Conflict of Honors

I wasn't expecting to enjoy this one as much as I did, but after the first chapter it just dragged me in, it's like a catnip book to me, extremely overcompetent people, being nice to each other, working on a spaceship, it's like the thing that I like the most, it's written well as well :) Just a lot of fun, that hit me very well, might be set and setting, I don't care I really enjoyed this.

This was the very first Liaden book I discovered, way back a long long time ago. I think its still my favorite. It was one of the first ones written, too, so if you read it after reading some of the other ones you many, indeed find little inconsistencies as the authors' world has adjusted or gotten explained more. But its a fabulous book, and I'm getting ready to re-read it again. I love the connections to stories about other times (see the Chapbooks of old for more, they are available in collections now). And yes - I adore Miri, and Val Con, and Theo, and Pat Rin, but I met them later. I have a special love for Priscilla and Shan. If it is not to your taste, read some of the other ones. This is a rich universe, and the authors have created fascinating characters, planets, and societies to think about. Seriously, not to be missed!!
