The Dominion war machine was hurt with the destruction of its shipyard, and Kai Fletcher has given the galaxy a fighting chance. But no good deed goes unpunished.
The Dominion attacks the Dor’Anian planet of origin, and the Gensoon home world at great cost. The Regent, Corallus, thinks they have the Dominion on the ropes, and can’t spare anyone from the Armada to help Kai protect the next obvious and least defended target, Earth.
With the bad guys due any minute, and only two ships, Kai heads dirtside to convince the United States government to use all the alien tech they’ve been hiding from everyone since the 1940’s to save the world. That ends badly. Kai finds himself dealing with the threat alone, while being chased around his own home planet by just about every alphabet organization that he knew existed and a few he didn’t.
While on the run, he discovers a superweapon under development that could end the threat forever. All he has to do is steal it from under the noses of an ancient reptilian race that make the Laosorans look like choir boys. It might not be easy, but it’s the only shot they have to keep the Home Fires Burning, in the pulse-pounding conclusion to this rip-roaring galactic adventure!
A great ending to the series, and more of a return to the heist planning origins. But the ending, man, not cool. No spoilers but made me cry for a bit. I was happy for the epilogue to see how they're all turning out and I can envision them off doing galaxy space travel stuff
GREAT ending for a fun series! HOME FIRES BURNING has everything the previous volumes have and much more. Kai continues to blossom intellectually and emotionally while trying to save the world. I loved the ending (even with one big tearjerker) and would enjoy seeing what comes next.
