Half-way between an episode of Sharpe and an episode of Star Trek, this was an entertaining read. The resolution of the main battle was thoroughly predictable but that did not spoil the ending. The book was also extremely well read.
Keep in mind the description of the book... it wasn't written to be some powerful tale of conquest or survival, or even of militry mastery. It is, simply, a nice distraction. The characters are obvious, but still, for the most part, likeable. There are a few good twists to keep you engaged, and even though it gets a bit repetative, it carries the flavor of the Tarzan novels of years gone by. It is not a great book, nor funny, but it is engaging and entertaining for what it is.
