Collecting them all in one places points out some similarities that would otherwise go unnoticed. But a fun, quick read, as expected. 4/5
Next up:
The Span of Empire by Eric Flint and David Carrico. The third in Eric Flint's Jao Empire series, the first two being written with K. D. Wentworth.
I probably read the first in 2003. I read the second in 2010, when I gave it 4/5.
I confess I've forgotten the books entirely. Hopefully there'll be enough in the third volume to remind me.
Hmm.. back in 2010 I wrote "The story came back to me fairly quickly, and I enjoyed the sequel.". Let's hope the verdict is the same this time!
