Flattering the Flame: A Great Ship novelette by Robert ReedMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I think these short stories and novelettes within the Great Ship universe are pretty neat. The worldbuilding is vast, each story builds upon the rest even while self-contained, and all told, it feels like coming home.
Cocky species, cocky commanders, versus the Great Ship, forever plodding through space, picking up, dropping off, countless species. It's fascinating and rather funny. Aliens always think they're hot shit.
But this.. this is always about grand diplomacy. :)
Personal note:
If anyone reading my reviews might be interested in reading my own SF, I'm going to be open to DM requests. I think it's about time I get some eyes on them.
