Definitely not one to read without having recently read the previous books in the series. I got caught up around half way through, but it would have been a lot better to have re-read the other books in the series before starting.

Rather a mid-series book. A couple of minor resolutions, lots of things happen, but it definitely feels just like part of a larger work. I don't think there's really enough of a story (beginning, middle, end) happening in the book.

On the other hand, I will certainly buy and read the next one. Although if it also takes a few years to arrive, I'll try to make the time to re-read the earlier ones next time!

Next I have some older SF — The Compleat Bolo by Keith Laumer. This is an omnibus edition comprising Bolo (1976) and Rogue Bolo (1986).
