4.0

There are some significant introductions in this volume, mainly in that of Flower, the sentient Dollnick ship who will be taking a sizable number of humans around on a circuit. Writing this from the vantage point of several years after it was published, I know that that same sentient ship will become the setting / protagonist for Foner's spin-off series, which I look forward to reading one day. That said, this particular book felt like it was a back-door pilot for that series, like it was written to set things up for future volumes, not for much to happen in this one. Which is okay. At 13 books into a series, things like this can be expected as a way to keep both the readers and the writer interested. So, all that said, this is fun, but not quite as good as some of the others in the series.
