銀河英雄伝説 3 雌伏篇 [Ginga eiyū densetsu 3] by Yoshiki Tanaka

4.0

I'm not reading these for deathless prose and that is GOOD.

More fun, although starting to double down on the heavier philosophical issues inherent in statecraft, democracy, war, and nationalism. Expecting some shocks later, and not just because the last sentence of this installment is "By the way, there's a big old shock coming up." Tanaka foreshadows with semaphore flags.

Yang remains wonderful, Reinhard will be far more interesting when he ceases mourning, and the Phezzan crew is a ball of snakes. This is a solid couple hundred pages of space opera.
