About this listen

“Space opera the way it ought to be…Bujold and Weber, bend the knee; interstellar adventure has a new king, and his name is Walter Jon Williams.” (George R. R. Martin)

At last, the climactic final episode of the Dread Empire’s Fall trilogy - what started with The Praxis and The Sundering comes to a brilliant conclusion in Walter Jon Williams’ epic space adventure.

Working on opposite sides of the galaxy - one in deep space, the other undercover on an occupied planet - and haunted by personal ghosts, Captain Gareth Martinez and Lieutenant Lady Caroline Sula fight to save the Empire from the vicious alien Naxid. In a desperate, audacious bid to stop the Naxid fleet, Martinez makes a move that could win the war…and lose his career. Meanwhile, Sula’s guerilla tactics may not be enough to stop the Naxid - until she tries one deadly final gambit.

Great book loved the story and the book narration can’t wait to listen to the next book I highly recommend it 👍😀⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great book

Detailed, imaginative and filled with great characters. Absolutely loved it. Felt like it could’ve been set in Elizabethan times just as easily - but I probably wouldn’t’ve enjoyed it as much

Incredible

Good story and characters. Goes on a bit of a tangent this time compared to previous books

Great but a bit long
