Enjoyed it even if a bit Mary Sue

Jan Childers has been compared to both Cordelia Naismith and Honor Harington in reviews, which is where I first heard of this series. I don't agree. Author Richard Weyand spans his protagonist's lifetime in two books where both Bujold and Weber would have given us ten or fifteen. Where both Naismith and Harrington suffered profound personal and professional loss, the Jan Childers we are shown here rarely, if ever, has anything go wrong.
Yet it is still an enjoyable tale.
