Another excellent installment by Kevin J. Anderson. My only complaint is that the constantly shifting viewpoints means it takes a long time to come to resolution; there's a portion in the middle where five consecutive chapters basically end with "something is coming..." The payoff is well worth it, though.

Also, Elisa is the worst.

The continuing adventures in the Saga of Shadows trilogy and this picks up right where the Dark Between the Stars left off. This one might suffer a little from middle book syndrome as you see lots more war, death and destruction happening between the Confederation/Ildiran alliance and the Shana Rei but nothing really gets resolved yet. Still a quick and fun read and really looking forward to the last novel in this series.

4 stars for a fun read and recommended for space opera fans along with those following the Seven Suns/Saga of Shadows books.
