Publisher's Summary

Three years ago, as ship's mage of the starship Blue Jay, Damien Montgomery was pursued to the edge of human space by both the agents and enemies of the mage-king of Mars before being brought in from the cold. Now, trained in new skills by the mage-king himself, Damien has been sent to the planet Ardennes alongside Alaura Stealey, hand of the king. A rebel movement there has destroyed cities fighting a governor seemingly lost to corruption. But not all on Ardennes is as it seems. As allies become enemies and an entire world comes apart in chaos around him, Damien will find both his skills and integrity tested to the utter limit.

Space Opera - Strap in, hang on and enjoy!

This is the fifth audiobook from this author and narrator team that I have listened to. I'll admit it..."Space Opera" rings my bell. So does fantasy and magic. But it needs to be good. It needs to be swashbuckling and exciting, with starships and technological wizardry to dream about. There has to be a feeling that the palladin, rebel, mage or kitchen hand will eventually outwit the traps and trials set in ambush. Be it skill, power, charm or downright cunning, deep down we know that the bad guy just doesn't stand a chance. You HAVE to be there at the end when, one way or another, justice is done. This IS good! and getting better with each new book. Suspend all belief, strap in, hang in and enjoy.

Excellent

This series is enormously entertaining and well constructed. Great characters and plenty of intrigue and action. Beautifully narrated.
