The Indigo Reports #3
Worlds Beyond
Peace is balanced upon a knife edge…
With the incomparable advantage of personal bridge forges and the elusive flying city, Demos, Bellona and her Ledanians have contained their rabid enemies, the Alliance, for more than a decade, preventing them from swallowing whole the hundreds of worlds who look to Bellona to preserve their freedom and peace. If the Alliance’s relentless ambition to find a decisive advantage is realized, the delicate balance Bellona maintains would be destroyed, and the free worlds vulnerable.
Rumours emerge from the Alliance-annexed states of a new type of bridge forge which might just be the tool the Alliance needs to defeat her…
Worlds Beyond is the final book in the Indigo Reports space opera science fiction series by award-winning SF author Tracy Cooper-Posey.

Praise for the Indigo Reports
Tracy makes the world come alive and by the time you get to the end of the story you’re sitting on the edge.
An exciting glimpse of what's to come by this author in the SciFi genre.
True SciFi is a magnificent world to enter and this is just the beginning of what I know will be a great series.
Hits all the things that I love about Sci-fi.
So much story!! So much promise!! This will keep my inner nerd happy.
Keeping close tabs on this new Sci-fi series.
I am a big fan of Tracy Cooper-Posey’s because I thoroughly enjoy the intrigue she generates with her fictional-but-believable worlds and unpredictable plots
This little window into the world of SciFi did not disappoint me, in fact, I think I'm addicted!!

An ending to an amazing series of heroines and heroes, both human and android. Of saving a world despite politics and war from an enemy that will stop at nothing to win. A world that survives with the help of androids more human than humans. I must say that the final book in this sci-fi saga was worth the wait. Now I want to go back and read from the first sentence in the first book to the last sentence in this he last book. To cheer Bellona and her ever-faithful android Sang, both which have grown and learned to give their all. I'll be awed by the future the author has given us, all over again.

A pleasingly complex world that sadly overshadows character development. I was on the outside looking in at small snippets of multiple characters reacting to space spanning intrigue.
Worth reading, especially as the end to this series, but I will go elsewhere for characters to love.

Not a fan of time jumps honestly, but I do think it was required for this series

A fine ending to a fantastic series. All the threads are woven together. Will there be more stories in this universe? I hope so. As always, the characters and world building are stellar and the author gives you something to think about after reading. I read an ARC of this book and this is my voluntary review.

This story of a family at the heart of a revolution was ambitious in its undertaking, but Cooper kept a good handle on all the various threads and tied them together neatly at the end while still leaving a few teasers for potential future story lines in this universe.
The characters took second stage to the story in this installment. The previous book felt quite character driven and the fingerprint of various individuals could be clearly seen in events whose repercussions rippled across known civilization. In this book, it seemed that the events themselves had hit a critical mass and were playing themselves out to their inevitable conclusion regardless of the desires of their erstwhile creators and architects. A couple characters even made comments to that effect, noting that the shape was known, predicted, it was the details that could not be seen.
This is the conclusion of a series and builds in the previous books and novellas. Read them first, and the go back and read the beginning after finishing and you will look at it in a different way. This is space opera at its best, escapist, enjoyable reads that make you look at your wold just a little bit differently.

Epic! I thoroughly enjoyed this outstanding space drama! I highly recommend this story and am delighted to report it's a satisfying and epic finish to the whole series. So many intrigues and machinations which were manipulated and experienced by characters who seem so real and yet larger than life (human or android and all in-between!). All this action and intrigue is set in a galaxy so different to what we know...the escape was real and I was completely captivated by the whole story (good luck if you can put this book down, I had to read it in one sitting!). I'll be thinking about these characters and the story long after reading it...I can see it being a fantastic book (and series) to re-read so that I can soak up more of the nuances and enjoy the bumpy ride through space all over again!
Definitely a series you need to read in order with no cliffhangers between books but each novel adds more depth and understanding to some amazing characters I wanted to know more about.

The next book in The Indigo Reports series is “Worlds Beyond.” I was hooked from the very beginning drawn into the discovery, wanting to know more about the Demosthenes. Even though the book starts off with the archeological dig you also read about what happens in the past on the ship. You get not only the present but the past as well. The amount of detail, the imagery that Tracy Cooper-Posey adds to the story just adds to the depth. Especially with the politics on the Demosthenes, the trades, the tariffs and the discussions between governors. Overall I really enjoyed reading this book that I highly recommend this book.
I was given an advanced reader copy of this book for my honest review.

**** SPOILER ALERT ****
In "Worlds Beyond" Cooper delivers a somber end to the "Indigo Reports" series.
The author, as usual, does a superlative job of world building and character development. Sang's in particular.
I highly recommend this book.
Q: If you knew the price of Freedom for the entire universe was the sacrifice of not only your home, but your very life, would you pay the price?
A: Read this book and find out Bellona's answer.
In the interest of transparency: I was given a free review copy of this book and I am voluntarily sharing this review.
It is my own honest opinion.

High-Tech Future World – Exquisite Story!!
This author knows how to tell a story, regardless of whether we are going back in history or forward in time. At a time when worlds are at stake and politics are key; Relationships and loyalties are all at risk. The enemy has a weapon which is a city-killer.
Just a hint to peak your interest, as there is no way to give just a little away in this compelling read!

Stunning Conclusion!!
A universe at war. Factions who need to be strong to protect the weak; but then are they as “bad” as the original aggressors? A fascinating saga of survival, relationships, and the power of perception. Very relevant in today’s world.
Strength of cause and putting yourself “all in” for what you believe is right. Brilliant!

This series is amazing and this book is no different. I loved the pace and the story itself. I loved the characters and where they end up. I liked the mix of space opera, mystery, action and science fiction. It hooks you from the beginning and kept me reading until the end to see what Bellona and her crew end up doing in the end. I loved seeing everyone again. I love this series.

This is epic science fiction at its finest. Until this book I had forgotten just how much I love good science fiction and Tracy’s book is not just good, its exceptional.
Tracy draws you in from the very beginning and continues to enthrall through to the conclusion.

I really liked this sci-fi read. The story is fast-paced with loads of drama and it really takes you on a journey to another place and time. Great characters with an entertaining story. A good read.

Wow! This tale is darker and more emotional than the first two — which only makes it even more realistic. Terrific writing and characters you love. Bravo!
