About this listen

A dark shadow awakens on the edge of known space. Long lost and long forgotten, an alien foe rises—one that would power its return by enslaving humanity!

During her pursuit of the human traitors known as Nemesis, Mage-Captain Roslyn Chambers ventured deep into alien stars. She destroyed her enemy at the final moment but saw firsthand the might of the alien empire Nemesis called the Reejit.

The lost world Chimera has hidden between human and alien space for generations. Roslyn must protect the planet from this waking threat, but both the human and alien colonists see her as a harbinger of nightmares. Roslyn may have the full faith of the Mage-Queen of Mars, but political interference quickly undercuts Roslyn’s diplomatic power and the chain of command. She is replaced as Ambassador by Connor O’Hannagain, a man loyal to the Protectorate, but not its Queen or credos.

Chimera’s fate will decide that of a hundred worlds. Can Roslyn save Chimera, make an ally of O’Hannagain, and serve her Queen? She’ll need to draw on every trick she knows as an officer, a Mage, and a protégé of Damien Montgomery—or fail to uphold every oath she has sworn!

This series is awesome

I really like this series and it's mix between magic, space opera, and political drama.

Great

If you're this far into the story you know what to expect.
Another great offering. Narration is spot on as usual.

Advanced the Story

Good but not but not my favorite of the series. I like the magic and space battles this book had less of that than past books.

A continuing joy to listen too

Excellent continuation of a story line started so many years ago with a simple shops mage wanting to do what he
was trained to do and now his protégés acting the heroes and heroines they are. Gives hope for mankind and our future.

Might be the best one

This book was on the same level as some of the first ones with Damien Montgomery as the MC. Best one with Chambers

awesome as always!

As always this latest installment delivers everything we've come to love of the series action, intrigue, world building and amazing characters! Everytime a new starship mage book comes out I end up bingeing my way through it!

Disappointing

This is the only book in the series thus far I felt is seriously lacking in interesting content and story advancement. The vast majority of the book went on and on in unnecessary and boring detail about politics. Only at the end did anything of consequence or interest happen. It felt as if the author was much more interested in producing a book to publish than writing a good book for the reader. I absolutely loved the series up until this book and I hope reviews like motivate the author to get back to the kind of writing that made the other books so good until this one.

Conflicts are starting to get lazy

I've been on the fence about the entire Nemesis story line up to this point but this book has finally tipped over the edge. K is just too stupid to be a real person. If he was the only one that was stupid and/or crazy that would be fine but it seems to be spreading to other characters so their stupid decisions can create conflicts for the main characters to solve.

While there is something to the whole "Sure, but what have you done for us lately" mindset, it feels like every character outside of the main characters has completely forgotten everything that's happened up to this point. You have naval officers that still think Chambers is a clueless kid, you have politicians that think Kiera doesn't know what in the constitution and apparently don't know the constitution themselves, ex-republican admirals somehow think they have moral superiority over people and all wrapped up with a supporting cast that is just enthusiastically nodding along like all of this makes any sort of sense. Being the bigger man, suffering the slings and arrows, et cetera is all good but the fact that no one ever puts their foot down and sets things straight is just ridiculous.

Connor seems like he might be an interesting addition, we'll have to see. He's not written as someone that seems like they understand people well but the author insists that he does and makes things work for him so I guess thats it, but nothing in how he acts or how he speaks to other characters really matches with the results. At least he doesn't appear to be effected by the brain drain that's effecting a lot of the other characters but he's a main character and that seems to be demarcation for whatever is effecting everyone else.

The Reejit/Reezh would be better served as an antagonist but for the most part they're still not doing much. Hopefully they'll start to actually be the boogie man they were built up to be in the future books but until then we're stuck with people just running around causing problems because the book needs problems whether or not the reason for those problems make any sense.
