Over the last few days I have read all 4 of the wandering engineer stories. I really liked the story line and this book didn't disappoint, however it was the weakest in the editing department. There were many big chunks scattered throughout the book that the tenses were totally messed up. I pretty much flow past most minor grammatical errors but these just about brought it to a standstill. You knew what was going on based on  context but it was rough. In my opinion either someone else wrote those sections as they are totally night and day different than the rest of the book or more likely that is how Chris writes his rough drafts and they got missed in the clean up stages of editing.However it is great space opera and I am sad that the next book isn't out already.  The price is ok for the length of the book and the grammatical/editing errors. Many more errors and I wouldn't be even vaguely happy.. Totally cleaned up and I would be happy paying more than the 2.99 it cost me.
