Space Carrier Avalon: Very good military space opera.
This was military space opera in my style. A good hero, a war brewing, and capital ships slugging it out.

Uncompromising Honor: Too much talk and not enough Honor.
I used to really like Honor Harrington as well as a lot of the other works from David Weber. Unfortunately his later works consists of a lot of talk, talk more talk and not enough real action by the characters involved.
Imperial Sunset: Good implementation of a fairly common theme.
On the whole I thought this book was quite enjoyable. Most of the people are quite likable and the ones who are not usually gets what they deserve in the end. There are plenty of action and suspense and the action is not bad at all.
Rampage: Don’t think, just enjoy the huge monster action.
Bottom line, two hours of good entertainment providing that monsters on rampage is your kind of movie.
Her Majesty’s American: Too much what…if pondering and not enough real story.
The author is spending a lot of time on why things did not turn out as the history books tell us they did, about the political machinations around it and so on and so forth. Way too much for this reader.
Blood of the Earth: Not at all bad but still not really my cup of tea either.
I have quite enjoyed Faith Hunter’s Jane Yellowrock series so I had some hopes that I would like this one as well. Well, it is not at all a bad book. The writing is as good as one has come to expect from this author. Unfortunately I found the story to not really be my cup of tea.
Bound by Law: Good ending to a good trilogy.
Brad has come a long way from being a lonely survivor of a freighter attacked by pirates in the first book. He is still pursuing his quest for revenge but the story has expanded to put it mildly.
