This is an incredible book, though, blurs together with Dark Age in my head. It has certain discernable characteristics, such as a larger focus of personal growth. But as always Brown sometimes comes off as a deus ex machina-machine. It feels like some specific events happen solely because the writer decided 'Well, they can't win now, can they?', which after all these books grows a little old.
All in all, this is not a tough pill to swallow when it takes place on one of the most epic political scifi stages I have ever read. Brown's creativity inspires, and I'm happy to go on a joyride to whichever part of the solarsystem he sees fit.

The best one so far !! I can’t wait to read the next book ! 
If Lysander has haters, I am among them, if Lysander has one hater it is me, if Lysander has no hater, it means that I am dead. 
Virginia I miss you.
