Too many characters and subplots, and some very disjointed storytelling, but also some interesting characters and plot developments, so I had kind of a mixed reaction to the book.
Jack McBryde and Herlander Simoe were two of the more interesting characters, and their parts of the story were some of the best. It was also fun to have Zilwicki and Cachat back in action.
Glad to be returning to the main Honorverse storyline in the next book.
