- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5In my humble opinion, her best work! The book was so exciting, I couldn't stop reading until I read it all! Three friends who stick together through everything, and a shipful of people who hate them but learn to respect them. I am one of the few who read her original version of this book, and I didn't think she could improve on it. I was wrong! Expanded and even better. Who says Diana Palmer just writes romances?? This book proves she can also write science fiction, and well. There are more to come in this series, and I am eagerly awaiting Morcai Battalion: The Recruit, which will come out under Susan S Kyle. There will be at least one more in the series, and likely more than that.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Very simplistick storyline, had the style of a book written in the 1930s. Enjoyable read.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5excellent read
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Light years from Palmer's fluffy romances, this is a space opera complete with Amazonian medics, alien lifeforms, clones, politics, intrigue, interstellar battles, torture, comrades in arms, and forbidden love. All in all, a pleasant surprise.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5I gave up after reading about 20% of this book. I just could not process all the terms and names author keeps throwing at us. We have names of different races, planets, equipment... and most of the things are not explained what are they. I don't like sci-fi novels like that. Because it is happening on another planet, it does not mean that you have to invent new name for everything. Tolkien even did not go that far.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Picked this one up at random from the library. Forget Ursula le Guin and Doris Lessing: this book is old-fashioned space opera with laser beams and naval camaraderie. I wasn't far in before I realized that it reminded me of the one book I have read from Lois McMaster Bujold's Vorkosigan sequence. It even incorporates the same scenario: Terran woman at the mercy of alien bad-ass general finds him not as bad as the propaganda painted him. If I had ever heard of the author I might have been expecting the romance element, which I didn't find a problem. MB 20-iii-2012
