Still, without their Great See’er, they are no longer the friendly ally of the past. On the other side of the galaxy, the Dvorkan Empire has its own problems and was never really the most reliable of allies. Faced with increased Mistraan aggression, Admiral Jon Pike needs to go on the offensive before the forces of the Maeficus become too powerful.

Pressure on the author to complete this book &, of course, pressure on the characters of the narrative. Let's start with the author. Chapter 2 recap contains inaccuracies & inconsistencies with repetitive dialogue in that there are full passages identical to previous books. While this is disappointing, it just seems to suggest that the author was having problems getting started with this volume. Post Chapter 3, the book starts to flow again. Back to the intrigue, action & imagination. Everyone comes under pressure in some way. Ultimately, there really is just the one source. The rinse & repeat just takes on a larger form. The threat growing existentially. The denouement best come with Book 15 as Pike may have outlived my interest if I have to wade through more than 2 more books of his exciting & action-packed, yet bumbling path. Still. You can not deny the overriding appeal of this saga.
It is ming boggling to try and comprehend the scale in this galaxy this book has told us about. Really. Makes the mind stretch just trying to comprehend it. Mine hurts !
Absolutely brilliant sci-fi action. Great characters with realistic situations and lots of action. When you're winning always expect the counter punch. I look forward to the next one.
