It's written in Wolfe's smoothest style: so \nfar, I haven't had to re-scan any paragraphs unless I enjoyed them.\n\nIf you liked the down-to-earth, realistic portrayal of the Athenians \nand other Hellenes in the first two _Soldier_ books, you'll probably \nlike the Phoenicians and Egyptians in this one.\n\nHappy reading!\n\n   -- Dan Rabin"
