In this book, Daniel and Adele are back with the RCN but with political tensions rising in the streets of the capital, they are quickly sent off on a mission to an unreliable ally of Cinnabar in the depths of space and under the command of a captain who had been accused of unjustly executing the scion of a powerful senator. Out in the depths of beyond the couple find themselves involved with an attempted coup against the leader of their ally in what could be called a military ship, but not a regular warship, just a tender along with her six anti piracy cutters. Being Daniel and Adele, they manage to accomplish their jobs despite the blockages put in their way by uncooperative commanders and enemies who think they can beat the mighty RCN. Unlike the books earlier in the series, this book does go into the politics on Cinnabar to a degree, at least and, as always, this is a rollicking tale when the action gets going.

HTML: Lieutenant Leary and Adele Mundy are Back in This Blazing Sequel to The Far Side of the Stars. Violence racks Cinnabar. The fleets of the tyrannical Alliance are on the move, and at home class riots threaten to rip apart not only society but the Republic of Cinnabar Navy. Lt. Daniel Leary has earned promotion, but the needs of the Republic and the RCN require that he serve under an officer whose paranoia has already led him to execute crewmen out of hand. Signals Officer Adele Mundy has repeatedly proved her skills and loyalty as Cinnabar's most accomplished intelligence agent, but now elements within the Republic want to draw her into a conspiracy like the one that led to her parent's massacre. Leary and Mundy battle their way from riot-torn streets to spies in an outlying base and an anarchic planet where violence is the only law, but if they succeed at every stage, one test still remains: a space battle against an overwhelming Alliance force. Even for Daniel Leary it will be a difficult fight to winâ??and almost impossible to survive. At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).

Meanwhile, factions are trying to recruit Adele Mundy for a conspiracy similar to the conspiracy that caused the deaths of the whole of Adele's family. But Adele's spymaster has a mission for her that can be accomplished by going along on Daniel's new mission.
Pirate hunting should be easy. But spies and the dastardly Alliance's plans to establish a base just where Daniel has been sent, means that Daniel and Adele are in the right location to foil their plans ... if they can get their suspicious commanding officers to pay attention to them.
The story was filled with action, politics, space battles, and other exciting things. I really like both Daniel Leary and Adele Mundy who, with very different personalities, make an amazing team fighting for Cinnabar's future.
The narration was well done. The world building was excellent. Fans of space opera will enjoy this series. ( )
