadly this one spoilt the whole effect.
