You can really visualize the depictions of 3 dementional space battles, along with multi-world politics extrapolated from the current status quo

It has the breadth and depth of the old pulp Space Opera with the tight detailed writing. Lts of action with well developed Characters a nd a well developed plot

Ok, that is a bit unfair to Mr. Lumpkin, but it gives you an impression of the sort of story you are going to get. In general, it is a real page turner, with lots of action and a technically and scientifically plausible future where the great powers of the Earth clash in an interstellar war.
What separates Mr. Lumpkin's writing from David Weber and Tom Clancy is that most of the characters have a little depth to them, and characters can fundamentally disagree about important issues and still be generally on the same side. Also the good guys are not the only competent people in the Universe
Overall, this is a great read, and a great deal of fun. It took me three days to read, which is pretty good considering how little time I get to read with a two year old in the house.
