New wars and old conflicts. An empire reborn from blood and ash.
Nikia Idan led an uprising that liberated the Tribari people. Brek Trigan saved his colony from starvation. Captain Drake Elgin protected the citizens of Central from loyalist forces. The worst was supposed to be behind them.
When a loyalist fleet appears in Tribari airspace, the tenuous alliance between the military and parliament is strained to the point of breaking. Meanwhile, a rogue governor's quest for independence will put the empire's promise of freedom to the test.
The decisions of these few will change the fate of many.

I like how Rachel Ford combined the story lines of Nikia Idan and Brek Trigan: Nikia being forced to serve and act as a face of the successful revolution because of Grel and the baby; Brek learning how to be a minister in a world that he feels uncomfortable in. There was so much potential, both political and personal, here that I couldn't wait to see where it went.
Again, I loved the story line for Captain Elgin. There was a bunch of action and intrigue with his parts, and I loved his interactions with his fellow Captain Mercer. I would have been happy to see more of him.
One of the issues that I had with this series is that I felt many of the bigger story arcs were glossed over or too brief. I know the first three books were fairly short and Absolution was double the length of those, but I really wish Ford would have delved deeper into all the major areas of the series: the bad guys, the fights, etc. Just when I would really settle into the story it would jump into something else. The big scenes didn't have enough meat to sustain me. I wanted more!
I will say that there was plenty going on in this final book of the series. Maybe a little too much? It just seemed like Ford kept tossing plot after plot into the story when it would have been stronger to break each new conflict into a different book and expand the series, or just cut some of the fluff altogether.
Now that I've finished the series, I would rate the audiobook narrator at a solid C. I disliked Megan Green through the first two books. By the third I adjusted to her quirks and I mostly cruised along with her in the fourth book. I still believe this series would have been better served by having a male narrator or someone who is excellent at doing a range of male voices, considering the number of main male characters there are in this book.
One note on the production of the audiobook. Green's transitions between scenes were so quick that sometimes I was bewildered on what was going on. It sounded more like a continuation of a sentence rather than a changing of perspective. It's a small matter, but would make it easier to listen to and understand if there were slight pauses in those parts.

Good conclusion to the series

I recently reread "Absolution:The Tribari Freedom Chronicles, Book 4" by listening to the the version available on Audible that was narrated by awesome Megan Green, more on that later.... So here us an updated version of my original review.
Want to read a love story? It's in there! Two of them, in fact.
Want high flying space adventure and "Hail Mary" tactics? It's in there!
Want to know the answer to the eternal question "Oh PARK!! We won. Now what do we do"? It's in there.
Want to see politicians ( the slimy kind ) get their comeuppance? Yes, it's in there!
Ford has crafted a fine tale that is fun to read with superb world building and character development.
I reccommend this book highly. Get it in any format that you, my fellow readers, can get it in.
Now, a bit more about narrators and audio books. Green does a fantastic job of narration bringing the story to life. A good narrator can make a not so good story even better, or a great story even greater. Green started with a great story and its even better for her narration. In addition, here's a shout out to the audio production team that took the raw audio and polished it into the diamond form that I listened to. Great job folks!
In the interest of transparency: I was given a free review copy of this book and I am voluntarily sharing this review.
It is my own honest opinion.
A great read in any format.

Not fond of the narrator. I’d prefer to read the book over listening to this narrator. She has a lisp and it’s just too distracting to enjoy the book.

Tribari Freedom Chronicles Conclusion has done the series well. I feel that the author has grown.
Although I would love to hear more to this series, I just cannot stand to hear the dead dead dead again.
I received a copy of this audiobook at my request in exchange for this honest review.
Getting better

The author obviously has a lot of talent and an amazing ability to weave together complex plots and subplots. Looking backward at the story (having read all of the books), you see how all of the complex threads come together. I would even go so far to say that this story would make a great tv series.
However: How many people will never pick up book 2 to continue the series?
The narrator has grown on me in four books, but I still think a different choice would have been better.
Excellent book!
