Every time I read a book in this series, I am surprised to find that I can hold my breath much longer than I thought. I am also surprised that I continue to enjoy reading a sci-fi series. I think that's because, although it is a futuristic, inter-stellar epic, it also contains a large dose of fantasy in the form of the Kreelans.The meaning behind the title "Legend of the Sword" was quite a surprise, but made perfect sense.Mr. Hicks continues to make me care about the characters, both human and Kreelan. And he is not above making me cry over those who die in this ongoing conflict. Again, both human and Kreelan.The author tipped the scales more toward sci-fi than fantasy with the introduction of Scarlet/Valentina in this installment. Nevertheless, I liked the character, although I would have liked to know more about her.Looking forward to the next one.
