Fraternity is the last in the trilogy of novels: Liberty, Equality and Fraternity.
The concluding volume to an outstanding SF series on AI and humanity does not disappoint. The leading characters find destined fulfilment in appropriate ways, while the action coalesces in a tense final battle. Brilliant, well written and highly recommended series.
This is a great series! I quite like all the characters, including the ships. I had a bit of a struggle with this book in some parts with the transition between scenes. I had to double back in a few places thinking I’d missed something in getting to that specific point. I really enjoyed the excitement in the last part of the book but have to say I didn’t like how it ended (nothing wrong with it, just my own opinion). I’m hoping there is more to come in the series but I remain uncertain about Johnson’s character.
The entire series was a great story. I loved every page. The characters are well developed, the plot complex with multiple twists, and the action was well done. My only complaint, which is far too common with ebooks, is the editing is poor. There are numerous word usage errors , deletions, and misspellings. Some deletions may be due to British English idiomatic speech, but others are clearly erroneous.
And digested it in one long bite. This is one of the most deeply engaging series i have red in a very long time. Great Characters, internally and externally consistent concepts and storyline

The extended storyline of Alasdair Shaw's Fraternity, Book 5 of his Two Democracies: Revolution series, could almost be made into an undiscovered episode of the Star Wars franchise, so wide-ranging and exciting is its all-action galactic warfare and outstanding pantheon of charismatic (or cruel), characters.
