Publisher's summary

The UFS Phoenix is on a mission to find a lost data-core that may contain the secret to defeating the alo-deepynine alliance. But the means to find the data-core is hidden deep in tavalai space, in a highest-security vault where the tavalai's manipulative State Department keep all their most treacherous secrets. To recover it, Phoenix must pull off the most daring heist the Spiral has ever seen. But Phoenix will need help - in the form of a rebellious faction of the tavalai Fleet; a fanatical parren mystic who lusts mostly for power; a cynical old tavalai marine who's spent much of his life fighting humans; and a superintelligent AI queen who will sacrifice anything to rescue her race from extinction. None of them can be trusted, and neither Captain Erik Debogande nor Major Trace Thakur is experienced in this kind of work. But each must gather his ingenuity and courage and learn as they go, as the scale of the threat confronting humanity looms larger, and the clock is ticking.

Great series

A great sci-fi book. This is part 3, so start with book 1 if you haven't already.

This book is basically Ocean's 11 meets Star Trek. Don't let that turn you off, it was a great listen and had a nice pace and plenty of action / plot.

Sets the stage nicely for the next book as well.

Good continuation of a great space opera!

Not quite as good as books 1 & 2 but keeps the story of the Pheniox & her crew moving the right direction & sets the stage for this expanding universal story! How I gauge a good to great story comes @ the end, if my knee jerk reaction is to immediately look to download the next book in a series! And so I'm happy to report, that has now happened 3 times to me with this series!
Unfortunately, I do not see book four currently available on Audible, so I find myself wanting more, with less!
If you are a fan of well written space opera a la Jack Campbell, give this series a listen. But be forwarned, book one takes @ least 2hrs of "what the hell is this" & "will this ever get going" thoughts before hitting its stride. But once the author sets his story table you may have just found how you'll be spending your next credit few credits!

truckers opinion

I enjoy the escape while driving OTR. I enjoy the series. I would like to see the negative reviewers attempt even a 12 page short story.
