The Baba Yaga by Una McCormack, Eric Brown

3.0

I picked this up solely because it's by Una McCormack, who is usually worth the price of admission. Sadly the book turns out to be an instance of a shared universe series (Weird Space) which I don't find that compelling in itself. That said, it's interesting for what it is, and McCormack's SF is unfailingly refreshing: next to none of the main characters are men even though this is military hard-ish SF, and on no occasion does a male character consider a woman's breasts in loving and grotesque detail. I would have liked it just for that.
