While Ostensibly a novel, 'The White Guns' is essentially an interconnected series of short stories covering a period of about 12 months. Concise character development, precise plotting and structure are not Reeman's strengths, but are a requirement for the type of book he has undertaken here. The result is a disjointed melange of competing plots, all of which are ultimately disappointing.
Only recommended for the serial "complete-ists" amongst us ( )
