Synopsis

Arabella is now a hero, but her new status brings attention that could threaten all she holds dear, in this final cosmic adventure.

Finally and truly husband and wife, Arabella Ashby and Capt. Prakash Singh are lauded as heroes in England after defeating Napoleon at the Battle of Venus.

When they are invited to the Brighton palace of His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, a Martian- and Venusian-inspired architectural marvel, the mechanically-bent Arabella finds herself drawn to the prince’s steam-powered Merlin chair and two-wheeled Draisine.

But the Prince has motives other than mere entertainment for their visit. He offers Singh a great opportunity, divulged under a cloak of secrecy. In his dual role of captain and spy, Singh will be sent to Mars to help bring the planet under British control, a mission that
will pit Arabella’s love and loyalty for her home against the most powerful realm in the universe.

Goodreads review by Tim on November 17, 2018

I think this series has jumped the shark. I enjoyed #1 and #2, but I don't think this one adds much. In fact, it reveals that the characters aren't that interesting; indeed, Aadim has as much personality as most of them. This one plods along for pages with people being stodgy and disapproving, and A......more

Goodreads review by Aleshia on October 15, 2022

This final book of the trilogy really focused on ship navigating and ship battles. I think if you enjoy naval military fiction, this could maybe be fun.
