Publisher's summary

Imre Bergamasc's life has been nothing if not interesting. Returning from the grave to rule the galaxy, one might be tempted to say that he's taken the worst the universe could throw at him and emerged triumphant. But Imre's problems are only beginning.

Caught between saboteurs, spies, and assassins, his personal quest remains unchanged - to find the people responsible for the Slow Wave that killed the most advanced minds in the galaxy and bring them to justice.

Could it be the Luminous, enigmatic entities who played a role in his own liberation, years ago? Or the shadowy secret organisation calling themselves the Barons? His search for answers will lead him along the darkest, most dangerous byways of human civilization - shadowed always by the mysterious entity known only as Himself.

Could it be that the original Imre Bergamasc still exists and is pursuing the end game of a centuries-long strategy? Only one thing is clear: the decisions he makes now will not only unlock the secrets of his past, but decide the fate of the galaxy.

BONUS AUDIO: Includes an exclusive introduction by author Sean Williams.

Vast improvement

Vast improvement over Saturn Returns and Centoaxis. This book doesn’t try to rely on clever tricks, changing points of view/time and lyrics etc.

It’s a clear plot that reveals part of the story arc and sets things up for whatever the finale is.

I’m satisfied and will continue with the last book in the series.
