Review: Excellent Space Opera
Rating: 5 out of 5

Fast moving space opera and military SF book. The plot is well developed as is character development of the main character. The story is set around the usual space colony in distress plot. Currie handles this well. One special forces operator makes it to the surface and organizes a local resistance force. Meantime off planet there are space battles and the usual political maneuvering.To nitpick, there is one factual problem that the author should fix. In one place he refers to 300,000km being the same as 2 AU. Two AU would be about 300,000,000km so you might think that this was just a decimal error. But later he refers to the same distance as 24 light seconds which is about 7,200,00 km. A  minor editing problem. He also jumps back and forth between metric kilometers and traditional miles. Settle on one or the other.He also uses the politically correct but silly, female super warrior character, something female authors I know refer to as Chicks with D**ks. But just ignore that and enjoy the story. It's well worth reading.
