It's too bad because the main plot and political intrigue were interesting and I would like to see where it goes from here, but I don't know if I can make myself read more of the series because I really don't like some of these characters (and some of their attitudes about women border on questionable and aren't really challenged by the narrative).
The pacing was also a bit off, but this would have been forgivable if I'd had no other complaints.
You might not care as much about this and just want a good space opera with political intrigue. If that's you, you could still give this book a try and decide for yourself.
