Five hundred years from now, humankind has found a link to a remarkably Earth-like planet and settled there, dividing –as humans will — into dozens of nation-states. The Federated States of Columbia has consolidated power and risen against the oppression of Earth's corrupt Caliphate. But when Salafi madmen bent on a new jihad kill FSC Captain Patrick Hennessey's family in a cowardly attack, they create an enemy that will show even less mercy than they do.
A legendary warrior is born: Carrera, the scourge of Salafism. He will forge an army from the decrepit remains of a military in a failing state. He will find those who killed his family. He will destroy them utterly. And he will try like hell to not become exactly like the enemy he is fighting.
Only when he is finished will there be peace: the peace of an empty wind as it blows across a desert strewn with the bones of Carrera's enemies.

A Desert Called Peace (Desert Called Peace Series #1)
This book sure had me fooled. The cover caught my eye, the title was intriguing (though Biblical) and the description sounded pretty good. However, I did not finish this book. But, I did read enough of it to see it for what it was.
I know that some Military Sci-Fi gives plenty of nods to the right wing. And I'm fine with that, even being the radical liberal that I am who devours every word that David Weber writes. But for the love of God this book was just pure fucking hate speech. This book hits the trifecta here with sexism, racism, homophobia; all of which are BLATANTLY shoved in your face. So if you like hate and bigotry shoved down your throat in an ignorant Fox news type of way by means of a poorly written sci-fi epic this book is for you.
I sincerely wish I had done some research before buying this book as I now regret that such a hateful, vile doucheturd has 7 dollars and 99 cents of my hard earned money. Or however much Baen gave him. Shame on you, Baen.
Mr. Kratman, go fuck yourself.
