Review:

Soft­core space porn? Spacey ro­mance nov­el? Who know. Some un­holy mix of those com­po­nents.

Al­so, ev­ery time two ships en­ter a plan­e­tary sys­tem they will some­how end up 20km away from each oth­er AT MOST. And the rules for FTL tran­si­tion are mad­den­ing.

Ah, and it's a love let­ter to au­to­crat­ic gov­ern­ments.

If it was pub­lished in 1952, it would have been a bit cliched.
