Fortchen really understands military tactics (he is a military professor) and writes about them very well. His battles are epic and fun to read about. He doesn't take short cuts either, most people don't actually write "combat" very well. It is either too boring or complete fantasy. Fortchen gives the details within the narrative which is why he is unique. Basically he is the rare combination of intellegence without the boredom.
That series has the best bad guys of any story I have ever read. I started reading those books in 91 and their are scenes in it that I remember to this day after a single read.
