John Ringo
John Ringo is an American novelist of science fiction, fantasy, military fiction, techno-thriller and political thriller novels. He writes the Posleen War series, Empire of Man series, Council Wars series, Paladin of Shadows series and more. Ringo served in the U.S. Army, where he made Specialist after four years of active duty. He then served another two years of reserve duty in the Florida National Guard. Ringo draws upon this military experience in his writing for not only his military fiction, but his science fiction as well. He went on to earn his Associate’s degree in Marine Biology, which ended up not paying very well and then decided to start writing science fiction. John lives in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

John Ringo became a published author in 2000 with the novel A Hymn Before Battle (a tribute to Rudyard Kipling‘s poem Hymn Before Action). Below is a list of John Ringo’s books in order of when they were originally released:

    You do great work here. This is my goto site for book series. FYI, there’s another book after “We Few”. I unfortunately don’t know what it is, I think I remember seeing it at the end of another of his books.

    Thanks. Have a great day.

      Hi Jason,

      Thanks for the feedback. Appreciated. I looked into it and I am not seeing any books after “We Few” within that series. There is an omnibus perhaps you are thinking of that?
