Not as well put-together as Hunting Party. 3 Stars.

Sporting Chance was good, but not great. I am not certain if it is an artifact of 90s sci-fi, but the story seemed to frequently change tracks without warning, making for a somewhat confusing read. The book was fast-paced, which can be exciting; however, it was a little too fast-paced, creating undeveloped areas.

The ending felt very rushed as well, with many loose threads to pick up. If different plot points were given the chance to breathe and develop, and if the ending wrapped up the story, I could see this easily being an excellent duology of its own, instead of an adequate individual book. However, I still am looking forward to the next book in the series.

Ultimately, it’s okay.
