As Anthologies go, this was one of the better ones that I have read. There were only two stories I thought were weak compared to the rest, and they weren't horrible. Kill The King, by Christopher Ruocchio, Lifer, by Chris Reher, and To Become Death, by Christopher Hopper, were my favorites.

Poor to average stories
I was disappointed by the general low quality of the stories. There's are some good ideas and some writing showed potential but it's lacking in too many ways.

Great Collection
Great selection of Mil Sci Fi, has echoes of there will be war by Jerry Pournelle. Only difference is no discussion of strategy.
