A Kingdom in Twilight takes a shift from the exploration stories of the last couple of books, to focus more on a human conspiracy against the Starmen. Framed for murder, they find themselves on the run from a mysterious and deadly adversary which is likely linked to the Xenobots. Things have never felt more grim as these heroes are painted as villains.
This is not to say that there is no exploration in this book. I enjoyed the big revelation early in the book which will have a big impact on the mythology of the Starman Saga.
This book, and the next book, were originally published as one volume, which means this one ends with what I found to be a very effective cliffhanger. It feels like a two-parter on an old TV Show.
I'm excited to see the continuation of all that this book has set up.
