If you've read any of my other reviews you know I'm a Nuttall fan. He is no Heinlein but he writes science fiction and he writes it well. I like to think of it as science fiction for the casual reader. The great thing about science fiction is that what we believe to be beyond the scope of possibility doesn't have to be because... well, it is science fiction.I have enjoyed all three books in this series. The author introduces us to each actor in sufficient detail that we know their strong points and their flaws but he does not bore us to death with insignificant detail that doesn't add to the story. In other words, character development was almost at a perfect level. There are a couple of characters I wanted to really hate but he told us enough about them that we had to understand why they were the human antagonists in the story and it wasn't always all their fault.The Trafalgar Gambit was as perfect ending to the trilogy. Life isn't always fair but it is always life, even in science fiction.
