Review: Cornerstone of a Great New Space Opera
Rating: 4 out of 5

The author put together a fun story and I like the pace of the action. As another reviewer said,"Very Weber like in its development of characters and space battles! Easy to read, hard to put down." Strong character development is almost as important to me as the flow of the combat and action. The story has just the right level of character development for the support characters and the world build is informative and enriching but not does not bog the plot down needlessly.The important back story about the empire and its decay is spooned to us in an informative way rather than one big data dump. I really hope the next book is ready to go soon!
