Amazon Editorial Review
Visionary space industrialist Dan Randolph is dead-but his protégé, pilot Pancho Barnes, now sits on the board of his conglomerate. She has her work cut out for her. For Randolph's rival Martin Humphries still wants to control Astro and still wants to drive independent asteroid miners like Lars Fuchs out of business. Humphries wants revenge against Pancho-ands, most of all, he wants his old flame Amanda, who has become Lars Fuchs's wife.
In the struggle over the incalculable wealth of the Asteroid Belt, many will die-and many will achieve more than they ever dreamed was possible.

I have now ripped right thru books 1 & 2 of the Astroid Wars~~ Loved them! I also found #4 at the same time, but I'm missing #3 :( As I really want to know what happens with Amanda now (and Lars), I'll have to search Abe's Books, so I can finishthe series!!!
Releasing into Lane1088's SF bookbox.
This came to me in the scifi book box. I like the way Bova writes his stories, there seems to be such desperation sometimes in the situations but the characters find a way to rise above it. Since I've read this book, I will be releasing it in the wild during my upcoming trip.
