An Interesting Perspective on War
13 Oct 2010
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Kapp uses an seemingly-generic 'Terran Empire vs. Colony Worlds' setting to explore concepts of duty, loyalty, self-discipline, and love. The writing is crisp, there are some interesting twists, and the author deftly paints a future with a minimalist touch. If you are a fan of Burroughs or Doc Smith please give this one a read.
