Good story subpar performance

All character sound the same, male or female. Except for Cheng, who is Russian but sounds more like a German Canadian.

Scope of the story, number of books, and most of the characters.

I despise Cameron. The character is so negative and filled with contempt for the Captain that it's a turn off. I served in significant leadership positions in the military and although I encouraged a team leadership style with open communication, I would have sideline someone like Cameron by this point as her lack of vision, creativity, negativity, and feet dragging would have canceled out any contribution she could make. I would easily be able to find a replacement who could contribute the skills she offers while gaining someone who could also be more forward thinking and team oriented. She is like an anchor to any proactive leadership group.

Favorite in the series so far.

The performance and the story had me engaged the whole time and a very suspenseful ending had me up way past my bedtime...

Another excellent installment the Frontier Saga.

Very good sci-fi, good narration. Author is a bit heavy-handed on the details at times.
