In this humorous space saga the inter-genderal space fleet juxtaposes nicely with our all-male terrain military as does the future mind with the not-so-future humans. My husband had quite a ferocious glint in his eyes, so I know Mr. Weber's ingredients have been blended together to make a worthy & potent piece of work. I enjoyed the adventure, the new ideas, vistas & possibilities & I'm not going to give away a thing! You have to read this one for yourself. END
