review 1: Summary: Hard core military SF space opera special. Totally over the top and immensely enjoyable, albeit very unsubtle. The battle set-ups and descriptions are quite amazing and the balance of power intriguing.Plotline: A good plot, simple at some levels but with astonishing breadthPremise: I like this universe, though some of the 'physics' needs to be glossed over to make it all work and consistently believable.Writing: Simple, direct, the reader is transported right into the action.Ending: Oh yes, you need to read this on. OTTPace: Never a dull moment
