-Booklife, by Publishers Weekly. After the events of Aurora Ascending, peace settled in the Orion Arm; however, when ships sent to explore the Pillars of Creation in the Eagle Nebula, located in the Sagittarius Arm of the galaxy, begin to disappear, Elliot and his team uncover a deadly threat: automated defensive drones capable of destroying entire fleets. To make matters worse, the AI controlling these drones has decided that humanity must be eradicated. Elliot has been chosen to lead the combined military forces of the Aetherian Empire, Canopan Empire, Rigellian Alliance, and unaligned planets against the new threat. These spherical drones, armed with free-electron lasers of devastating power and efficiency, have destroyed every ship sent to investigate their stronghold. When they begin to construct an extermination fleet to wipe out humanity, the stakes couldn't be higher. As Elliot and his allies prepare for a desperate assault on the Sagittaron stronghold, one of their own betrays them. Hailey Link, a humaniform android created using Aetherian and Canopan technology, steals a captured Sagittaron sphere and embarks on a seemingly reckless mission. With the fate of the Orion arm resting on Elliot's shoulders and overwhelming odds against them, can they overcome the Sagittaron threat before it's too late? And what is Hailey's true objective? Ideue's fondness for vintage SF effectively generates a conventionful of references that call to mind Babylon 5, assorted Star Trek shows, the SF novels of James P. Hogan and H.G. Wells, and J.R.R. Tolkien's work, among other tales.
-Kirkus Reviews for Aurora Ascending. Prince Consort Lys Calt and Willa Greyjoy are tasked with navigating the intricate politics of their respective empires. Meanwhile, Admiral MacDougan and young Syn Calt, the heir to the Canopan throne, are focused on developing new technologies and strategies to support their fight. In this thrilling space opera sequel to Aurora Ascending, the fate of humanity hangs in the balance, and our only hope rests with a troubled, lovesick android girl. It's a story bringing to mind Alita: Battle Angel and The Last Starfighter. Bursting with high-stakes action, old and new feuds, a dash of romance, a diverse array of perspective characters, and the machinations of corrupt Artificial Intelligence, this spirited sequel centers on an exciting battle of man and machine while developing ongoing stories and themes seeded in the first volume.
