 A unique book that made for an interesting reading session.  Luke is a talented writer who needs more people to recognize and appreciate his work. Red Gambit really stands out among the read-and-forget crop of SF/F books on the market right now. The story feature a main character whose sense of humor does not seem to ever fade no matter how dire the situation is. This is one of the few books whose author choose to stick with the main story line and tries to deliver it to the reader as fast as possible. Others normally choose to drag out for at least a chapter trying to explain how a character got a scar. In Red Gambit, if you blink, good luck, see ya, we have already move on to a different part of the story. The result? A medium density book that is packed with actions, humor, stand out characters as well as a captivating story. Can't wait to get my hands on the second books of the series.
