Review: Very Good Military SciFi, Some Editing Issues
Rating: 4 out of 5

I really enjoyed this book. It takes its inspiration from the CoDominium universe, and especially the Falkenberg's Legion books, with touches of Starship Troopers, but puts enough of its own spin on things to make it stand on its own. The characters, action, and background politics are all well described and written, without going overboard with details. I enjoyed the story line, and will be getting the next book in the series shortly. This is a very strong entry into the military science fiction genre.My one criticism that keeps it from being 5-stars is the editing. There are just lots of classic spell-checker errors, for example the word "even" gets used instead of "ever". If a cleanup pass was done on that, this would be an easy 5-* book.
