This is a quote of Harga (Baron Vakka's closest friend and Jukaga's tutor) from Action Stations, CHAPTER FIVE. Context:
Harga smiled. "We've been over that before, my friend. It was all in your ship's computers anyhow, though I dare say no one in the Imperial family gives a good damn about it. But Jukaga, here, might make a difference someday."
"A difference in defeating us?" Abram asked. "Know your friends, but know your enemies better."
"Maybe knowing your enemy might one day result in saving him and you."
"I'll think about that," Abram replied, and without any ceremonial bow the human turned and walked away.
This sentence seems to echo the end of Fleet Action. But is there more to it than that? For example, Melek's "Perhaps the only hope for either of our races is to face the future together" (Heart of the Tiger, CHAPTER XXX)?
And I have some other words. Recently, I finally purchased End Run. After gaining some understanding of all the three books (and paying a weekend spare time to read lots of posts here... wow, some of the posts are almost twenty years old), I have some new insights into the "Baron Jukaga trilogy" and some more questions in the following posts.
P.S. Sorry, I was reading and combing through the clues late, so the writing may have been a bit messy. After all, my knowledge of the series is still very limited, so please criticize and point out the errors in my extrapolation.
