First off, Aries is awesome. But the novel is... well they through like 5 characters full names (plus callsigns) at you in the prologue. The another 5 or so in the first chapter because we're not following the prologue characters. It's way too much, and I ended up putting it down. Maybe the author was really into these characters but the pacing for a reader is bad.
Buy Elements of Treason: Honor instead.
