About this listen

A mission failed... A civilization on the edge of collapse... A dangerous alliance to save it...

Colonel Mitchell "Ares" Williams has never been one to accept failure. While the outcome on Liberty is a crushing setback to his and the Riggers' chances of salvaging the war, there's no time to waste on regret. After all, the mission wasn't a total loss, delivering an unexpected asset in the wake of their defeat - Liun Tio, aka the Knife, a notorious warlord and enemy of the Alliance whose deep-seated mistrust of artificial intelligence and control over what may be the largest free fleet in the galaxy have made him the most important man alive.

If humanity is going to have a chance to survive the Tetron onslaught, Ares and the Knife will need to find a way to work together. But can the two learn to trust one another enough to bring the power of their joint forces to bear against a common enemy? Or will their fragile alliance crumble beneath the weight of personal motives and divergent goals?

As Mitchell and the Riggers will soon discover, the knife's edge cuts both ways.

Ok follow up. Bit slow

Need to go a bit faster as it took the whole book to get to the point. Liked it but not sure I’ll buy the next one

great imaginative sci fi

there are no actual aliens in this future......just the consequences of human work....AI gone awol. I think issac assimov is one of this authours heroes. nice to see a different take on time travel and the author doesn't get bogged down in explanations. each book in this series leaves you hanging out for the next installment
