Story4.5 out of 5 stars 31
In Earth's distant future, Tyndel is both teacher and mentor, a staunch devotee to his conservative and rigidly structured religious culture. Then a rogue infection of nanotechnology transforms him into a "demon", something more than human, and he is forced into exile, fleeing to the more technologically advanced space-faring civilization that lies to the north, one that his own righteous people consider evil. Although shaken by his transformation, he has the rare talent required to become a space pilot.

When Earth herself lay under siege by an enemy humankind could not defeat, mankind undertook one last throw of the dice: Operation Ark. Earth's final colonizing expedition was meant to build a new civilization, on a planet so distant even the Gbaba might never find it, and without the high-tech infrastructure whose emissions might betray its location.

You can't militarize space. This one rule has led to decades of peaceful development of space programs worldwide. However, increasing resource scarcity and a changing climate on Earth's surface is causing some interested parties - namely India, the North American Union, and the Sinese Federation - to militarize. The discovery of a strange artifact by Dr. Alayna Wong precipitates a crisis. What appears to be a hitherto undiscovered comet is soon revealed to be an alien structure on a cometary trajectory toward the sun.

Isaac Gallant is the heir apparent to the First Admiral. Unwilling to let his mother’s tyranny stand, he joins the rebellion and leads his ships into war against the might of his own nation. Betrayal and failure, however, see Isaac Gallant and his allies captured. Rather than execute her only son, the First Admiral instead decides to exile them, flinging four million dissidents and rebels through a one-shot wormhole to the other end of the galaxy. There, Isaac finds himself forced to keep order and peace as they seek out a new home without becoming the very dictator he fought against.

The colony world of Stittara is no ordinary planet. For the interstellar Unity of the Ceylesian Arm, Stittara is the primary source of anagathics: drugs that have more than doubled the human life span. But the ecological balance that makes anagathics possible on Stittara is fragile, and the Unity government has a vital interest in making sure the flow of longevity drugs remains uninterrupted, even if it means uprooting the human settlements.

Publisher's Summary
Some bad ideas go back a long way, and this one goes all the way back to the original home planet: Someone's god told them they had a right to more territory - so they figure they can take what they want by divine right.
In the far future among the colonized worlds of the galaxy, there's a war going on between the majority of civilized worlds and a colonial theocracy. Trystin Desoll grows up fighting against religious fanatics and becomes a hero, a first-class pilot, then, amazingly, a spy.
What do you do if you're a relatively humane soldier fighting millions of suicidal volunteers on the other side who know that they are utterly right, and you are utterly wrong, with no middle ground? Trystin Desoll has an idea.

I had faith they would do this audiobook!
When i first got into audiobooks, this novel was one of the ones I searched for. I am glad they finally made it and made it well.
This novel is science fiction the way science fiction should be. Yes it tells a story of how humanity might be in a far distant future beyond this stellar system. However it does not forget that good stories depict a human story. This story follows Trystan Desol as he learns about cultures and the ways cultures meet and interact. This is a heroic story of a human choosing how he wants to live.
Joel Richard does a wonderful job with his performance.

I started hating this book from the beginning.
I thought it was going to be a run of the mill military sci-fi story. You know the routine...sweat through basic training, become a pilot, kill a bunch of aliens or other bad-guys, rinse and repeat until you get wounded, meet a beautiful but unapproachable female (maybe a nurse) fall in love, win the war. I really loathe those books. This one has some nuance, however. this one is a little different. It portrays a more realistic picture of combat...weeks of boredom punctuated by moments of soul-scorching terror. The final part of the book gets more cerebral. What makes people enemies? Is there any point to retribution or revenge? The essence of people is the same, we are all subject to the prejudices and fears we are taught. There is no point in blind hatred and while we may continue to differ in opinion from our "enemies" we can learn to understand that while our differences may persist, we can still live together and prosper.

Long build-up that goes flat at the end.
The author spends 95% of the book with a slow long build-up, then its over.
The end seems like it was squeezed out at the last minute, and is not really plausible.
The whole book is a case study; in a false equivalency between religious fanatics and rational people.
