A.I. Destiny #5
Talisman of Tomorrow
The quest to find the Destiny Stone, is now a race to discover the Amulet of Truth.
Snark might have bitten off more than he can chew, but Jane and her team of AIs step up to provide even more military protection, while Duke Fred and his team provide some unusual diplomacy, taking the once private quest to a whole new level.
The Brotherhood’s web of corruption, deceit, and deception, spreads wider than anyone suspects, and the mysterious Brother Prime lies at the heart of the growing unrest and attacks across four sectors.
While Jamie seeks to re-join his friends from a backward planet seemingly always at war, Anna, Snark, and the Seasprite crew find the courage to take on this new challenge without him.
New skills, new friends, and new capabilities in the face of adversity, bring the quest to a final climax out on the very edge of the galaxy.
Everyone assumes the Stone combined with the Amulet, will create a powerful Talisman.
But only Jane will come to know the true power of the Talisman of Tomorrow.

(New info added at the bottom, in response to feedback and reviews.)
Timothy Ellis lives on the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia; where he constantly battles with his cat for possession of his desk chair, Daleks do guard duty, and he keeps his sonic screwdriver next to his lightsaber and wand. Now there is a female Doctor Who, he eagerly awaits the sound of the Tardis materializing in his house.
He has spent his life reading and watching science fiction and fantasy, and has been playing Space Genre computer games since he used to be smuggled in to play the original text Star Trek game on a university mainframe, long before the PC or Apple appeared. Since 2004, he's written game guides for the Egosoft X Universe series, culminating in two versions of the X3 Handbook. He has also designed major mods for the various games, and dozens of mini mods.
He has been a farm worker, Antique Dealer, Computer Programmer, Systems Analyst, Operations Manager of a small retail chain, and Retail Store Owner. He is now a full time author, who still does Spiritual Healer and helper work.
After leaving behind the corporate and business worlds, he was opened to his Spiritual gifts. Now a Feng Shui Master, Feng Shui led him to Buddhism, Karma, the Tao, and back to western spiritualism. Since 2006 he has been writing spiritual articles and helping people via spiritual forums and Facebook Groups. His spiritual books include "Personal Healing Using Basic Meditation", "Life Harmony, Feng Shui in Plain English", '101 Tips for the John of God Brazil Experience', and "The Wisdom of the Ages is available for the price of asking a question" series of 8 books. His own spiritual healing led him to writing novels.
His first novel, 'Hero at Large', spawning the long running 'The Hunter Imperium' universe, brings together his love of the space genre, magic, spirituality, and cats. Now 10 series long, the universe covers 3 galaxies, 4100 years, and as at Dragon Imperative, 62 Novels, 7 shorts, and 2 companion books. There are 7 main entrance points across 10 series: Hero at Large, Admiral of Gaia, Yesterday's Spacemage, Crossover, Midshipman Spacemage, Old Magic, and Dragon Rider. Alternate entrance points if you don't need backstory first, are Adrift and Mage King, although Dragon Rider has 3 books before it about the dragons.
If you wish to be kept up to date with new releases and information in The Hunter Legacy Universe series, subscribe here: http://eepurl.com/bqMgVz, and follow on Amazon, Goodreads, or BookBub.
The fastest way to find out about a new release is my Facebook group/page, which get advance warning about 2-4 days before release, and again when the book is uploaded to Kindle; and my email list which goes out as soon as I have an Amazon page for the new book. Bookbub will let you know about 3-4 days after I remember to tell them.
I normally will release in advance of the specified release date whenever possible, so if you are a Kindle Unlimited reader, you will want another method to be notified of the actual release date, so you can read on day 1.

Only my opinion
I think you are a child at heart Mr. Ellis. The AI series have a youthful vibe, and an innocence to the story line.

Another great story!
It’s really cool seeing the history developing as I am doing catch-up reading…
Great action and characters dialogue was good.

Wow
Lots of cross purposes in this plot. The threads aren't always obvious and the saving tech is magical. New species with different views and similar fighting methods.

Worthiness
Are Anna and Jamie worthy to be the holders of the talisman? I like the action, humor, morality and likeability of the characters. There are major and minor plot lines. The quest is the major line but Queen Jane's support and encompassing vision is another. Other minor lines surround various characters and races. I look forward to the next book, "Leader Jane".

It is an okay book and I do love the genre. But I felt that it lacked something. I never did really get to the point where I cared about the people in the story. It didn't grabbed my attention.
