Vulcan's Forge" is a fast-paced engaging read. The book is pretty much a formula work with no real suprises or original ideas but the action is well written and well informed.
The characters are pretty transparent and not very well developed and the end is predictable. The hero is car wrecked, shot, run over by a train, crashed in a helocopter and involved in numerous fights with people who out class him but he does the Timex thing and keeps on ticking despite numerous injuries. He survives due to repeated instances of incredible good luck.
Although it is far from the best book I have read in this genre, if you have an afternoon with nothing to do it is entertaining in a no thought required sort of way.
