Book Description:
A new warrior comes into her own...
Kris Longknife is a daughter of privilege, born to money and power. Her father is the Prime Minister of her home planet, her mother the consummate politician's wife. She's been raised only to be beautiful and marry well. But the heritage of the military Longknifes courses through Kris's blood--and, against her parents' objections, she enlists in te marines.
She has a lot to live up to and a lot to prove in the long-running struggle between her powerful family, a highly defensive--and offensive--Earth, and the hundreds of warring colonies. Then an ill-conceived attack brings the war close to home, putting Kris's life on the line. Now she has only one choice: certain death on the front lines of rim space--or mutiny.

Idell H. (First in series. Military sf. Good characters, Interestin personal computer & maid with 12 floating suitcases.
First in series of 4, so far...I hope there will be more! Quoted from Elizabeth Moon," Kris Longknife is a gutzy, complex character with a twist of wry humor to leaven the kick-butt attitude. Face-paced, exciting, nicely detailed, with some innovative touches."
