The plot moves along well and the characters are tolerable. The writing is somewhat flat and clumsy. Science is disastrous. I can accept orc-like aliens who look and act human and conveniently speak English. It's like Star Trek. The authors' biology and physics are terrible. Haploid insects? Body sizes and strengths that ignore basic scaling laws and biophysics? Every technical detail collapses under the slightest consideration. The bad science overwhelmed everything else and ruined the book for me. Not recommended. 1/5 Stars.
