I read this book in one day, so I must have enjoyed it. It's simply good space opera. Although it is the first book in a series of five, I think you can stop with this book as the ending doesn't really have any cliff hangers. And that's what I plan to do.
I checked and it looks like there are two more of this series currently available on PBS.
