Torin is everything you want in an action heroine." --Kliatt "Readers who enjoy military SF will love Tanya Huff's Valor's Choice. The level of detail is intricate...the blow-by-blow of combat is delivered with a focus on character as well as with lots of empathy and humor. Howlingly funny and very suspenseful." --Science Fiction Weekly "Fans of military science fiction will want to read The Better Part of Valor, a thriller that is every bit as exciting as Star Wars.
