De: J.N. Chaney, Terry Maggert

Narrado por: Tom Taylorson

During a standard patrol, Thorn finds the scarred remains of a planet that has been reshaped by an unknown race.

Massive machines were used to alter the landscape, and the only thing missing from the site is magic. Whoever is changing the galaxy, it isn’t the Nyctus.

On a distant planet, Morgan is under constant psionic reeducation, as the Nyctus try to shape her lethal power into a force for their fleet. Resisting them each step of the way, she will be subjected to attacks by the most gifted enemy shamans - but it might not be enough, as the little girl is no longer a confused child. She’s blooming into a being of such magical power that even Thorn might pale in comparison.

With new allies in the galactic war, Thorn must use his gifts to convince one race after another that humans are their allies, not their enemies, and his unique brand of diplomacy just might work. But only if he and Kira can break through their grief and find a path back to Morgan, all while guiding an elite force on a desperate mission to save the girl who just might save them all.

Well done!

I don’t write reviews (ever). This story made me feel good and satisfied the sci/fi fantasy aspect. Again well done!

Wow, wow, wow! Best one yet. Excellent writing, exciting story line and of course Tom you rock!

FINALLY!!!

Everything finally fell into place in this book!!! The story, the continuity, the use of multiple magical abilities, the elimination of being an idiot!!! Yes!!! Thorn Stellars finally became the non-whining hero he was always meant to be!! He remembered that he could harness various magical powers from the same source!!! And everything fell into place!! This is probably the best book in the series so far - and just in time!!!
Even though I had issues with books 3 &4, I will still recommend this series to anyone that loves sci-fi - even with an injection of magic!!!

The series is getting a bit bloated

I love the start of the series and the first few books, but since the previous one in the series, I think that it’s more of a $$ grabber than any sort of sophisticated plot continuation.
