"Ia is a precog, blessed--or cursed--with visions of the future. She has witnessed the devastation of her home galaxy three hundred years in the future, long after she is gone, but believes she can prevent it. Enlisting in the modern military of the Terran United Planets, Ia plans to rise through the ranks, meeting and influencing important people and building a reputation that will inspire others for the next three centuries. But she needs to be assigned to the right ship, the right company, and the right place to earn that reputation honestly--all while keeping her psychic abilities hidden from her superiors, who would refuse to risk such a valuable gift in combat. To save the galaxy, Ia must become someone else: the soldier known as Bloody Mary."--P. [4] of cover.

In one word: tedious. Gave up with a hundred pages to go, but thought about it a hundred pages earlier. Nothing dispels tension like a heroine who accomplishes every challenge put before her not through her wits, but because she is psychic and sees everything before it happens. Nice try, but needless to say I won't be checking out any of the other books in this series.
