Frank Burns reviewed Investments by Walter Jon Williams
Review of 'Investments' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Apparently I missed one of these interstitial novellas from what I have called 'Horatio Hornblower in space'.
A very entertaining diversion this was. Whilst it involved the less interesting (imo) protagonist of the series to date, it was a sound tale of early colonial corruption with a nice whopping big astrophysical 'you what????' in the middle of it.
There was also a nice build up of a previously little used side character.
Again, I recommend this stuff as 'brain in neutral entertainment'.
