Iron Dragoons

I am armor.
I will not fail.
Pretty good start to a Gundam like universe, wherein instead of tanks, we have big tank robots(??).

I like science fiction that makes humanity the least among the interstellar races, then slowly build them up due to their perseverance and ingenuity plus their willingness to go to war.

Mr. Fox has a lot of books, but I like this one among the others, actually this is my first time reading his work, I chose this series because of mecha (hopefully) and the armor contingent, the armour contigent in any battle is the hammer(at least I think), they are deployed as a last resort, either to protect or act as a spearhead to breach any stalemated battleground(tales of WWII, panzer division, General Patton's mobile heavy units), and the story is quite exciting, a lot of stellar races, which are flying above my head, a lot of unknowns, but little by little, I hope to piece together the puzzle. Very, very good first book.

An interesting story that left me curious as to what would happen next... despite near constant disappointment with poor military tactics and culture. Editing and continuity issues abound. Societal memory doesn't change as fast as the author seems to think it does.

The book is basically Enders Game with mecha
