The Stunning Conclusion to Jay Allan's Crimson Worlds Refugees Trilogy!

The Final Struggle...

A battered group of human ships, fighting for survival, fleeing deeper into the far unknown, pursued by the deadly forces of the genocidal artificial intelligence known as the Regent. A legendary commander, the man who has saved his people time and time again, struggling to lead the fleet ever forward, fighting through every attack the enemy throws at them.

A hidden world, a remote refuge prepared millennia ago, holding the promise of a new future - if the fleet can reach it and hold it against the Regent's relentless attacks.

Admiral Terrance Compton and his lost fleet battle their way forward, striving to reach the end of their great journey. They will fight with all the strength and power that remains in them, standing firm, resolute against all the force the Regent hurls at them. But their destiny is no longer in their hands. In the end the fleet's survival rests on the courage and strength of a tiny force of marines and a desperate mission - one that will lead this group of warriors right through the enemy's thickest defenses, to the very heart of the enemy's domains, the ancient home world of the First Imperium...and the inner sanctum of the Regent itself.

The action-packed conclusion to the Crimson Worlds Refugees series!

Great Book 3

Is it the end.....probably not - but it is a nice conclusion to most of the series conflicts. New ones await!

You GOTTA read this book!

This book by Jay Allan is so exciting! And almost impossible to put down, once you start reading it - or listening to it on Audible, as I just did! A relatively small group of human beings fight against seemingly insurmountable odds to survive and find a planet on which they can build a new civilization. The humans are led by brave, capable and highly principled leaders, and they will need every ounce of courage, discipline, honor and sense of duty that their military personnel have brought with them! Their enemy isn’t human and doesn’t intend to stop until they are all eradicated.

”Down it's throat”, again

Few! Finally finished. Yes I enjoyed. I did find myself dreading any battle since the same phrases and concepts were simply trotted-out every. single. time -- and for a series with lots of battles, that was really often.
A reasonably satisfying resolution.
Yeah, 4/5.

Sacrifices we're made.

It's nice to never know if one or many of the main characters will make it and it takes a strong storyteller to make it happen while keeping the reader engaged. This is a hard yet thrilling book to read with every manner of heroics and sacrifice every space drama requires. Again as with the other books, he repeatedly repeats as if just to use the extra words as a filler. It's probably the most frustrated I've been with a author who otherwise writes a great story. I find my self pulled from the story hoping he'll quickly finish the rambling so the story can continue.

well written if not a common theme. What happened to the nanobots that controlled the two assassins?

What a shitty ending

I thought I was going to like it. Most of the book was great. And then it was all ruined by the ending. Any good feelings I had are gone now. It seems like the desire by the author to keep it all going won out over good judgement in ending a story arc. He just couldn’t let it go.
If you want to feel even remotely positive after listening to dozens of hours of this saga, do NOT listen to the epilogue. It seriously will ruin everything. I hate being jerked around like that by authors. I’m done.
