This entire entry in the book series was predictable

Overall It was enjoyable

I’ve noticed over this authors career in his later books he tends to insert little SJW Powerpoints
The popes a woman
The senator from earth is a token black man
The Mail general that screws up is replaced by a woman most of the warship captains are women

It’s so ham handed sometimes it’s almost laughable like an editor is going back and doing it after the fact
If it’s the author he should stop doing it if it’s the editor then they should stop doing it

If I want to hear political message i’ll go watch CNN or Fox News
