So American ...

Vatta's war is usually cited among the interesting sci-fi sagas. I bought me the first book but I have not hooked. The storyline is simple and ultimately effective. An heir to a dynasty business is involved in an imbroglio which appears serious as because it is written in the book. She is forced to resign from the army and to give up a promising future officer. She finds herself at the controls of an old cargo ship destined for breaking and manages to end up involved in the outbreak of war. From the beginning, the book is sewn with white thread: one feels the conspiracy in the background. It also handicapped st of everything that makes American authors uninteresting (but probably allows to captivate their audience): long digressions on vaguely related to their evangelical religions multitude, references to "good behavior" (righteoussness). Unlike the saga Honor Harrington or at least the first volumes thereof, the general pattern is only moderately captivating. In short, I leave to others to read and comment on other volumes.
