Another installment of Frontlines finished... and I'll be waiting, and will be picking up, the next one.

I likes these books. It feels like they are unusual in the military SF flora. I don't know if it's the author's background as a cold war, Western European, conscript soldier rather than the US military, that causes the difference? (I myself was a Western European cold war era conscript a looong time ago).

And I'm still curious about the lankies: how can they be so big and function? Where does their energy come from? Especially since they don't show up on infrared?
