3.0
I didn't find this book as engaging as the first two in the series. It went too far into the weeds of political intrigue for my taste as opposed to the greater sci-fi focus of the first two, and Victor Hunt's star seems to have inexplicably dimmed compared to Danchekker. Women characters played a more prominent role in this story than in the first two, and not just as secretaries or love interests, so that boosted the overall rating for me.
