I read and enjoyed the first book in this series, Mutineer, a number of years ago. I remembered it as a fun, fast paced novel with engaging characters and some interesting sci-fi elements. After reading Deserter, I wonder if they were truly written by the same author. After a somewhat strong start, this book was quickly bogged down in a morass of meaningless, mundane verbal exchanges between the main character and various supporting cast members and did not pick up speed again until the last 30 pages or so. Kris' seemingly endless bemoaning of her love life (or lack of it) coupled with an annoying plot element involving her very personal computer and an overall weak plot line made it difficult to get through.
