I have read all four of Tanya Huff's Torin Kerr novels and enjoyed each one. The character is a strong woman, who first as a Staff Sargent and later a Gunnery Sargent is tasked with leading a mixed company of humans and extra-terrestrials. This she does with firmness, humanity and humor. I found myself laughing out loud at her sarcastic comments; something I don't usually do. The author has deftly woven high adventure with physical descriptions and proclivities of creatures from other worlds. In Valor's Trial, Torin is faced with a seemingly impossible task. She manages to save the day, only after much struggling, both physical and emotional. My only disappointment is in the ending. I'll say no more!
