Fast paced action

I liked that it was a unique colony ship story including the nemesis and the heroine’s journey. YA appropriate.

Taking back the ship

Queens of an Alien Sun is the third installment in Peter F Hamilton's Arkship trilogy. A considerable portion of the arkship inhabitants have been moved to safer quarters. A small band, led by the captain's daughter, Hazel. With the help of the Daedalus AIs, the work out a plan to kill all the Yi, turn the Daedalus around and return to their new world. These plans involve work outside the spaceship and anti-matter bombs as well as tricky re-entry maneuver.

Hamilton provides satisfying closure to this intrepid band of youngsters. The action scenes are well executed as well as some last minute snafus requiring some above and beyond action.

The narration is well done with good character distinction and smooth, brisk pacing.

WHAT a TRILOGY

It took time for Klatt's style to grow on me, but it did! I thoroughly enjoyed th8s trilogy from start to finish, as with all of P.F. Hamilton's work.

Electrifying performance

Great story uncomplicated with R-rated material or dialog. And Dr. Klett is a scintillating narrator!

Not Guano 😂

I only marked this down to 4 stars not because it was a bad read. It was good but maybe just not as good as the previous two books of the series. A good reading nonetheless and the good ending to the series. The narration was good. I just felt that she might have at least tried to change the voice of the little brother a bit when he passed puberty but still sounded like a 9 year old

Great addition to a pretty nice trilogy.

This book will definitely inspire a younger generation into the wonders of science fiction that might one day become reality. Just sad that these books are so short.

Great

A really strong finish to the trilogy. Surprisingly emotional at times. Definitely my favorite of the three books.

Awesome

There is very little I can say about this amazing story about the fight against the evil of genocide!! The captain’s daughter determination and compassion to save her brother to saving many others!! I enjoyed listening to this story very much!!

Straight Forward, Age Appropriate (BrettD Review)

Hamilton does a good job of wrapping things up nicely (as he normally does). The story is generally straight forward and predictable. The language and descriptions are well done to tone it down (both violence and science) for the target audience. If I were a teen finding these stories, I would love them. At my current age, I find these entertaining and good recruitment novels for science fiction.

Great book - narrator was a bit monotone

Very fun finale, some points were a little monotone and emotionless. Which doesn’t let you feel the characters emotions .
