About this audiobook
Fourteen years have passed since he was framed for theft to cover up an imperial atrocity, and disgraced military officer Thracius "Tracy" Belmanor has built a new life for himself. Living under an assumed name as the captain of a small trading vessel crewed primarily by aliens, he and his crew engage in both legal and illegal deals just under the radar of the Solar League authorities.
At the other end of the social hierarchy, Princess Mercedes de Arango has her own problems-the major one being the lack of an heir. Meanwhile her philandering husband Boho Cullen has ably proved the problem isn't him. With rumors of a coup swirling around the throne, Mercedes makes the desperate decision to undertake a military campaign and gain her people's allegiance through a victory. But when things go badly wrong and her future lies in the hands of the man she betrayed, Tracy has a choice to make-can he ever forgive her?

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Though not as painful as the second book of the Imperials series, this is really a sparse 2/3 of a book with a few vignettes to reach a specific end. It's seems more calculated than felt, and what I mostly felt was either like hitting the characters over the head or hoping the aliens would wipe them all out.
