Publisher's Summary
In the third Shoal book, the nova war has begun to spread as the Emissaries force the Shoal into a desperate retreat. While Dakota goes in search of the entity responsible for creating the Maker caches, Corso, left in charge of a fleet of Magi ships, finds his authority crumbling in the face of politically-motivated sabotage. If any hope exists at all, it lies in an abandoned asteroid a thousand light-years away, and with Ty Whitecloud, the only man alive who can decipher messages left behind by an ancient starfaring race. Unfortunately Whitecloud is imprisoned aboard a coreship adrift in space, awaiting execution for war crimes. But if humanity has any hope of survival, Corso is going to have to find some way to keep him alive - and that's only if Dakota doesn't kill him first.

"Listen to Books 1 & 2 first"
What made the experience of listening to Empire of Light: Shoal, Book 3 the most enjoyable?The characters developed are real rich and deep but only after reading the first two books.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Empire of Light: Shoal, Book 3?When a certain character died, I was much like the main character, feeling nothing but hollowness.
Which scene was your favorite?Seeing Dakota activate the Meridian drones on the water world for the first time.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?Yes
Any additional comments?Its a good ending to the series of books with an opening for another series and I was left wanting more, to start a new adventure.
