Pretty decent story, and I found myself liking it more than I thought I would. The protagonist's adventures do seem to be a little one-sided (he rarely makes a mistake) and I found the last 1/3 of the novel where they are protecting a city to be a bit plodding compared to the first 2/3 of the book. All in all, a good summer read but nothing that is going to win a Hugo or Nebula.
