Dean Silver. Wildcard. Kidnapper. The last one hasn’t led me into hot water just yet, but it’s only a matter of time. Capturing the formerly super-powered diva known as Phenomenon has set the clock to ticking. Before it runs out, I need to figure out what to do with her. She has knowledge far beyond anything my team has, and I want her to help me. The question is: will she do it? If she doesn’t, Unity might just find themselves destroyed before they barely had the chance to shine.

During a routine arrest, Van discovers a stolen spacecraft, its importance far greater than it first appears. Fast, sleek, and beautiful, the ship is a cultural relic from Linulla’s people, and returning their property will set off a chain of events that reveals a new adversary. Rising in the ranks, Van’s confrontation with a pirate leader isn’t just a case of theft, but something far more sinister. And Van’s going to take this case personally. He and his crew will chase the Salt Thieves and their leader in a game that can only have one winner.

When Van gains rank as a Peacemaker, he becomes a bigger target for the criminals scattered among the stars. And he wouldn’t have it any other way. On a distant world under an alien sun, hunters and their companions—the Rovan—bond in a ritual as old as their civilization. But one of the hunters is missing, and Van, along with his growing crew, knows where to look. Climbing up into the rarified air of the super-rich, Van uncovers a new enemy: The Fade. And they are as cruel as the stars are many.

awesome book as always. even better than the last one. my only complaint is that as an Iowa boy it drives me nuts to hear you pronounce Elkader. it's pronounced "El - kay - der". not El - kuh - dur. small point for sure but still.

Sheriff Hayden Duke was born on the starship Pilgrim, like his father, and his father before him. He expects to die any second. He's already been attacked by demonic aliens, rogue soldiers, and even the people he thought were his friends. He's survived. Barely. He's entered a strange new world. A world he knows nothing about. A world where hope has been buried beneath the claws of monsters and the boots of a tyrant. They took his wife. He has to find her. He has to survive. Another second. Another breath. He can never give up. He can never rest until she's back in his arms.

Somewhat annoying
Reviewed: 12-16-22
the first book and part of this one are all from Sheriff Duke's pov. Then suddenly, we start switching between him and his wife. I'm grateful for the alt viewpoint but why in the middle of the second book? The narrator's character voices are sometimes so close together it's hard to tell them apart. Pretty well written story. Interesting new names for cities. I'll read more.

is AMAZING!! I've listened to every book with no regrets. Can't wait for the next book. As a fellow Ozarkian I have no problem with the mental picture of "Saucer Holler". Mr Boyd is a true wordsmith.
Bring on the next one!!

The Great Brain is Tom D. Fitzgerald, aged 10. The story is told by J.D., a sometimes confounded but always admiring younger brother. Such people as Mr. Standish, the mean schoolmaster, regret the day they came up against The Great Brain. But others, like the Jensen kids lost in Skeleton Cave, Basil, the Greek kid, or Andy, who has lost his leg and his friends, know that Tom's great brain never fails to find a way home.

Reviewed: 06-28-22
I read these books as a child and hadn't given them another thought in 30 years. Very well written for children/young adult books. There are a few historical errors that MY big brain won't let me miss (erector sets didn't come out until 20 yrs after this timeline and in rural America more specific rural Utah, 99.9% of individuals didn't have home phones until the 50's) but these aside, I highly recommend this series to anyone.

This series is surprisingly good. I have enjoyed the author in other works but I was still pleasantly surprised how well written and captivating these books are. It's no a shoot 'em up or a Reacher/Swagger but damn if it isn't just a good all around read.
I very much need a few more books in this series.
