The universe of the novel is politically diversified enough, two political blocs, agencies and all-powerful consortium and prioritized with contradictory interests or encor nested.
The first part of the novel asks this geopolitics while also setting up this planet that is undeniably foreign and pleasantly.
The issue of war correspondents in this not very clear campaign that seems launched or about to be, on the colonial world.
It seems that what we propose to journalists either: the side in terms of the validity and authenticity of topics to cover.
That is why the main character accept being embedded in the cortex of a young soldier to access the real theater of operations and to explore the springs of this conflict.
From technology perspective rely implement the novel quite sure.
The characters are believable embodiment of these technological potential and they truly give life to the universe, which makes me say that it is a novel of a successful romantic perspective.
There is not in the springs of intrigue what move mountains.
But, it's a good time overall military SF, since two thirds of the novel (a little more) happen on the scene of military operations and that it is highly credible from the perspective of military commitments (contexts, commissioning works, scope, descriptions and analyzes).
The issue of media in wartime is fairly well placed although not very diverse ways or very argumentative, but the complicated situation resulting from that specific and alternate universe is nevertheless asked consistently.
A good novel by credible military science fiction, well paced, swinging ...
A military SF novel ... so do not get caught taking it for anything else, at risk of being sore and be disappointed!
