Well, for me it turned out not to be interesting. I've got about half way through it and I'm just not interested. Abandoned: Too much of an attempt to be epic, an entirely unconvincing world that seems to treat its inhabitants as puppets, and far too much back story shoved in willy-nilly.
The prologue worked OK. The first half of the book did not. I won't be bothering with any more in this series.
Next up:
Captain Flandry by Poul Anderson, part of a Baen monthly bundle I bought back in October 2009 as well (but a different monthly bundle to the previous book).
