Very brief tale set just after Old Man's War. Enjoyed the introduction of Savitri, and this story leads nicely to The Last Colony.

A simple nice short story set after book 1. Like spending time with a friend but not amazing.

Short and sweet. It even infodumps some events and terminology for people who have been away from the series for a while.
