Yeah it was ok. And definitely didn't realize it was 1 book out of 50 that have been published since 2015????? Don't know if I'll read anymore.

I did enjoy this space opera, and liked most of the characters- but as the case with these kind of stories there was a lot going on, and trying to remember who was who kept me from flying thought this one.
There were a lot of names, designations, different ranks, acronym operations (TSF, ChoSec, MOS, STR, GSS ect) you get the gist. So I'll be honest in that this 300+ book felt like a bit longer for me because I personally like to speed read and kept getting tripped up on the mass amount of characters.
Also, at no point did I feel that Tanis wasn't going to come out on top. Like, if there was any random problem ever at any point in the story- no worries Tanis will somehow always know the answer, and is already a step ahead.
Yeah, it makes her seem like a badass extraordinaire...but... maybe it was in the way the tension was written that I wasn't wholly invested, or maybe it was giving me the lead character is too OP so this is a bit anti-climactic kinda vibes.
All in all I did enjoy the story and may read on to the next one!
