Trial by Fire by Charles E. Gannon
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Charles Gannon Does it Again
Gannon continues his excellent Caine Riordan saga in "Trial by Fire". This time Caine finds himself first in a huge space battle and then in another first contact situation.
The job that Gannon does in imagining the psychology of the insectoid Arat Kur is nothing short of brilliant! I have read no better imagining of a truly alien species than is done in this book.
Like the first book in the series, this book combines great action sequences with solid characterization and abundant political intrigue. This is a must read for military sci-fi fans and fans of good, old-fashioned space opera!
