Loved the alien culture stuff, less enthused about Fitz's general approach to women, or the DEATH AND DISASTER! ending. Also needed more female speaking roles, but was a lot better on this than the next book. Last space adventure for a while I think. (I'm catching up on my backlog of reviews for these books!).

Doctor Who attempts to take on Babylon Five, just a little, in Yquatine, a world where humans and various alien species coexist in uneasy alliance. Except that when the Doctor arrives, it all gets destroyed, and then Fitz is warped back a couple of weeks and falls in love with the President's girlfriend as planetary doom approaches. Several ideas from this book also popped up in last year's TV Who, including the shape-shifting entities which deceptively contain the very people they look like. I enjoyed the same author's Dominion last year and I enjoyed this too.
