Very quick read - finished in less than 2 days of reading it. The story moves very quickly, and has some interesting twists and ramifications. I wasn't expecting a lot when I ordered it, but after having read it I can say that I really enjoyed it. There is the potential for a sequel here somewhere, or a spin-off series of books. If you liked any of Karen Traviss' books in the Wess'Har series, you'd enjoy this one for sure. It deals with complexities of the human psyche, has interesting aliens with very alien points of view, and some interesting interpersonal interactions and moral quandaries. I look forward to seeing more books from this team of authors in this same universe.

Pretty good -- I got this one on a whim, since I liked George R. R. Martin's early works like Sandkings. Turns out this is a pretty decent novel, and sets things up nicely for a sequel. Nothing superlative, but a good summer read or a good book to take along on a trip.

Somewhat boring at first, this sci-fi novel got better as you read more, then took some twists that made it a page turner toward the end of the book.
