Elizabeth Moon???

im about halfway through Hunting Party and while it isnt the best book ive read, it passes the time quite nicely.Im just wondering how the rest of the serrano books are - and what the general feeling about the quality of her work and if it is worth reading the rest of the series.

I don't like her SF books allt that much, she's a bit uneven...
some good books, some not so good. If you're not to posh to
read fantasy however, her Paksenarrion series is one of my
favourite fantasy series.

I agree with aurora. The Deed of Paksenarrion was one of the best fantasy trilogies I've ever read. Her Sci/Fi is OK, but just OK. I've read the first four of the Serrano series, but could have stopped after two. They are all much of a muchness.

Elizabeth has also written a prequel or two to The Deed of Paksenarrion, but these didn't seem to have the energy of the original series. The three books in sequence of hers that I would recommend are:

Sheepfarmer's Daughter
Divided Allegiance
Oath of Gold
