Resumen del Editor

Taiki Sato had long been the genius behind the Winged Hussars’ success.

He spent years innovating, discovering new technologies, and generally making a nuisance of himself. But when he took his first trip to 2nd Level Hyperspace, everything changed. He created an innovative pinplant design, which he had Nemo, the Hussar’s Wrogul physician, install. A short time later, he executed a perfectly planned escape, disappearing from New Warsaw.

The new pinplants had awakened memories previously forgotten. A thought here, a scene there. Bit by bit, he began to realize he was missing a huge part of his life’s memories. Maybe most of it. So, with one of the clones of Rick Culper, a deceased marine Nemo had resurrected to experiment on, Sato snuck away to find out how far down the rabbit hole his memories would take him.

With Rick’s body installed in a new, incredibly powerful suit of armor known as an Æsir, the two return to Earth, where Sato was born. But he’s not the only one interested in his history; powerful entities from his past are very curious where he’s been.

The journey of rediscovery will take Sato back to the beginning, not just of himself, but of how he’d changed the course of humanity’s involvement in the Galactic Union. And - if he and Rick didn’t have enough to deal with - they have a stowaway.

In the end, he will find out who and what he was. The Sword of Minerva.

Would have given 5 stars , the stores are good.

But series has too many characters and jumps around too much.The timeliness bounce around.. You get stories about The 4 Horsemen, then the next book in series has nothing to do with them at all.

Don't get me wrong I enjoyed listening to all the books I have purchased, but in a series one expects the characters i in the first book to be in them all. When reading/listening to a book you develop a relationship whitb the characters and want to find out what happen to them next in the following book. But only to find out that the next book that it is a totally different group. The book prior to this one was about the adopted Zuul.

Also, the timeline jumps from book to book. I understand that space is vast and travel takes time, but The 4 Horsemen i get the feeling are months ahead in timeliness.I think that this is a good series of books, but there are multiple series in it and could be their own series as stand alone.

I understand that all these characters will eventually cross paths or come together in an epic for all the marbles battle against the Guilds, but this series has over 25 main protagonist .

Not sure if I will purchase anymore of the series just because of what I said above. id compare it to tunning in to watch a Star Trek TNG episode and you get a Deep Space Nine and the following week Voyager then back to TNG.

Like I said before I enjoy the books. but too much jumping around.

Dr. Sati is back

Rick culper and Dr. sato are back!! This is an excellent sequel and it also provides much needed history of Nemo, the winged hussars, and Sato. The book leaves you wanting more. It is excellent

wow

This book is the 1st book I have ever listened to or read that compelled me to make a review but as far as this series goes it turns everything on its head...and then DOES IT AGAIN! keep up the excellent work!
