Well, I suspect it would have to be better. I'd only give WoF about a 2 to 2.5 out of 5. And that only because I like the overall premise/series.

But it does tend to linger on some of the abuse stuff (apparently the co-author used to be some sort of paramedic/emergency room nurse who saw unfortunate things), so I'd advise just skimming to refresh yourself on the story if you have to (it gets a vague mention in Chrome Circle, but is not as important to that story as WoF was in setting up Joe's backstory).

Hmmm. Well, maybe after I've got a few others on my TBR out of the way. It just got a big bump from the July Baen Monthly Book Bundle (and the back books I need to read to catch up. ) I do enjoy the SERRA series as a whole, so I'll likely circle back around.
