Resumen del Editor

Bud and his team are now officially a squadron.

An Ensign in the navy is a Pilot Officer in fighters, and both are entry level officer ranks, and rarely ever paid any attention to. A squadron of Ensigns is a contradiction in terms, especially to the new influx of experienced pilots from new Imperium members.

But the team are too busy with Eagle Wing to notice the changes happening around them.

Magic in combat changes the dynamic. But every time one side gains an advantage, the other will adapt somehow. As the first of the new Excalibur squadrons ready for combat, Bud and his squadron must lead adapting to the Trixone response to their own success. But who is the real enemy? Does magic level the rank structure? Or emphasize differences? Should it even matter?

Bud finds himself in the middle of the new verses traditional argument, as the Imperium military expands by necessity. The squadron is still Jane's experiment, but is this way of training the captains of the future really going to work?

Magic doesn't solve everything, but for now, Bud must be . . .

Ensign Spacemage.

Absolutely fabulous

So the thing I've noticed about Ellis's writing in this universe, so far, is that an occasional reset is required because the slightly overpowered main character faces escalating challenges until the scope is bigger than what works for any individual.

This story is like Thorn's series (Yesterday's Spacemage, ...) in most ways. Beside a lot of action, obstacles, and risk, there is a simple satisfaction that one's moral convictions correlate with success and a peaceful way of living. Ironically, neither Thorn nor Bud (main character herein) have a solid respect for eternal personal consequences with sexual behavior... They appear to be monogamous, but not completely. It makes me think that, with other well defined and very intelligent models for society, the author wishes there to be less discipline on sexual behavior along with an otherwise improved society. That is just speculation, of course. Mostly, each book is a very satisfying treat and I hope to acquire all books from this universe.

Great book

Another great book by a great author and a great listen to great character development fast paced, lots of action

I like it until I didn’t

The Bathroom scene in every book became so bizarre for me…I could not listen to another of this AUTHOR pre-adolescent Words
