Colonel

I enjoyed reading the series. It did not draw me in as much as the "Hope" series of David Feintuch, but I did enjoy the action and decisions of Lon Nolan. My greatest regret is that I was looking forward to General. I assumed since the General does not go out on contract, that the planet Dirigent would be attacked. Since Lon would be head of the military and state he would have to direct planetary resources as well as consider bringing men back already on contract. I am not sure why Mr. Shelly decided to end with Colonel.
