A Gathering of Rebels: Volume 2

THE STORY:

They were a gathering of rebels
Thrown together, not by happenstance,
But by design and intrigue-
The Ben Drom's design
And the Cadre's intrigue-
Except for one wild radical,
One unpredictable element,
Who threatened to undermine
The efforts of all sides involved,
and all because of one small minor-
A Syrene who belonged to
None other than the Ben Drom.

They were a gathering of rebels,
Fighting one another and themselves
In a clash of titans.

REVIEW:

"One of the best SF I've read in years."

In the tradition of Frank Herbert, Aeros has built a science fiction epic that ebbs and flows like the metaplassen that propels the ships of the multiverse. On a grand stage, of which the human-like Terrans occupy only a small portion, a story of oath and intrigue is told against the backdrop of interstellar and multi-dimensional space. From the beginning, it is clear that Aeros built the worlds we travel from the atom up, with unrivaled detail paid to every aspect of the story. Whether it be naming conventions, or the passage of time, or even the nature of the seemingly alive ships themselves, the reader is immersed in a rich, colorful, and remarkably comprehensive tapestry.

If you like quick reads, no.

If you like reads you dream about, yes.

...It's one of the best SF I've read in years. --Shawn Jones, Hard SF Author of The Warrior Chronicles
