Great series! Luv following these family members, one per book (so far), move through the confines of this Liaden Universe. Each book easily 'stands alone', and doesn't seem to really make a great deal of difference which order these are read. I've read "Conflict of Honor" as well as this one, and have two more on my TBR shelf, as well as more on my wishList...YES, enjoyable 'reads', both of them, thus far.
