I did not expect my heart to be ripped from my chest when I first picked up this book. Science fiction, military novels can be a bit cheesy at times, but Dark Edge of Honor blew me away. The romance, the world building, the characters…all of it was truly spectacular. I am in awe of the authors’ ability to infuse so many intricate details into an action-packed, steamy, military romance. Plus, the writing style was wonderful. And yes, there is a happy ever after that fits the story perfectly.
The audiobook narration was extremely well-done. I loved the accents the narrator did and the energy he infused into the performance.

FUCKYEAH SPACEDRAGONS.
Cunning plot.
Almost gorgeous in its symmetry and opportunity for satisfying conflict, which could easily have powered even more delicious tension for another hundred pages.
The voice in the prose was more playful than what I've seen of Mr. Voinov's catalogue before, and while I haven't yet read any of Ms. Etzweiler's work before this, I assume it is a product of their collaboration. While I prefer and very much admire Voinov's typical efficiency—as my own early work suffered from an unfortunate enthusiasm for extravagance in both tone and style—I find I have an enduring fascination for what the happens to Voinov's razor-sharp and ecumenical prose when passed through the prism of another writer's own distinctions.
But never mind my nerdery—this thing was fun.
Also? FUCKYEAH! DRAGONS! IN SPACE!
