Bridgehead

"Bridgehead" (David Drake) - I was unpleasantly surprised by this book.  I expect a lot more from Drake, and this was not up to his usual standard.  He took an unusual idea (FTL via some sort of row and column based system), and wrapped it up in a lot of mystery and drama (which are not his strong suit).  The combat was a fairly minor part of the book, and always one-sided.
