The fourth in the Privateer Tales series, this short story (47 pages) steps back in time to the Great ian War. .
Shot down behind enemy lines, all Marine Sergeant Pete Hoffen can think of is getting the remainder of his beleaguered platoon back to the extraction zone. But when a cocky, PITA lieutenant orders him to leave behind one of his own, he'll have nothing to do with it.
Big Pete fights to locate his men and get the wounded out of the city, rescue his missing pilot, and avoid ripping the entire city down around him. His capture brings an entirely new problem. Who will rescue the rescuer?
There's a reason Liam Hoffen goes up against great odds in order to do the right thing. He learned from his father that sacrifice and honor go hand in hand.
Big Pete Privateer Tales Book 4 eBook Jamie McFarlane
Privateers is a good read with well-developed characters and an entertaining story line. It is the first series that I have read in a very long time that had well developed foundational science on which the rest of the story framework is based. The use of AI, smart fabric, and Internet of things, was very well integrated into the story and extended into the future. The only nits I have to pick with the series are the improbable interrelationships between some of the characters, the illogical expansion from the Milky Way to the Dwingeloo galaxy, which is 10 million light-year away from Earth. There are many other choices much closer, such as Andromeda, at 2.5 million. Additionally, it is unlikely that the 100 to 400 billion stars within the Milky Way could have been explored. One last nick pick, was the reference to the Marny Bertrand, a former Marine, who is referred to as a Master Chief, which is a Navy rank. The correct rank for a Marine E9 would be Master Gunnery Sergeant, or Gunny.Product details

Big Pete Privateer Tales Book 4 eBook Jamie McFarlane Reviews
Way too short, this could have been a novel, well written, lots of fighting, neat backstory to the series, get them all, they are addictive!
I love all of Jamie McFarlane's stories so far. Fast, easy to read, good story that fits well together. He seems to have a good combination of detail without getting bogged down in it. Also, he integrates Scifi technology without overwhelming you with the lingo or long explanations. I like that because it starts to feel more real. I also like the fact that he doesn't make the world an evil place, it's just a place with good and bad people in it.
This short work in between series books shows how Liam Hoffen’s parents got together. In truth, I would rather have moved on to the next full-length novel. This story was basically one big battle scene where boy meets girl. It doesn’t add much to the series as a whole and lacks character depth compared to a longer book. It would have been enough for Liam to say his parents had served in the military forces.
Big Pete (Privateer Tales, Book 4) by Jamie McFarlane is a bit disappointing. My first issue is that this is primarily back story. That's not a bad thing if the back story is fleshed out. However, I felt like Big Pete was given short shrift, and I was expecting much more. To bad. The possibilities would have made for a great story.
In Big Pete, author Jamie McFarlane redeems himself from a lackluster 3rd book in the series to come back with an excellent future military tale of how the main character of the Privateer Series' mother and father first met (although the book doesn't come out and say it). It's a first-rate tale of how a future Marine goes after a downed pilot to rescue her, only for both of them to get trapped behind enemy lines. Want more? Read it for yourself. McFarlane is one of my favorite new authors.
Again, this is really a short story, that could have been bypassed. Had I realized it was a short story I would not have purchased it. Since then I've joined Unlimited, Since it allows me to read most of books for free (monthly subscription). I did enjoy "Big Pete" and it would have been a good stand alone novel had the author decided to do that. The Privateer Tales are really a good series, just make sure if you are buying the books make sure you know the type or length of the book. )

I like all of the Privateer Tales but you need to really read at least the first few in order for best enjoyment. If your a stickler about such things you can find a couple of editing errors in the entire series and my only true negative comment is that they seem to put 1 book out of place in the series (the one where the little thief first meets the crew wish i could remember book number its like 7 ?). The series is great, nice plot steady movement throughout some violence (detailed) and the sexual content is not detailed merely there as humorous or fact of life that these characters are people you can become invested in. Try the first 2 books and if you like them half as much as I did you will probably find yourself reading the entire series
