201. K.D. Wentworth and Eric Flint, The Crucible of Empire.
I remember enjoying Course of Empire. Course of Empire is still entertaining. But I am become a Cranky Humourless Feminist who's not so hot on "What ThesePeople Aliens Need Is A Honky Fine Upstanding American" stories, in my advancing old age.
