Empire by Orson Scott Card. The beginning is kinda decent, but then it turns into hovercrafts and power mech suits that nobody had ever seen before, and then the dumb keeps coming.

Doesn't it begin with :argh:"The liberals" Killing the president?

It is great pulp fiction, with fascinating characters and a surprisingly strong moral centre. Abercrombie's later works have only confirmed this.

I felt like the ending just really hosed it all up. Also I felt like there was a lot of really unnecessary violence against women that was portrayed as "For the greater good"

If there is any sexual interaction between a human and a non human it is a bad book. Because the author did not really want to write a book they just wanted a way to publish their furry porn.

I'm proud of them for finally taking the Star Wars EU out back and shooting it in the head. They should have done it a long time ago and from what it sound like they are just doing that so that the new EU can come and poo poo on the floor, roll around in the poo poo and then bite a few of the kids. One step forward, One step into the massive pile of Nerd-jizz money to be made.
