No need to worry about a british-style regime, as the Cinnabar empire is modelled mostly on Republican Rome. Any Space Opera series with a librarian as a protagonist is worth looking into.
First of all, Thank You!

Second, The first 3 books of the RCN series are all part of the Baen series!

With the Lightnings

Lt. Leary Commanding

The Far Side of the Stars


Sorry to be but I have a question for those who use Baen regularly:

Do you know why the prices are included for the free books? Is that a donation suggestion?
