In the fifteenth book in the series, the peace of the Aurous base is shattered. Years of planning come together when Steven and Charlie become targets for assassination. The base is locked down as a hunt for a certain piece of technology takes place. Stranded tourists and a murder put a serious strain on the authorities, with investigators from the human, Modloch and federal authorities. Himari comes into her own when she becomes a Modloch citizen and is introduced to the computer system on Charlie’s island. The hunt for the culprits is on and in the end, will they face an emperor's wrath?
The concept of "The Establishment" is nothing new and in this story, someone does something about it, but so many storylines interfere with this main thread, that it takes forever to get there and then it's done in a chapter One of my biggest gripes about the series is it's more about Charlie than Steven, however this time round Steven does feature a lot more and the story feels more balanced as a result The Emperor still sticks his oar on occasion and for once actually seems to have others interests at heart, not just his own It's a good story, keeps the whole series moving along nicely, looking forward to the next
This is 1 of the best series I've ever read If you haven't started at the beginning you need to It's a great read I can only hope that he keeps writing I will keep reading
