Age of Expansion: Precious Galaxy #4
Obliteration
A new evil lurks in the darkness.
The crew is relieved by Dejoure’s perplexing ability to soothe the monster, but that won’t keep them safe for long.
Precious Galaxy Coffee Company is under constant attack.
Someone wants to take out the biggest giant in the galaxy.
The team goes after the other databases only to learn something that changes everything.
Vance is always one step ahead of them.
Not all hope is lost. Hatch brings back a key crew member; someone who can help them defeat Monstre Corp.
The last act of this heart-pounding series delivers a ton of action as Bailey and Lewis rush to save the crew before it’s too late. Everyone’s freedom is at stake. Vance would rather go down in a blaze, taking everything with him, then be defeated.
Will they find the missing crew? Or will Monstre Corp end them all?
Experience this exciting mystery sci-fi saga and the latest addition to the expanded Kurtherian Gambit Universe. If you’re a fan of Dark Matter, Altered Carbon, or Star Wars, you’ll love this riveting new space opera.

What a finale to this wonderful series!
Obliteration really IS the right title for this book but, just like everything else she's written, Sarah really did us all such a favour in writing this because, even reading this book, and knowing that it's the last of this series: I WANT MORE!
I want more from these great characters. I want more plots, and more villains for them to fight, and win over. I want to know what happens next with every single character belonging to the Ghost Squadron - and, please, Sarah, can you write these books ASAP? Lol
I'm not going to tell you what happened, in this last story, because I think you'd be crazy not to read it yourself. After all, we each look at books with our own, very unique, perspective, seeing things in books, in so many different ways than others do.
But, seriously, do go and grab this whole series to read right now! If you haven't read the original series, Ghost Squadron, then grab that first, and read it - 'though, to be fair, you can read this series, Precious Galaxy, on it's own, too!
I'm so loving Sarah Noffke's works.
I have actually bought most of her other books, too, but want to finish reading everything from TKU first, before going back to each author, and reading everything else they've written - which means that, as I'm about three quarters of the way through all the different series, it'll probably be a few more weeks before finishing them all - and then I'll have a bazillion other books by this wonderful stable of writers to read!
How awesome is that? 😁

Really enjoyed this series
This series has been great and it was a great idea to have the majority of ghost squadron.disappear to then have new characters to find them and rescue the crew.
I really liked precious coffee particularly Dave and I think his AN should get a body.
Perhaps when ghost squadron is revisited with both old and new characters. It will be interesting to see what happens with the non federation gate.
Anyway I've lots of questions o what's happens with Precious Galaxy and will it integrate with the federation perhaps this will be answered in another series if not ghost squadron

Perfect ending
Obviously, we, the loyal fans, had a strong suspicion as to how this would end. However, the endings that matter were the completion of several character arcs.
They were each handled extremely well and reminded us that the heart of each of the books in the KGU is the humanity of the characters, human or not. That, specifically, is why i have become such a loyal reader and write these reviews. The humanity is what binds us all together, it is the reason that we accomplish most of the most amazing things in the most difficult of circumstances.

Grand Conclusion!
The ending brought tears to my eyes. Happy tears. Reading Pip and Julianne's reunion was everything I could have wanted. One of my favorite things in the book shows exactly how nerdy I am. I was a professional math major so the math quotes made me laugh out loud. I even wrote them down and am going to create a poster. Thank you to Sarah and Michael once again for giving us a great series. Read away folks, you won't be disappointed.

An ending
A wonderfully happy ending after a LOT of action, suspense, and some teary moments (or is that just me being so emotional?). Sarah has written another masterpiece. I was sad to learn this is the final book in the Precious Galaxy arc, but hope to see more of the crew in future Ghost Squadron books. There's a lot of potential for amazing stories, and I want to see more cars!

Perfect ending
This book was the perfect ending for the series. There was lots of action, humor and emotion in it. The book pulled all the storylines together and resolved all the issues. I will miss this series, but look forward to more stories from Michael Anderle and Sarah Noffke.

The last book in this series
How can it be that the Precious Galaxy is ending? Sarah writes a story that makes you see each and every scene in your minds eye like a movie. You get to know and either love or hate as you explore their world. The characters are larger than life, yet you can see your self in them. Damn good book, want to see more.

Great book!
But I got questions. This is, supposedly the end of this series? But what really happened to Solomon Vance? No body, not over! He’s a mutant super villain after all.
I’ll have to reread the Ren series. Lewis is like Ren?? I dunno.
Anyways, great writing as always from two great writers!

Back together
They have found the rest of the databases and Vance. He has started to upload to himself but they stole the diamond but he still uploaded some new talents. Tranquil (aka the Monster) finally ends him. Hatch and his assistants start printing them. You will have to read to see what happens!!

10 Stars!!!
A resounding great ending to the series, however, more with the entire squadron including the newcomers would be great.
A definite must read series that sucks you in to the very end. Loads of action, plot twists and laugh out loud moments to keep the reader entertained. 10 stars!!

Awesome!
So much action packed into this book, that it rarely, if ever, slows down at all.
It will great, to see where the combined characters go from here, and how they interact.

All good things come to an end.
Oh no the last ghost squadron(for awhile hopefully)
Loved this series and I'm in love with pips pmiping apparel. Best one that I liked was, be yourself unless you are Batman then be Batman.
Great books, great action and a perfect ending.😀

Really great story
Loved it. So glad to finally get everyone back and have the villains get their due. So happy that Hatch has opened up, so maybe he can find true happiness.

A fun, standalone mini series
I really enjoyed this road trip into the Precious Galaxy. A fun story with some new and some old characters. Well worth a read.
