This is well written and edited. You gave a lot information and detail to the build up and fight. No, there wasn't any surprises to the outcome but it was well done.

The witch jumping Daniel's bones had to be a bit of a surprise . . . or more of a shock? I'm saving the surprises for the end!
Thanks for your review, Sir! As always, you are appreciated!

Douglas,
Another great chapter with lots of action and more good marine stuff! Loved seeing Big Jim taken down. Sort of a David and Goliath situation. Loved the ending. No sixes left to my dismay. Big kudos. Found a few minor tweaks.

Susan,
Not perfect but acceptable level of mistakes. I laughed out loud when I read this : Ladies?!? I'd buy "women."
Too funny!
Olivia is a strong character who will develop into a primary participant. Now that Dat has his "army", I guess we shall see what he can do!
Thank you once again. You are appreciated!!!
