Publisher's summary

This hard sci-fi novel is the seventh book in the Stasis Stories series of optimistic tales of technological innovation in the near future. This one is about Kaem Seba’s daughter, Zaii, a young woman who, like her father, has extraordinary math talents.

Eager to do her part in the war against the aliens from Epsilon Eridani, she becomes a Space Force ROTC cadet. Soon after that, she’s proving to be a superb young officer. However, as she studies potential warfighting strategies that might be used against the Eridanis, she realizes that the defenders of Sol system have a problem.

The humans won the first battle against the Eridanis by using the technical advantage afforded by the invulnerability of stasis. But the Eridanis jump and biowarfare technology could easily allow them to wipe out the human race on Earth and thus win the war.

Offered the opportunity, she sets out to study the wreckage of the Eridani ships from the first battle. She hopes to figure out how jump works, thus appropriating that technology for human use and evening the playing field. Can she figure this out in time to keep the Eridanis from exterminating homo sapiens? It turns out to be a lot harder than she’d hoped and to require help from someone she tries to avoid asking.

Captivating!

The story is interesting and flows better than the previous one did. The story still jumps a little more than I'd like. Overall, while it is a good story, it is hard to abandon Kaem as the main character. I would have loved for him to play a bigger role.

Great story full of convincing possibilities

Why do we read/listen to science fiction novels? To join the author’s imaginative journey through invention, space and even time. The author wove the technical aspects into the story effortlessly. I very much enjoyed this story.

Enders Game, anyone?

Reminded me of enders Game, in a good way. we have a new genius taking the story further. Very fun. They're lucky enough to meet the galaxy's dumbest aliens, but sometimes you get lucky I suppose.

Ready for the next book!

The whole series it's just a lot of fun, and a lot of tech. It's very interesting, and some very different takes on strategies. It kept me listening at every opportunity.

that cebas daughter is as or even smarter than him

well I think it's just way to unrealistic in that if not ceba his daughter are so smart that they don't need anyone and I get the impression that a person like that would be the most humble. I don't know I mean the story is great and I'm glad ceba and his daughter are on the good side but then if they were bad. fun but no real danger but it is the kinda of world I wish we had
