Resumen del Editor

Senseless butchery on a colossal scale. That’s the hallmark of the Dread Fleet wherever it goes. No force has ever been able to stop it, and now it threatens the Empire, the Queen, and humanity itself. Queen Kalila must organize a defense against it, calling on friends and foes alike.

Meanwhile, Calvin and his crew venture urgently into the untold, unknown dangers of Forbidden Space, hoping to get answers from the deadliest and strangest Polarians of all. Answers that could help the humans save their Empire - and themselves - before it’s too late. And all is lost forever. It’s a desperate move, Calvin knows, and one that very likely will kill him and all his friends.

characters you wish you could meet!

I recommend that you follow the Phoenix series all the way through, start to finish. Each character is unique and different. My Favorite is Lieutenant Calvin Cross. I could visualize each individually described character, their personalities and manorisms! They were believable, likable parts in a vast universe. They made you feel compassion, or disgust for each part they played. I would enjoy seeing this story turned into a movie. Richard Sanders is a creative innovative writer. I look forward to his next series!

a few too many trails.

Great series enjoyed every single one of the books this is the last one overall a good story but it seem like the author was really trying to push the thought that there is no God no matter what he wanted to say it over and over and over and it's been proven and it's been said blah blah blah blah blah Tell a story that's fine want to believe there's no God fine You don't have to tell me over and over and over and over and over.

The other little grape would be too many but maybe or if it's like this guy doesn't know how to make a decision and therefore nobody in his books knows how! it's just the fact that there's no time that any decision is made!

Finished but VERY hard to finish!

Very long winded. Very invested in unimportant characters. Written in a way that feels extremely condescending to the reader. During the battle (which, by all accounts, was handled in ways that really didn't make much sense strategically) the information given is arbitrary and useless to even understand what is going on. Lots of red dots and blue dots....now there are less. that's about all the detail that can be actually followed.

The cover art for the book ruined the ending. Although it's conclusion was..unsatisfying. After 6 previous books, you do not need to remind me about Christine, or Rane (Rain?), or Reznak being formally of Calahar.

Also Cal has to be the dumbest smart person in there universe, along with every important character in the series. Always asking questions that they as people from those positions, in that universe SHOULD know..and that we as readers obviously know already as well.

Calling women in authority positions, "Sir" is not woke or socially evolved. If anything it feels like one more higher pedastool men have procured over women by making masculine respect universal and non exclusive to gender.

Also also, and this one I can't stress this one enough, in reference to this entire series,........ Mags (magazines) and clips are not interchangeable words!! Clips hold rounds. you slide them off the clips and push them, one by one, into the mag, which is then inserted in the "magwell" of the weapon. Pistols get mags, rifles get mags. rifle rounds come in clips of 10 lol.

I very much enjoyed books one and 2, and hated the plot convenient healing of Shin.

Overall, I'm just glad I'm done. Loved the world and really wanted to get lost in it, but after book 4 it really became laborsome to get through.

But hey, that's just my one opinion as a reader.
