What an excellent book! Exactly what I was looking for in a sci-fi story: the perfect mix of space exploration, military action and political intrigue. Amazing characters and perfectly written women. Yes, Kris' wealth sometimes worked as a sort of "deus ex machina" way out but that's the only gripe I have. Everything else was top notch good! Can't wait to read the next book in the series. If you like Jack Campbell's "The Lost Fleet", you will like this one too.
