The Better Part of Valor

Tanya Huff

Book 2 in the Valor sequence

Torin Kerr is tasked by the general that she nearly killed at the end of the last book, to lead a recon mission to investigate an unknown alien spaceship. This ship was accidentally found by a salvage operator and, upon viewing, becomes affectionately known as The Big Yellow. Once on board, there are no life signs, but the ship itself seems to be throwing up road blocks. In fact, Kerr's recon team is fighting a deck by deck battle to get to an escape hatch just to get off the ship. 

This book feels entirely episodic - unrelated to the prior other than the world that was created. Otherwise, only Kerr is a consistent character and we are introduced to an entire new cast otherwise. Quite fun. 

4 stars (out of 4)
