Xpress Reviews WEB-FIRST REVIEWS OF BOOKS AND MEDIA In fiction, Jack Campbell's Triumphant, book three in the "Genesis Fleet" series, features Campbell's "sure hand with military sf balanced with political intrigue and heroic protagonists ready to spring into action. His fans will be thrilled, and readers of John Ringo and David Weber should find a lot to like here." In nonfiction, Jack Fairweather's The Volunteer: One Man, an Underground Army, and the Secret Mission To Destroy Auschwitz, is "most appropriate for war or military history readers, but [also] an important story of the Holocaust that deserves to be heard." MacDoodle St., by Mark Alan Stamaty, is this week's starred graphic novel. "Readers looking for an extremely funny metacomic will enjoy this work immensely, as will those wanting a taste of 1970s New York City. The addendum is a fascinating, personal portrait of the life of a creative artist." And in e-originals, Cat Sebastian's A Duke in Disguise, the second title in the "Regency Imposters" series, is "recommended for readers of Regency romance, particularly those who love their heroines in nontraditional roles."
