Book 20 or so in the space opera about the Princess of Wardhaven who makes her way up the military ladder defeating all her foes and winnng the admiration of her enemies, with her chief bodyguard and romantic interest at her side.
In this book the Iteeche Empire continues to prove that feudalism isn't competitive against the socialist democratic economies of Human space, although this is entirely expressed in military terms. Then there is an interminable battle that clearly required spreadsheets to organize, and certainly requires spreadsheets to understand, and I didn't build a spreadsheet so I got lost several times.
The politicking is better than the warfighting, I guess.
