My rating: 5 out of 5
Rory Miller comes across as a good guy, but I wouldn’t want to bump into him a dark alley. Many of the examples in this writer’s guide come from his experiences; he’s been a prison guard, tactical police officer and a host of others, so he knows what he’s talking about. Folks in the UK have very little experience of guns, even the little details that Americans take for granted would be unknown to us, but Rory spans that knowledge divide excellently, for people of all experience levels.
The book does have a habit of repeating, sometimes within a few pages, so it could’ve done with a bit more editing, but the information is invaluable, and the writing engaging. An excellent writing resource.
