Bear Head by Adrian Tchaikovsky. A sequel to Dogs of War - you really need to have read that first. The first two thirds of the book seemed to be mostly back story passed on in an awkward manner by multiple first person narrators. There was an interesting story buried in it, somewhat similar to aspects of the first book, but more direct. The last third finally started to move along and show some different ideas. It ended up a good enough yarn, it just seemed to take a long time to get there and failed to really convince me when it did. The first book was much better. 3/5.
