4.0 out of 5 stars Take a back seat Ripley, 2 Mar 2004
By Theresa (Birmingham United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
In the tradition of Robert Heinlein and other great Masters of SF Space Opera, Huff delivers a rollicking yarn and a fine sequel to her earlier "Zulu" inspired "Valor's Choice". Whereas her first novel featuring the enigmatic, tough heroine Staff Sergeant Torin Kerr introduces her world concept and dominant characters, this sequel gives Torin Kerr a chance to shine and kick a*** with style. She is every woman's heroine, never hesitating to speak her mind as she decapitates her enemy. It is very reminiscent of Heinlein's much earlier "Starship Troopers", with its very own "Bugs" as the enemy, but is good fun nonetheless. A worthwhile investment for your time, money and energy. As always, Huff's female protagonists are strong, assertive and incredibly witty.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another winner by Ms Huff, 20 Mar 2002
By A. Whiffin "licelli" (Northampton . UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have just finished reading "The better part of Valor": read it in two days...and I am now suffering from withdrawal symptoms! I would like some more, please Ms Huff...? Since I started reading Ms Huff's books, 16 in all, I have come to love this writer; her books are funny as well as full of pathos, and this last book is proof of it. I know nothing of military stuff but I still anjoyed both the technical part as well as the interplay with the caracters. She describes aliens in such a way that we forget they really are a product of fiction. For me her books rate up there at the top, toghether with McMaster Bujold and L K Hamilton. So ms Huff when can we read more about Staff Sargent Kerr??
