A review by suzannekm
A Just Determination by Jack Campbell, John G. Hemry

2.0

I was enthusiastic about this series even though I'm not always a fan of space opera. JAG in SPAAAACE! The world building is excellent and the plot is intriguing. Characters have a lot of potential. Unfortunately, the writing is pretty horrible. I was especially disturbed at the inner monologues... nobody actually talks like that to themselves and in dialogue heavy scenes it was sometimes difficult to tell which character was speaking. The exposition was heavy handed as well. My first real space opera is the far superior Honor Harrington by Weber. I may give the series one more book to improve because I do like the foundation, but…
