Query: On leaving the main character.

A previous review wrote that this was not some of Elizabeth Moon's best work because she left the main character to talk about other characters that were not so likable. I understand the reviewers frustration, but I do not agree. Moon's books are not all written from a single character's point of view. Like any good author she understands that there is more than one side to any story. Besides, she goes on to develop these characters in other novels in the series and they grow and change, even as the jerks in the real world can. I feel this makes this book and this series more like real life and much more interesting.
