Title: How did the publisher let this one get to print?
Review: The "Freedom" series kept my interest up through the third book. This fourth one falls off a cliff. Imagine a universe where a few tons of automotive supplies and food has a measurable impact on the reconstruction of a looted and devastated Earth. Imagine one where interstellar travel is so cheap that bird carcasses, bananas, and coffee beans are the prized trade items. Repetitious descriptions and dialog, boring 1-D characters, a chaotic plot, bad science and inconsistent technology, absurd scale effects, and a host of other flaws make this a painful book to push through to the end. You'll also find "exterior motives" and "one of the only". Sad. How did the publisher let this one get to print?
