"Space opera" isn't quite the right designation for City of Diamond. Though there's no shortage of intrigue, counterplot and deception aboard the giant colony vessel that gives the book its title, there's also a faintly domestic quality usually missing from the wide-roving spectacle of the typical space opera. Nor are space operas usually possessed of characters as complex and introspective as show more some of those with whom pseudonymous author Jane Emerson populates this tale. show less
