Imperium Galactic #6
Thorn
Thorn’s been dead for a thousand years.
But for someone who can travel time, when you are is relative.
He’s lived a long life, but is that all there is?
He passed on Kali’s mantle to Bud, but does that mean the highers are done with him?
All he wants is to join his wife in death, and find out if there really is an afterlife together.
But since when has anything gone the way anyone wanted where highers are concerned?
And on the eve of his death, just what could any of them want of him now?
One thing is for sure though.
He is, has been, and always will be,
Thorn.

(New info added at the bottom, in response to feedback and reviews.)
Timothy Ellis lives on the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia; where he constantly battles with his cat for possession of his desk chair, Daleks do guard duty, and he keeps his sonic screwdriver next to his lightsaber and wand. Now there is a female Doctor Who, he eagerly awaits the sound of the Tardis materializing in his house.
He has spent his life reading and watching science fiction and fantasy, and has been playing Space Genre computer games since he used to be smuggled in to play the original text Star Trek game on a university mainframe, long before the PC or Apple appeared. Since 2004, he's written game guides for the Egosoft X Universe series, culminating in two versions of the X3 Handbook. He has also designed major mods for the various games, and dozens of mini mods.
He has been a farm worker, Antique Dealer, Computer Programmer, Systems Analyst, Operations Manager of a small retail chain, and Retail Store Owner. He is now a full time author, who still does Spiritual Healer and helper work.
After leaving behind the corporate and business worlds, he was opened to his Spiritual gifts. Now a Feng Shui Master, Feng Shui led him to Buddhism, Karma, the Tao, and back to western spiritualism. Since 2006 he has been writing spiritual articles and helping people via spiritual forums and Facebook Groups. His spiritual books include "Personal Healing Using Basic Meditation", "Life Harmony, Feng Shui in Plain English", '101 Tips for the John of God Brazil Experience', and "The Wisdom of the Ages is available for the price of asking a question" series of 8 books. His own spiritual healing led him to writing novels.
His first novel, 'Hero at Large', spawning the long running 'The Hunter Imperium' universe, brings together his love of the space genre, magic, spirituality, and cats. Now 10 series long, the universe covers 3 galaxies, 4100 years, and as at Dragon Imperative, 62 Novels, 7 shorts, and 2 companion books. There are 7 main entrance points across 10 series: Hero at Large, Admiral of Gaia, Yesterday's Spacemage, Crossover, Midshipman Spacemage, Old Magic, and Dragon Rider. Alternate entrance points if you don't need backstory first, are Adrift and Mage King, although Dragon Rider has 3 books before it about the dragons.
If you wish to be kept up to date with new releases and information in The Hunter Legacy Universe series, subscribe here: http://eepurl.com/bqMgVz, and follow on Amazon, Goodreads, or BookBub.
The fastest way to find out about a new release is my Facebook group/page, which get advance warning about 2-4 days before release, and again when the book is uploaded to Kindle; and my email list which goes out as soon as I have an Amazon page for the new book. Bookbub will let you know about 3-4 days after I remember to tell them.
I normally will release in advance of the specified release date whenever possible, so if you are a Kindle Unlimited reader, you will want another method to be notified of the actual release date, so you can read on day 1.

Grand Mage Judge Thorn is back baby!
When a higher up calls on you, you better be ready to do some amazing stuff…
Grand Mage Judge Thorn has shrugged off the old titles and is now a simple man (but with tons of power) trying to escape the old ways and the Imperium… can he succeed? Well, read on dear reader and find out in this story of Thorn.

So Many Twists and Turns
Those darn Higher-ups. Always keeping things hopping. I don't want to spoil anything, so I'll just say I'm glad she's doing better and finding her own path. I'm glad Thorn and Tasha get more time. Love them all. Keep them coming please.

Good
This was a very well written book. I personally thought that it jumped around a bit too much and finished too abruptly. Too many loose threads. I love this world and will continue to read each new book that comes out.

This links a lot of the stories together. Thorn is a great character like most of them in this universe. Hope to see a continuation of this arc soon.

Good setup
Huge station network begats distant anonymity for power users, eh? Okay, so the play off known conflicts with new tech and characters has contributed to reading the sequel.

Not much happening
The book seems to be about tying up loose ends, without much happening. While this is good for the series, it makes for a pretty boring book.
