Moon, Elisabeth: Hunting Party

[OzScaper]

Has anyone read...

any of The Serrano Legacy??

I just read the first book: Hunting Party, and I have to say it was pretty good. It was exceptionally hard to put down. In case you're interested, this is how the blurb reads...


Heris Serrano was an officer born of a long line of officers. A life serving in the ranks of the Regular Space Service was all she had ever known or wanted - until a treacherous superior officer forced her to resign her commission. This was not just the end of her career path; it was the end of everything that gave her life meaning.

Heris finds employment as 'Captain' of an interstellar luxury yacht. Being a rich old woman's chauffeur isn't quite the same as captaining a Fleet cruiser, but nothing Heris will ever do again could compare with that. Or so she thinks. For all is not as it seems aboard the Sweet Delight ...

I thought it was good. If you read it enjoy.

What would it be like to be filthy rich?

How the super rich and powerful idle away their time and boredom.
This time, fox hunting. I now know more about chasing red tail across the countryside on top of a ton of hamburger than I ever wanted too.
And the machinations of the same super rich and powerful in their political twists and turns. A good match of Republicanasim and Absolute Monarchy.

The understated adventure part of the story tends to get lost behind the building of the social structure of super rich, princes and others where mere ruling is below them.

Serrano is almost archetypal hero, if female.

If you find Feinteich's Hope series too much in his endeavours to destroy himself, this could be a good alternative
