Publisher's summary

Whether they are ready or not, the people are about to find out what the queen’s promise is worth.

When Bethany Anne stepped down as empress, she swore to return if the Federation was ever in danger from outside evil. That time has come.

Bethany Anne’s refusal to be restricted by the impossible has made her plan to protect the Federation a reality, and the return of the Superdreadnought Reynolds brings a long-awaited reunion and an opportunity.

Pulling together old friends and family members from all over the Federation and beyond, Bethany Anne is ready to leave the Interdiction to build a military, whose numbers can rival the Ookens. But is her plan impossible enough to succeed?

Grown twins, new expansion

**Spoilers** In this installment, Bethany Anne has a conversation-negotiation with the Federation about their support in fighting against the Ooken and Kurtherians.
The twins come out of training grown and ready to help the fight. They are joined by K’aia, Trey, Christina Lowell and Kai Walton on a mission to find anti-Bethany Anne militants.
The Reynolds returns from its years of wandering with an adopted crew of biologicals including a wacky inventor who creates senses-enhanced bodies for Reynolds and Izanami.
Meanwhile, the Rangers are resurrected with Akio as Ranger 1, Nikki as Ranger 2, Sabine as Ranger 3. In traveling further out of the Interdiction Zone, the Rangers find a planet that might serve as a home for The Collective but, of course, it brings the Ooken. Once addressed, plans are made to build a shipyard to fill a pressing need for more ships and anchor a space base to protect The Collective once moved.
There were some plot blanks like WHY did Demon have to see Alyssa go to another Universe? If it’s covered in one of the 50 million related books it would have been nice to mention it in the author notes.
The book ends on a happy note with Bethany Anne playing cupid, or should that be fairy godmother?
Beresford does a very decent job of narration. I didn’t notice any of the mispronunciations that haunted the last few books, thank goodness!

Loved it

Loved the book series, bought the series, and all of the audio books. Guess I am a little prejudiced, but if you haven’t followed the story, start with book one and decide for yourself.

Still going strong

This was a good story, Christina's headache was not wholly unexpected. Her father can be kind of an idiot at times, just nowhere near as much of an idiot as TH. Anyone who has been around since before Michael's return might remember, I have always thought TH was an idiot.
it was nice to see the other side of life for a bit.

Content vs action

In your past editor's notes, you have mentioned that some reviews like one over the other. I am here to tell you that this book has a perfect blend of both. Ending the book with a Wedding, nice touch. I'd love to have 1/10th of the skill you have as a writer. God blessed us with your incredible mind. Please continue to share your stories with us. And definitely continue this story line.
