I am a soldier, and Rabbit, the main character of Lorna Freeman’s Covenants, is a joke.
Freeman is just all over the place with Rabbit — he’s willing to tangle with someone one minute, and the next minute he’s hiding under his blankets because he’s afraid? The premise of Covenants is very interesting and I enjoyed the plot, but it bugged me that Rabbit acted like a scared kid half of the time and a foul-mouthed tough guy the rest. There is no way that he could have kept that up for three years in the military without subjecting himself to heaps and heaps of ridicule.
Lorna Freeman needs to get some input from someone who has actually been a soldier. Rabbit doesn’t make sense otherwise. Yet, I enjoyed the plot enough that I’ll read the next book, The King’s Own.
