Once the book has undergone another round of editing to fix these mistakes, it will most-deservedly be a 5/5 read. Mostly just missing or misplaced punctuation, there are, however, too many mistakes for me to give the book a perfect review. My only issue with the book is the grammatical mistakes. Aaron's life revolves around the love of his Vietnamese girlfriend, the danger of combat and his passion for music. After serving one tour of duty in Vietnam as a cavalryman, Aaron returns for a second tour as a combat medic. It's the summer of 1969 and Aaron Prescott is a seasoned soldier. Phipps has included many pertinent characteristics of the time which gives his story a wonderful authenticity. This is the story of Spyder Bones, a mystic warrior. I loved being immersed in the lifestyle of the 60s and 70s. He ensures you get all the necessary parts without being inundated with over-the-top writing or explanations. Phipps has a simple way of writing which gets right to the point. Spyder Bones was an absolute joy for me to read. However, if you're looking for an exciting interpretation of the eternal conflict between good and evil that also includes angels, werewolves, and vampires, this is definitely your book. If you're looking for a typical war/good vs evil tale, then this isn't the book for you.
