The story was descent enough and Mark Boyett yet again does a great job but the mai. Reason why this gets such a low rating to me was because the author had the Gulls to say and I quote “Canada has no culture”. Is untrue and utterly disrespectful and maybe the author should spend more time researching our culture because unlike what he says we have culture. And less time on things that aren’t true.

The Author hates Canada

Mark Boyett does a great performance. However, for some reason, Scott Bartlett decides to take some shots at Canada in Chapter 9 of the second part (Rifleman). He says, Canadians are "unlike a lot of older cultures which had enjoyed a revival when they went to space, Canadian culture hadn't fared so well.,,, Canada, as it turned out, had very little, so any Canadians Po had met... had mostly seemed like bland, blank slates to him. Everyone every thought themselves as having no accent, but Canadians really didn't seem to have much of one. Po had read an article once that had described them as true children of humanity's system-wide diaspora, lacking identity, lacking culture, lacking anything that makes them unique."

Other than that, the Catholic bits were over-the-top, and the book read like a very generic military procedural. I guess, kind of lacking identity or anything that makes it unique. I'm glad I got the book on sale, and won't waste a credit on what's likely a bland, blank slate with little culture that's the second book - or anything else that Scott Bartlett writes.
