A review by travelgirlut
The Short Victorious War by David Weber

3.0

Really closer to 2.5 stars. This book had far too much political meanderings and not near enough space action. The whole first two-thirds of the book should have taken up one-third or less, and the space battles at the end should have been fleshed out to take up the bulk of the book. Everything that ends up happening in the Yeltsin system you find out about as a summary at the end! You don't even get to read it as it's happening. A little disappointing. I'm not giving up on the series yet, but the trending towards politics instead of exciting space action is not a good sign.
