I'm a bit upset, I didn't start this book sooner. It is fun and well paced. The story is nothing groundbreaking, but a great read through a military based futuristic thread.

I have to admit though, after a great ground campaign. Some tense escape scenes, I was actually a little let down by the final sequence. It wasn't that it was lacking in pace or anything, just disappointed it went straight for the alien race more advanced than us and in that advanced race, no one stopped to ask if there could be any coexistence. That trope is a bit tiring, but I will definitely pick up the rest of these and give them a go.
