Star League Assassins Books 1-10: Complete Series Boxset
In the aftermath of the war between Star League and the Planetary Republic, the old regime’s borders continue to wither. Now down to a fraction of its previous holdings, the former tetrarchy is held together by Julian Thrall’s youngest “daughter,” Jade.
She rules with an iron fist under the tutelage of StarCen, the League’s primary AI. But Jade Thrall is no human. She is instead the most advanced android ever conceived, so sophisticated she is not even aware of her artificial nature.
What she does know are all the tricks of subterfuge and cruelty required of a ruthless dictator. Her greatest tool to claw back power and strengthen her hold on the realm?
Assassins.
Remington Rennison acquired Jade for StarCen shortly after the bot’s creation. Now on the Planetary Republic’s side, she is tasked by PLAIR to stop Jade at all costs. Along the way, her team discovers the founders sequestered StarCen’s original code, which can be used to reset the AI and possibly free millions from the yoke of tyranny.
To save the League and reset the code, Remington must find it first . . . and try to stay alive.

Side quests galore
Alternate universe, SF advanced technology, space opera, fantasy tech
Once you get past the idea that libertarian economics is what the author holds up as "the good guys" under the Planetary Alliance and the "bad guys" of the Star League are evil space commies, it's an entertaining series of books. A bit tiresome, though that only recent Republican presidents are mentioned at all, with all the historical revisionism one finds nowadays. Part of the revenge, no doubt, is making the capital of the Star League on Clarion be the city -- which also happens to be the state capital of California, and thus know how he feels about that place. Texas, however, gets high marks.
Whatever.
Despite the continuous jibes, plenty of adventure. Excellent editing.

Star League and the Planetary Republic are back in another series with new and a few old stars from the previous series. Jade is in charge and begins the story by solidifying her position and things get crazy from there. Lots of drama, intrigue, assassins everywhere, spies, missions ans secrets to be found. Kept me guessing and interested to see what would happen next. Both sides of the conflict cause chaos as the series progresses. Just a wild and fun read I enjoyed. Gotta watch out for those pesky AI as they cause trouble for all.

An ending?
Absolutely brilliant sci-fi fiction.
Great characters with realistic situations and lots of action.
I finally got to read the ending of this series and it was good.
I look forward to more from this author.

I'll start by saying I usually don't do reviews. I enjoyed this boxsets' storyline. I'll do my best not to give any spoilers.
The overall story picked up smoothly from the second boxset in this trilogy. The books flowed well from book to book. I found the characters to be well developed with protagonists and antagonists easy to follow. The planets were developed with detail that you understand the differences while allowing for the fact that if humanity survives long enough to reach the stars it will be looking for "Goldilocks" homes. The fact that both political systems were actually governed by A.I. was current and progressive as well (is that a spoiler?). I've always been a fan of the combat sci-fi genre and enjoyed the variety of combat equipment and techniques the author employed. Overall, I recommend this set and the previous two as well.

Good reaf
Keeps you in hanging on every chapter, trying to figure out what is going to happen next. Then they throw something in that you never expected. Which keeps you wanting to figure out what is going on, so you keep on reading.

(FYI I tend to only review one book per series, unless I want to change my scoring by 0.50 or more of a star. -- I tend not to read reviews until after I read a book, so I go in with an open mind.)
3.5*
3rd series set in the same universe. The series follow on from each other but you can read them out of order and still know what's going on.
Author continues to need better proofreaders, things like wrong names used are still happening.
Most annoying was the author forgot that he'd had 3 characters meet before in the Agents of Planetary Republic series. One of them saving the other's life, then the third person rescuing them both. But when they meet again at the end of book 7 they do so as strangers. Even if one of them was disguised, she should still have recognised the other couple. This mistake was not fixed in book 8. ---- Lost 1/4 star for that and I'm being generous.
First time read the author's work?: No
Will you be reading more?: Yes
Would you recommend?: Yes
------------
How I rate Stars: 5* = I loved (must read all I can find by the author)
4* = I really enjoyed (got to read all the series and try other books by the author).
3* = I enjoyed (I will continue to read the series)
or
3* = Good book just not my thing (I realised I don't like the genre or picked up a kids book to review in error.)
All of the above scores means I would recommend them!
-
2* = it was okay (I might give the next book in the series a try, to see if that was better IMHO.)
1* = Disliked
Note: adding these basic 'reviews' after finding out that some people see the stars differently than I do - hoping this clarifies how I feel about the book. :-)

this is yet another not quite safe for work series. the villains are not hesitant to use extreme violence against men, women, and children.
this series focuses more on various villians...and former villains. we do see a number of familiar characters from previous books.
the loose ends are pretty much tied off. the next series, picking up 20 years later, builds upon new characters with surprising guest appearances at times.
and you get to see a few "happily ever after" moments.

AI at its finest?
Over thirteen hundred pages of danger, intrigue, and adventure as two AIs play their humans in a galactic chess game—a great read.
