Helpful Score: 2

I had wanted to read something written by this author for quite some time. Scott Westerfeld's book reminds me of "Battlestar Gallactica" only in that it is a juxtaposition of talking/politics and wartime, in sort of, IMHO, like submarine-like conditions. Did I like it. My genre, though NOT my place/space in the SF genre. It WAS interesting enough that it kept me reading it thru to the end, for curiosity, and good story line. A well-written book. I'm just more of a Mercedes Lackey, John Scalzi and Catherine Asaro "sf" reader. Good book though. It really deserves more stars than I am giving it, however, honesty IS. It just isn't my sf book-type, but I recognize it really is a very excellent book.
