Summary
America has ceded the heavens to the tyrants - and the renegades.
The US has abandoned its quest for the stars, and an old enemy has moved in to fill the void. The potential wealth of the universe is now in malevolent hands. Rebel billionaire Dan Randolph - possessor of the largest privately owned company in space - intends to weaken the stranglehold the new despotic masters of the solar system have on the lucrative ore industry. But when the mineral-rich asteroid he sets in orbit around the Earth is commandeered by the enemy, and his unarmed workers are slaughtered in cold blood, the course of Randolph’s life is changed forever. Now cataclysm is aimed at the exposed heart of America - a potential catastrophe that Randolph himself inadvertently set in motion. And the maverick entrepreneur must use his skills, cunning, and vast resources to strike out at his foes hard, fast, and with ruthless precision - and wear proudly the mantle that fate thrust upon him: space pirate!

Awkward misogyny and fractured plotline
This was ok... but often Dan Randolf comes across as a creep. Weirdest of all was the drastic change in a huge plot point from the from the first book in the series. This same shift in relationships seems to carry on in to book three so I can only assume Bova thought better of the story in the first book and chose to respin it.

Poor
Well narrated but the intrinsic misogyny and lack of overall plot means that this is just a soap opera from the 1970s with spaceships added in.
