In this quite entrancing space adventure, we have Esmay Suiza as the main character. Now, those like myself who read previous books by this author will have met Esmay as a side character in Winning Colors (The Serrano Legacy, #3) where she was a key factor in the resolution of that adventure.

Rules of Engagement is the sequel to Once a Hero (1997), and shares some supporting characters with the Heris Serrano trilogy (1993-95). It's reasonably self-contained, though you'll enjoy it more if you've read some of the preceding books, all of which I've liked.
Esmay Suiza is a likeably...

This book is the grand conclusion to the Serrano Legacy by Elizabeth Moon. In my experience in most series, the first book is the best and the rest don't quite measure up. Not so with this series. Each book was a great read but this one, the last is definitely the best. In this one all the surviving characters...
