The sequel to Through the Looking Glass. This volume introduces several new characters and the SSN Nebraska converted to space capability. The ship leaves earth with a crew, a science contingent, their security force and a detachment of Force Recon ( read Space Grunts). The character development is quite good while the plot follows the tried and true "Star Trek or Explorer" theme. Think shake down cruise with new planets and new threats. More than enough beasties and a few "intelligent" apecies along the way. It was a good deal of fun with the occasional Quantum Physics thrown in.
