Great Sci-Fi book

This is one of the best Sci-fi books I've ever read. The earth has been destroyed and humans fight as part of a coalition. They rank low in the coalition, but exceed on the fighting. Lots of action, a lot of fun.

Truly Epic Sci-Fi

Kendall's "White Wing" ranks as one of the most unappreciated gems in late 20th century science fiction. A meticulously crafted novel with every possible nuance accounted for, I cannot recommend this book strongly enough!

Buy Multiple Copies!

I have a copy of the original (1985) edition. I'm sooo glad that it's been reprinted because I'm constantly recommending it to friends and would only allow even my *best* friend to read it in my house! This book rocks! I've only read it about six times! The 'author' is actually a pseudonym for Susan Schwartz and Sheriann Lewitt. I'm not familiar with the latter but Susan Schwartz has done other, marvelous work. I highly recommend that you get at least two copies of this book because you'll want to loan it to others if not just giving it as a gift. If you know someone on your gift list who loves Heinlein, *this* is the book to buy them!

Outstanding

Hard to put the book down once you start reading the book as you follow the "family" thru hard times and happy times. You will be saddened at the start as "The Wing" loses one of their Aces, Maryam, for the honor of the wing. You will be on pins and needles when Judith takes out a crusier and Dustin makes his 10th. My only wish is for Mr. Kendall to write a sequel to this wonderful book or go as far as a whole series.

One HELL of a read... a real page-turner

I found Mr. Kendall's work to be amazing. The storyline is well developed and the characters are phenomonal. The thought of Earth humans being an orphaned race pitied by the rest of the races is an intriguing concept not often explored. Especially the fact that humans take that shame and turn it into pride. And the "family" tone, absolutely breathtaking. If you can find a copy of this book, GET IT! You will NOT be disappointed
