Publisher's summary

In a surprise attack that killed many of her dearest subjects, Hail Bristol, empress of Indrana, has been captured by the Shen - the most ruthless and fearsome aliens humanity has ever encountered. As she plots her escape, the centuries-long war between her captors and the Farians, their mortal enemies and Indrana's oldest allies, finally comes to a head.

When her captors reveal a shocking vision of the future, Hail must make the unexpectedly difficult decision she's been avoiding: whether to back the Shen or the Farians.

5th book goes off the rails.

The first half of the story move very slowly. It seemed to be more focused on developing excuses for giving the main character romantic Stockholm Syndrome for her captor than advancing the story. Then in an attempt to justify this, the author tries to shift the balance of power in that relationship. So it won’t be as cringy. And the she is basically brainwashed through psychological and physical torture, but we’re supposed to be OK with it because she believes it was a “choice” she had to make. And don’t get me started on the massive sexual shift on the main character- She was so in love with a man that died that it drove her motivations for 4 books. But hey, she is a strong female lead, so she must be lesbian or bisexual, right? Combined with her falling for her own captor and it’s really hard to stomach. I’m trying to ignore this because I care about the characters as built up previously. This book is a divergence from previous ones Angele Masters does a great job narrating as always
