Publisher's summary

After bringing listeners The Dread Empires Fall Trilogy (The Praxis, The Sundering, and Conventions of War), Skyboat Media and Blackstone Publishing come together again to present The Praxis Triad, an original audiobook compilation of three novellas from Walter Jon Williams’s Praxis universe.

Investments finds Gareth Martinez unable to find a meaningful post due to the hostility of his superiors. He’s accepted a meaningless post as Inspector General of Chee, a newly settled world. Intending nothing more than a pleasant vacation with his family, he first stumbles across a murderous conspiracy, and then learns he must battle a literal cosmic menace that threatens to wipe out all life on the planet.

In The Stickpin, set in the Naxid War, Caroline Sula leads the resistance against the Naxid occupiers and shows how a pleasant afternoon stroll can have deadly consequences to the enemy.

Then in Impersonations

Having offended her superiors by winning a battle without permission, Caroline Sula has been posted to the planet Earth, a dismal backwater where careers go to die. But Sula has always been fascinated by Earth history, and she plans to reward herself with a long, happy vacation amid the ancient monuments of humanity’s home world.

Sula may be an Earth history buff, but there are aspects of her own history she doesn’t want known. Exposure is threatened when an old acquaintance turns up unexpectedly. Someone seems to be forging evidence that would send her to prison. And all that is before someone tries to kill her.

If she’s going to survive, Sula has no choice but to make some history of her own.

A must read following the Praxis trilogy

Three great stories that continue the character development of the characters of the Praxis trilogy and set the stage for the following novels. If you’ve finished the six main novels published to date, don’t despair. Take a short hop back in time to see what the characters were doing between wars. It’s also a joy to hear the original narrator’s great performance again.

Great stuff

I enjoyed this as much as the rest, but why doesn't audible tell me the order of these books. it is moronic that the next book in the series isn't shown. i have had multiple spoilers revealed to me because I started the wrong book. I had no idea the triad existed until I was halfway through the Accidental War and searched Goodreads to find out why they were referencing things I had never heard. It is ridiculous I have to go elsewhere online to find the next book in the series. it's moronic and detrimental to the author. I may not have even known there were more books after the first 3 at all. This is a huge oversight. There should be a link guiding the listener to the next installment when the book ends. How is there not? If there is I haven't seen it. So if there is it's being done wrong. Also the books after this one sound like AI is speaking. Just saying. I miss Stephan Rudnicki, I think his name is. Maybe he retired or something, but the new guy sucks.

Soooooo sloooooowww

The plot didn’t move at all in the first hour … gave up. Excessive detail on aspects that didn’t matter.
