The Locum Tenens is a new action-packed
serialization created by the talented Jay Beckstead. In Book One, we are introduced to Mike who
has always dreamed of attending advanced schooling. He is smart as a whip, but not very
athletic. When his brother is discharged
from military training, it is up to Mike to take his place – giving up the opportunity
for higher learning. The training will
be hard and life as he knows it will change – but will it be for the
better? Will Mike be able to survive?
In Book Two, the story continues as Mike and the
other inductees go through vigorous and life threatening training. They had to learn techniques in order to
survive the Deprivation Chamber Dunk Tank and go through Gas Chamber
training. Several of the inductees drop
out and some are less fortunate and die.
Yep, this is harsh and brutal training these young men endure. But what is the end result? How many more will perish? And what is the government’s plan for
Mike? Hopefully these questions and more
will be answered in future installments of this serial novel.
The training techniques the inductees have to go
through is beyond barbaric - it was
somewhat hard to read about, but Mr. Beckstead draws you into this story with
his descriptive writing and you want to know more. I really like Mike and you can’t help but
cheer him on as he tries to live up to his community’s expectations.
Whereas the previous volume seemed to be an
introduction of sorts, Volume Two dealt more with the training aspects that
Mike and the other inductees had to endure.
This volume was filled with action, but there was a lot of military stuff
going on. Interesting stuff if you are
into military history and what not. I
can’t wait to see where this series is going because I need to know what the
government has planned for Mike. It’s
got to be important, because why else would they keep him in the training
program?
So with that, I will stay tuned for the next
installment of this action-packed story that definitely has kept me on the edge
of my seat wanting to know more!
