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. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you like quick reads, no. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you like reads you dream about, yes. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e...It's one of the best SF I've read in years. --Shawn Jones, Hard SF Author of \u003cem\u003eThe Warrior Chronicles\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"D.
