On the Razor's Edge (Spiral Arm #4) 
Meanwhile, Bridget ban has organized a posse—a pack of Hounds—to go in pursuit of her kidnapped daughter, despite knowing that Ravn Olafsdottr kidnapped the harper precisely to lure Bridget ban in her wake. The Hound, the harper, and the scarred man wind deeper into a web of deceit and treachery certain of only one thing: nothing, absolutely nothing, is what it seems to be.
I still don't know why I enjoy this series so much, but I do.This one had a lot more spy/intrigue/triple-crossing kinds of things.There's still way too many fights between people who are way too superhuman.The disguises and such are also superhumanly amazing but somehow that doesn't bother me as much.Maybe I just really love the world, the future, the attitudes about humanity's Terran origins. Or the poetic writing style? Or the plot and the way it alternates between slow seeking and fast-paced
What a wonderful space odessy! My absolute favorite

A pack of Hounds go deep into enemy space to rescue a harpist, and find themselves embroiled in a vicious coup attempt. There's an arid spot or two in the plot, but enough action to keep me turning the pages, particularly toward the end. Flynn's also a gifted stylist, like Jack Vance in that his prose is distinctive and recognizable---but a more entertaining storyteller, I think, with a lighter sense of humor and a fondness for clever little linguistic twists. Enjoyed this very much, and will

Real scifi, good story.

Debated whether this book was a three or a four, but finally went for three. It was a little dull in the early going and needlessly complicated during the climatic sequence. I didn't enjoy it as much as the rest of the series, but it was still an entertaining read.I still don't know why I enjoy this series so much, but I do.This one had a lot more spy/intrigue/triple-crossing kinds of things.There's still way too many fights between people who are way too superhuman.The disguises and such are also superhumanly amazing but somehow that doesn't bother me as much.Maybe I just really love the world, the future, the attitudes about humanity's Terran origins.
