Intriguing Galactic Space story
Authors weave a big story with some not subtle commentary about this world.
BUT, earth is not alone in corruption:
Politics. Commerce. Greed and idiocy! 💩. Spread across the Galaxy. 👽👾🤖
Not particularly dystopian, no graphic sex (a few hints tho) and no graphic violence.
The ending didn't suggest a 'series' but you never know!
Kinda similar to their book "The Commander" - one of my favorites!

Unique story in all my SF reading
I seldom leave reviews but this is truly a unique and engaging story. In a nutshell, current Earth meets very advanced human progenitors. I found myself trying to guess what was going to happen next and failed in the process. Will definitely be getting another of their novels. Bob

December 7, 2025Good read. Finally a single book story.
I have gotten so burned out by stories that continue book after book after book. This was a welcome change. I needed a break from all the space opera series. I will be checking to see what else C J Williams has to offer.

Excellent
Kept me reading through the first two thrids... The rest was a scanner. Oh well, I'll be moving on. I need books that don't need to be scanned just to get to the end. 🙂
