The Privilege of Peace

Yet another fun Torin Kerr adventure! Huff hits that mix that makes for a great military space opera: likable, relatable characters; intergalactic politicking; thrilling adventure; and a dark sense of humour that helps prevent the story from getting bogged down in the face of the violence that fills the characters' lives. I could easily read another twenty books like this, I like it that much.

The one downside to this book is that it's rumoured to be the last Torin novel - and it doesn't feel like that at all. The Big Yellow storyline gets resolved, obviously, but there's no sense of the ending of a story arc for Torin and the rest of Strike Team Alpha, which is a little disappointing.
