This is not so much about "Imperial Bounty" is as it as about Dietz as a writer. I am completely shocked that his writings don't have any reviews. At least that's the case for some of the titles i've seen. Anyway my point is that i have grabbed up every non star wars book that the man has read and just love his writing. I was not aware that he is writing about star wars, but i guess i know what i'm gonna be reading in the upcoming months. My science fiction writers are Simmons, W. Michael Gear, James Halperin, Niven, Pournelle, Drake, and Poul Anderson. Dietz is right up there with the best of them!

I wish William Dietz would write more of this type of book, because I think they'll outlast his heavy duty books that go on and on. Bodyguard, Drifter's War, the McCade books etc. are books I will reread for a long time. More please, Mr. Dietz.

I just recently discovered Dietz and his Sam McCade series. The characters are real enough, Sam McCade is well fleshed out and developing, and I'm a big fan of space opera Science Fiction and this is an excellent example. Some of the details surprise me - little mistakes the characters make and such - which show Dietz's attention to detail.

Definitely an excellent read.

After two long years Prince Alexander's disappearance seems like ancient history. But for Princess Claudia, it's the chance of a lifetime. She's using her brother's absence as an excuse to seize power and bring humanity to the brink of war with the Il Ronn - an all or nothing conflict which would destroy the Empire. The answer is clear. Only Prince Alexander can stop Claudia's plans, and McCade, the best bounty hunter in the galaxy, has only three months to find him. But Princess Claudia controls the Imperial Fleet and will stop at nothing to keep McCade from bringing in his IMPERIAL BOUNTY.
