A review by gs_jennsen
The Praxis by Walter Jon Williams
4.0
At times it felt a little like I was reading a regency romance instead of a space opera, what with all the lords and ladies and patrons and frilly tailored attire.
But Gareth Martinez is an instinctively likeable protagonist (sometimes in spite of himself), and once we finally got to space for real (nearly 2/3 of the way through the book), the story pivoted nicely toward space opera, with compelling and unique space battles and clever conflicts. I plan to read Book 2.
