Off World Force Recon, the first in the fight, the tip of the spear. With human colonies on 45 worlds and space stations in over a hundred different systems, serving with the elite Force Recon branch of the Extra Solar Defense Force is the most prestigious career anyone could hope for. Warfare is almost exclusively the domain of remotely operated drones, but when things go wrong, in space or on a colony world, the Off World Recon gets the call and they always come prepared. Dean is a young man with plenty of prospects ahead of him, but when he gets selected for the most coveted job in the world, he jumps at the chance. Little does he know the rigors of training to become an elite Force Recon specialist or the dangers waiting for him in off-world tours of duty that sometimes last for years on end, but it’s always been his dream to charge into the unknown with a band of brothers, facing any threat to humanity’s expansion across the galaxy and etching his name into the annals of history. The only question is does he have what it takes to stand between the threats of the galaxy and the rest of the human race? We Are the Wolf is the first book in an exciting new military space opera that will have you riveted from the very first page. Toby Neighbors reimagines what service in a militarized space force would look like and takes his readers on a roller coaster ride that introduces them to a whole new world of adventure. From training across the globe to missions in outer space, We Are the Wolf will capture your imagination and have you cheering for more.

I am a retired Infantryman and if I could have given this book less than one star I would have.The author had an excellent idea for a book, and then turned around and ruined that idea by writing the book. It is readily apparent the author knows little to nothing about the military and didn't bother trying to educate himself prior to writing it; and his concept of Heavy Armor is laughable at best. You do not load recon folks down like pack mules and then expect them to accomplish a mission, yet this author puts a turtle shaped shield on an infantryman's back and expects him to walk backwards towards the enemy, and did I mention a automatic flechette gun that only has an effective range of 200 ft. And another member of the unit carries 6 different weapons systems? The author violates so many hard learned, military principles in this work I lost count.
I had high hopes for this book in the first couple of chapters, and then the obvious ignorance of anything military kicked in. I kept reading it thinking it could not get any worse, yet it did. And the ending of the book was contrived beyond belief.
As I understand it this author is a success in another genre. He should stick to that genre. He clearly can not write about anything Military.

We Are The Wolf Wolfpack Toby Neighbors Books Reviews
Yes...there might have been some flaws in the "Heaven Weapons" tactics etc., however I enjoyed the Character and the story the author was trying to tell. Although the young Lt. questioned himself sometimes, thankfully there wasn't any of the sniveling self-loathing that I have found lately in a number of reads.
I read this book on Unlimited. I am a 24 yr. retired Veteran. I have been reading SciFi for more than 50 yrs.
This was without exception the worst military scifi book I've read so far!
Why?
1. There is so little character development in the MC that he is little more than a cardboard cutout.
2. The supposed military training is a joke, a facade, shallow, unrealistic and frankly insulting to the reader.
3. The authors concepts of Heavy Armor are ridiculous and truly laughable.
4. The lack of world building leaves the reader wondering about MOST of the supposed technology, completely ignoring the Science in Science
Fiction!
5. There are so many plot holes, inexplicable decisions by the MC and outright wrong concepts embodied in this book to make it a trial to read.
6. The MC is a selfish boy who uses and then dumps a young woman, DESPICABLE!
Overall, it just wasn't any fun to read, wasn't believable, didn't encourage me to become truly engaged in the MC, the supporting characters or
the story at all.
I don't recommend this book to SciFi readers.
I didn't like the book. This doesn't mean it was bad, but I really didn't like it.
Well written series I truly enjoyed the storyline and plot twists and cannot wait to see where this writer takes me next.
If your into military SciFi then this series is a must have
A well written coming of age sci fi tale with little that is new.
One thing that bugs me is the modern practice of portraying humans as aliens. Do you see females matching men in combat roles in today's militaries ? No. So why write like sjw feminist indoctrination is factual when all it does is make humanity just another alien species .
I bought this book looking for a good scifi book. This book was so terrible I had to stop after a few chapters in. There is no character development, its like the writer was trying to fly through everything. I dont need to go into detail, but this book was not worth the buy. I wish I could get my money back. If you want a good scifi military series, read The Frontlines Series by Marko Kloos, much better!
How badly someone can write military SF. This is a how-to book in bad writing.
Apparently, a fresh high school graduate with a mere two weeks of indoctrination can be assigned the rank of ensign and sent to officer's school, where in four weeks he will learn all the leadership he needs...as the only "legendary Recon Marine" (direct quote from the book while he and the other new ensigns - all of whom are going into other branches - are being briefed on the structure of the military).
Five hundred rounds per person per day for two weeks is excessive for rifle training. Especially if they start on the first day of boot camp with no weapons experience. And they will never use that weapon again in the fleet.
You load magazines, not clips. And a 50rd mag is unwieldy.
A shuttle to orbit that launches from a rail shouldn't need booster rockets...and certainly shouldn't dispose of them...and definitely shouldn't be using them to move one boot ensign to orbit who hasn't even learned the rank structure.
The most inefficiently run military training scheme ever.
Worse, I am 1/4 into the book and I still don't really know who the character is!! So far, he is just a POV who volunteered for glory. He's a complete non-entity. Barely any dialogue. Doesn't seem to have any agency.
I try not to get upset when people write about the military without knowing a lot about it. But when you attempt to describe an entire military force structure as part of the book...you really need to know how these things work. It's worse than Star Trek's rank muddle.
This is bad. The fact it's supposed to be a series makes it worse.
I am a retired Infantryman and if I could have given this book less than one star I would have.
