About this listen
Orbus continues the adventure of Captain Orbus in Neal Asher's high-octane, science fiction Spatterjay series.
A cold war is turning white hot.
Old Captain Orbus commandeered a ship to flee Spatterjay, desperate to escape the violent planet. Orbus’s alien enemy, the Prador Vrell, is also moving on. The Spatterjay virus mutated him into something even more dangerous. And he’s hunting the Prador King himself – who sought to kill him, to bury the secret of their similar transformations.
Orbus and Vrell clash in the Graveyard, a lawless zone where the Prador have seized a key space station. Official action by humanity or Prador would end peace, as a centuries-long cold war simmers. So Earth commands Orbus to destroy the station, even as the King recruits a monster to exterminate Vrell. But their actions will awaken an intelligence that annihilated civilizations, as it stirs after five million years . . .

I absolutely love this
I love this book just as much as I loved The Skinner and The Voyage of the Sable Keech. I really want to find out what other adventures Orbus, 13, Sniper and Gernard have as they did follow The Kings ship. Hopefully Asher will add to this series as there is so much potential, I love this story for a different reason then the reason I love The Skinner and Voyage of the Sable Keech. They have a more satisfying endings while this story is more about Orbus journey to sanity and to get over his past and the horror's he went through while on the way to Spatterjay and while on that planet.

Fullfilling
Amazingly constructed and complete story. Characters engage throughout and just live in the reading. The sidebars add those nuances or filling to close all the gaps.
Can’t ask for more except more

May be Neal Asher's best...
Or maybe I'm just a bit blown away, having just finished re-reading / listening to this story. I can't do decent reviews, just read or listen to this book. If you like these kind of stories, you'll love this one!

Great end to the Splatterjay series.
I wasn't excited by the premise and was doubtful of the other glowing reviews on Audible. Looking up from my meal of humble pie, I can happily say they were right and my misgivings unfounded. This was a great listen. Highly Recommended.
