About this listen

Count Cassius Mass was the greatest star pilot of the Crius Archduchy. He fought fiercely for his cause, only to watch his nation fall to the Commonwealth. It was only after that he realized the side he'd been fighting for was the wrong one. Now a semi-functional navigator on an interstellar freight hauler, he tries to hide who he was and escape his past. Unfortunately, some things refuse to stay buried and he ends up conscripted by the very people who destroyed his homeland. Their mission for him? Destroy his clone before he's used to rouse the defeated Crius Archduchy from their apathy.

This book really was one of the best sci-fi books I've ever read (or heard). The characters were complex and rich, with nobody all good, or bad. They had complicated, real feeling lives.
That is the core of this book. Everyone is the hero of their own story, but sometimes you find out you're more villain than hero.
The world building was also perfectly done. It was such a huge, complex world, but you never feel overwhelmed or out of your depths. The book always tells you what you need to know without sacrificing how rich the universe is.
I won't say more for fear of spoilers, but if you like sci-fi like Star Wars or Blade Runner, you will love this book as much as I did.

Genuinely fantastic!
