PSI Wars #3
Imperium
They thought the war was over…the enemy had other ideas.
Two years after the end of the Psi War, Caleb Mitchell is Emperor in all but name, leading his armies on a crusade to cleanse the colony worlds and Earth itself of the last of the psionic madmen known as the Changed.
But the citizens of the Commonwealth weren’t the only ones devastated by the war; the criminal cartels in the Pirate Worlds are in chaos, their trade cut off, their resources running out.
A young warlord named Amos Dobrev rises up to unite the cartels into a union they call the Syndicate. He builds an army of psionic supermen and tries to carve out his own kingdom among the former Commonwealth colonies.
Dobrev says they are only doing what they have to do to survive. Mitchell considers Dobrev a threat who needs to be put down before he destroys everything that’s left.
And caught in the middle is Randall Munroe, Mitchell’s right-hand man, trying to decide whether the bigger threat is an outlaw Syndicate…or the power of Cal Mitchell’s Imperium.

September 9, 2023Far too much written for what was needed. Feel in this book it was more bought getting a large enough book. The whole story could be have been done in two not three books. The ending left it open to restart the story with the same characters not a good plan.

Excellent
"Psi Wars 3: Imperium" ties all the loose ends of the Drop Trooper Series to a fitting ending. This isn't the ending but a new beginning.

And so the journey continues
There is something charming about reading a series by the same author over years and having it well enough written that the reader can actually recall previous characters as they show up. This story did reach a stopping point, but there was an epilogue tacked on that promised even more drastic drama. Not sure my heart can take it. The only thing I missed was a larger role for the family interactions which I hope can be better manifested in the next few books.
