	John Ringo
		John Ringo (whose hard-hitting novels from Baen Books have been all the rage among fans of military SF) spoke at the June 2002 meeting of the Atlanta Science Fiction Society.
		One of the hallmarks of Ringo's fiction is his depiction of the chaos of warfare and the fact that "in the military, everything goes wrong all the time." His pet peeve with, for example, David Weber's Honor Harrington novels is that Weber's military is a little too perfect.
		Ringo readily admits: "David tells me what to write and I write it." Obviously, this is an over-simplified and perhaps too-humble account of their relationship.

		Ringo respects the fact that actual vets like himself will be reading his story, and he takes pains to ensure it passes muster.
		Ringo gets a lot of mileage out of the absurd politics, both from within and without the service, that stand in the way of letting a soldier get his job done.
		I'm sure for the most part Ringo's intent was to turn in some balls to the wall escapism, and he meets that objective.

	Barnes & Noble.com - Books: Ghost, by John Ringo, Hardcover, BOOK & CD (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		John Ringo, world-renowned as a master of military science fiction (Cally's War, Hell's Faire, et al.), tries his hand at the technothriller with a sexually charged novel about a former Navy SEAL nicknamed Ghost with a penchant for exploring his darker side.
		Fans of Ringo's military SF epics (Into the Looking Glass) may at first think Mike Harmon, the hero of this unusual novel, is cut from the same cloth as Mike O'Neal from the Posleen War series (Watch on the Rhine, etc.).
		I had been a fan of Ringo's for awhile now, but Ghost has finished that for me. In the world we have today, there are too many abductions and rape going on to have someone try to glorify a hero with it.

	The SF Site Featured Review: Hell's Faire (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		As a military SF author, Ringo does a great job of describing combat, though the escalation of the intensity of fighting over the books tends to move it beyond a human scale.
		Personally, I find this to be more of a feature than a bug, enjoying his discussions of how one might use "buckyballs" to trap anti-matter particles and the development of high energy weapons.
		Like the characters in his story, John Ringo could use some time away from the fighting, so he says he'll be writing some other kinds of stories for a bit, ones where good and bad are shown in finer shades of gray.

	Bookreporter.com - GHOST: Book I of Kildar by John Ringo
		Doing the former was much easier than the latter; Ringo's biographical information is deliberately vague, and my guess is that the name he writes under is a pseudonym, a tribute to the iconoclastic outlaw of the western frontier.
		Ringo, whoever he may be, has written a number of military and science fiction thrillers, and GHOST is the beginning of another new series.
		If you are troubled by truth, male sexual fantasies, violence, and all of the things that make adventure literature great, you may not find Ringo or his book to your liking.
