I read this last of the 4 TSN series books, and liked this one the best.  As an avid SF reader I found the author's science closer based on current Physics theory than many I read.  His replicators reminded me of the  commonly used 3D printers coming on line today to include the one recently placed in the current space station to make on demand parts. His use of quantum theory for communications was believable.  I followed his reasoning well as he built his story around human navy survivors plucked from Earth as their ships sank.Placing them on a huge prairie of grass on a planet much larger than earth, it was easily logical to me they would build their prairie wagons as a "navy". Reminds me of my grandmother describing the "prairie schooners" or covered wagons she experienced as a young girl in the late 1800's.  Made me sorry for other readers who didn't have the basis for such rich past experiences or in current physics knowledge.I found this book to be a treasure and a must read.  Do not miss this one.
