The stunning conclusion to the trilogy that began with the Hugo, Nebula, and Arthur C. Clarke Award-winning Ancillary Justice.

For just a moment, things seem to be under control for the soldier known as Breq. Then a search of Atheok Station's slums turns up someone who shouldn't exist - someone who might be an ancillary from a ship that's been hiding beyond the empire's reach for three thousand years.

In the meantime, a messenger from the alien and mysterious Presger empire arrives, as does Breq's enemy, the divided and quite possibly insane Anaander Mianaai - ruler of an empire that's at war with itself.

Anaander is heavily armed and extremely unhappy with Breq. She could take her ship and crew and flee, but that would leave everyone at Athoek in terrible danger. Breq has a desperate plan. The odds aren't good, but that's never stopped her before.

I have listened to this series for the nth time. Every read and every listen, it gets better. It’s simply sublime. The plot, the beautiful way the story is told (poetic? ), the audio execution. It is my favourite book in this genre. Thank you Ms Leckie, your book has enriched my life.

Its hard for me to find fault with this trilogy. But I sometimes wonder whether it's success is due to the narrator, such is her skill at delivering rich characters.

Thats said, it's the motivation and actions of these characters which make them so compelling.
I adore these book and the only real difficulty is explaining them to friends in some vain hope they will also read them.

resounding success

The first two books were quite decent, so I was hopeful about this one. Unfortunately, the simplistic lucky-good and dumb-evil story dominates throughout and sci-fi elements take a step back. I had never struggled to finish an audiobook before.

Boring cliché

The whole series makes a very interesting saga. The first two books are - to me - not complete. Only here in the third book you get a clearer idea of how things are really working. The complexity of the storyline is not the problem to me. Rather it feels like the first two books are cut too short without any conclusion. Maybe it should have been just one very long book out of these three.

As you progress in the series the books get better
