Helpful Score: 1
Many books listed as Science Fiction are heavy on the fiction part and not so interested in the science part. This book is not among them. I wasn't certain how much I would like this book until I got into a few chapters of it and discovered the author using actual physics terms and using them in a way that was understandable while mixing them in with the fiction. Add to this the fact that it is well written, and has great quotes that sound like something someone might actually say and it ends up being a thoroughly enjoyable read, highly recommend!
Yet another fantastic extension of this series. I want another one!

I got this as a free download from Baen's site and read it on my Sony 505.
I was glad I did. This was a nice time waster, with no appreciable value beyond some negligable entertainment. If you liked the first book A LOT, and the next 2 didn't turn you off, this is more of the same.
A decent read, but not worth buying in pbook format at all. Why waste the space?

Excellent book! Characters are well developed, real & alive, science is understandable (i.e. it doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand it). 4th in the series.
