@Darapsa wow you're kind of lame :]
this is one of her more romantic books with scifi elements but the others in her series are far more what you would call hard scifi

I'm having some trouble posting this, but I'll give it another try ...
@DevataIndrani There's a nicely done related interview about the science in her books at the Intel Big Think site: bigthink.com/series/36?selecte

Nice interview! I liked how the interviewer was very knowledgeable about the book. I didn't know that "Diamond Star" was set 10 years before "Ruby Dice," that was a neat piece of information.
I've read TONS of hard science fiction. "Diamond Star" is only marginally that, the focus is indeed on the romance/people aspect, and Catherine Asaro can and does write hard science fiction very well. She's a fantastic writer.

I have read this book twice. I love it! I love all the books in this series. I read probably more books than anyone alive (really!). There are many authors whose books I love but miss Asaro's are my favorite! I can't wait for her next book! She is the absolute best! She has a special ability for the 'big' moments, the ones that give you goosebumps. She is just absolutely fantastic! Thank you so much for writing & please never quit.
