Review: Very good tactical SF novel.

The book was well-written with very few spell-check problems.  The author has a solid style and knows how to tell a story.  I thought it definitely leaned heavily on the technical with perhaps a shade less development of the characters. Frankly, pages and pages of battle tactics got old after a while. Still, and interesting novel.  There was quite a lot territory for the development of the backstory re: planetary expansion, but the author chose to downplay this aspect. We are dropped into an tiered universe with the cyborgs in charge.  That seems to be worth the time to explain rather than specific battle plans.All in all, I'd give this novel a 3 for characters and backstory and a 4  for tactics.  And a definite shiver for human quantum singularities.I don't see this story worthy of a follow-on novel, but that's just me.
