Border Wars

The detailed descriptions of the different factions and planets felt so vivid. I wonder if the author drew from real-world geopolitics or created everything from scratch.

The story shifted from action to diplomacy, which made me curious if that was necessary to develop the characters or if it affected the overall tension.

The science felt grounded but also advanced enough to keep the battles exciting. I’d love to know what influenced these choices—was it based on current tech or pure imagination.
