MWSA Review

Wraith is a masterful telling of a story that is current and extraordinarily believable in its authenticity. Hannibal has revealed the secret s behind the curtains of weapon strategy and tactical employment in a terrifyingly real scenario. He brings his own experiences and skills into his saga that leaves no doubt that he knows of what he writes. Realistic and believable dialogue enhances the readability of this story and pulls the reader into the tale. His characters are well developed and the reader feels that he knows them and feels their emotions as the characters interact.  The development of the plot from weaving diverse individual stories that merge into the final climax and brings all the charters together in a thrilling ending leaves the reader satisfied and wanting more from this author. A thoroughly engrossing, action-packed tale of authentic characters fighting for their beliefs while demonstrating personal emotions that make the reader empathize with each one.  This is a story that can be enjoyed by all.
