Just barely squeezing into three stars. A very generic military science-fiction novel that seems to have no soul, nothing interesting to say and a main character with all the depth of a piece of cardboard.
The story feels like your really basic video game / late night improvised RPG scenario where everything is second-hand. There's a lot of detail but it doesn't cohere into a whole.

It's written competently enough, and the last part changes gears completely, ending the book a sequel hook more blatant than seen in ages. And yet, I find myself kind of interested to see what might happen next.
