Stock sci-fi with some nice additions. A decent read but nothing outstanding.
The characters are mostly well fleshed out with a few exceptions. Egad is a nice surprise which I did not meet in a lot of books, so plus points for that.

The two things that do bother me are:
1.) The conflict quickly degenerates into the usual us vs aliens stock story, even though there was a lot of potential in the beginning.
2.) Several actions are paced extremely quickly as if the author wanted to remain under a certain page count. This leaves a feeling of "unfinished" in a few ways.

There is potential there... but perhaps not enough to make me immediately search for the next book in series.

Interesting story. A bit similar to others I've read, but still a decent tale all by itself. If you're a scifi fan, and you like alien stories, this one will probably suit you. If you like exploration of other solar systems as much as I do, then you'll enjoy this one as well.

One of the weakest scifi books I've read in the last two or three years.

Skip it and read something for free from Baen's free library: everything there is better than this.

Good first book in a SiFi series by a great writer. Recommended
