the 3rd book to this i liked with it now getting into with dealing with other alien races the fights get more epic an a alster has to learn quick on how to deal with the political systems of other aliens with out screwing up. all thought there are points were i wonder about alsters thinking when he takes land from other humans by mistake then call them greedy for asking him why he did what he did but both parties do get over there anger an solve the problem an work things out things. only negative thing i saw in the book that there were some political type things brought up in the book that are happening now in are real world that i am not sure if the author is trying to change people minds on how they think about these political things or if they just added them to make it seem more realistic.
