... anyone know where I might be able to link to it more reliably?
I'm presuming copying the review and putting it up myself would be Bad. ("I'm fuzzy on this whole good/bad thing. What exactly do you mean by 'bad'?" "Try to imagine all life as you know it stopping instantaneously, and every molecule in your body being sued at the speed of light.")

Eric Flint and Ryk E. Spoor, Baen, $25 (320p) ISBN 9781439133606
The whole crew from Flint and Spoor’s Boundary are back. The perennially cash-strapped Ares Corporation, the only private agency in space, has teamed with the Interplanetary Research Institute, part of the United Nations, to exploit millennia-old alien technology in abandoned bases on Mars and Phobos. When they discover the existence of a third base on the asteroid Ceres, Ares seeks the help of the European Union and their ship Odin. An agreement is reached, but all is not what it seems; the EU has a hidden agenda, of which even the captain of the Odin is unaware. Tensions run high throughout the Ceres mission and finally come to a head causing things to spin out of control in ways no one could have predicted. This genial, fast-paced sci-fi espionage thriller is light in tone and hard on science and a fine choice for any collection. Despite a character list in the front, full enjoyment of this volume will depend on having already read the first. (June)
(The reviews appear on Amazon, so posting the full text yourself here isn't particularly problematic.)
