"Even better than Sun of Suns. Venera Fanning is a great character. I'm naming my first daughter after her and my first son after Karl Schroeder.

"Amazing book, great world building. A little bit of poorly written trashy sex in there, but it hardly marred this masterpiece. This is getting me back into hard sci-fi.

"Very different from the other Virga books. Excellent, though unusual. It's odd having the "main" character change from book to book in a series.

"Good way to wrap up the series! I really enjoyed this one, Holt kept it funny, action packed, and convoluted as always. The plot wasn't quite as tangled as the last one, and I think that's a good thing. Great series, I recommend it.
