Summary

History holds many secrets. The frontier holds many shadows.

One ship may damn all mankind. One ship may save them.

In a bold and brazen act of treachery, the Royal Martian Navy exploratory cruiser Rose was stolen and is now in the hands of the conspiracy group known as Nemesis. Guilty of a thousand crimes, Nemesis and its leader, Kent Riley, are determined to find proof of the alien threat they have secretly been preparing humanity to face.

Set in pursuit by the Mage-Queen of Mars herself, Mage-Captain Roslyn Chambers commands Rose's sister ship, Thorn, in a chase that brings her to the far reaches of the galaxy. Her orders are clear: bringing Nemesis to justice and, if at all possible, prevent them from waking a sleeping beast.

Riley will find the enemy at any cost. Chambers will stop him. Among lost worlds and ancient crimes, the secrets of the past both seek may mean nothing—or everything.

A new beginning or something else?

As a recent new listener to this author I must say that the storytelling is engaging and this new are is making me want to pre order the next one already.
Magic and space is a great combination.

Good story, but the mono-tone narration made it harder to listen to.

A good story, rather let down by strange voices from the narrator. All the voices come across as rather robotic and flat, lacking warm and tone. The story starts off very busily, with a lot of names from previous books. It's a while since I visited any of the previous stories, so it took me a few chapters to get a grip on what was going on. Once I was in though, the story took off and was good.
