Synopsis

The galaxy stands on the brink of war, yet hope remains that the vast web of schemes can be exposed before it's too late, in this astounding space opera from the acclaimed game, Twilight Imperium

The balance of power is shifting, with bold new alliances, unknown invaders, and the rumored return of the galaxy's ancient masters. When black-ops spy Amina Azad saves a Hacan ambassador from assassination, she draws him into her investigation of a vast conspiracy: unseen forces are destabilizing the whole galaxy, at the worst possible time. Pursued by agents from dozens of other factions, they can only make progress by allying with their apparent enemies. But even they might be compromised—duped into action by a secret puppet-master. How can they trust an alliance when they can't trust themselves?

Thanks, Netgalley and Publisher for the opportunity to read and review! Very intriguing sci-fi space novel! It's part of a series, which I still have to check the other installments, but the conspiracy plot and mystery in this one keeps you on edge from beginning to end. I loved it!......more

Goodreads review by J. (JL)

So, I just went through these three books without having played the game, and found all three to be quite enjoyable. Of the three this one was probably my favorite just because the stakes felt higher. Going between the written memoir of one character to 3rd person narration was an interesting choice......more
