Looks good. I'll read it after Priests of Mars by Graham McNiell, also a good read so far if you don't mind consulting a dictionary every so often as he uses some rather esoteric words for common actions. Then again, the ostentatious prose really traces how far out and legendary the galaxy is in M41.

There is a cute tech-priestess character who is somehow more human than machine, and likes to write with pen and paper instead of notepad.exe, so that's good too. I hope nothing bad happens to her, but given the way things usually work out in the far future, that's not likely.
