Resumen del Editor

The fight for justice never ends - and as four-armed navino lawyer Claymore is about to learn, no one can be trusted to do what’s right. So, he decides to take on the organized criminals infiltrating his beloved government, even if he must do it alone.

After the abduction of his niece, Shaylor, Claymore begins investigating a shady organization known only as Prong Three. Following the trail of corruption and kidnapping, he discovers that his target is just one small arm of a major operation called Trident - and that taking it on means risking everything, including his own life and freedom. Behind it all is the one known as Master, whose grand plans lead to a full-on civil war between Trident and the official government. Both sides are working under pressure. If they can’t find a compromise soon, their chances of defeating the much more powerful alien force preparing to invade are slim.

Claymore must figure out how to stop Trident, but the criminals’ top leadership is already tracking him. Together with government agents - and any allies he can find - Claymore must disrupt their advanced technology while evading capture. If they find him, it will be too late.

An Alien Perry Mason Story

This is the third of a series following Negative Zero and Baktu (neither of which I have read). While the series revolves around the vigilante Tomek (aka Negative Zero), that character doesn’t have a lot to do in this installment, so this can easily be a stand alone read. At just under 7 hours of solid narration for 227 pages, this is a quick story and it moves fast, jumping years in the beginning to reach a surprising climax. Claymore, the MC, is a well known and accomplished alien [Navino] lawyer from a light [gravity] world that makes him physically brittle. For me he has a sort of Perry Mason in spade feel. He is also relatively (and sometimes brutally) honest (which is an interesting take on the lawyer trope) and it often works to his own detriment as he investigates, and then works against, a shadowy criminal organization that is trafficking other aliens. The dialog is very direct and simple, but that actually works to give the MC an other or alien feel. Over all it was a good story that I enjoyed much more than I though I would and that gives it a +1 star over the quality of the story and performance.

I was given this free advance review/listener copy (ARC) audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
