About this ebook
"A hard-charging opener to a promising, if bloody, space-opera series." —KIRKUS
Centuries after Earth was rendered an uninhabitable wasteland, humanity was forced from its homeworld and founded the Kepler Circuit, a string of colonies throughout the solar system. These settlements provide resources to the remnants of humankind, the most important resource being the newly discovered element—Gravitum—found only in the Earth’s unstable mantle.
But a powerful religious faction known as the New Earth Tribunal has risen to preside over most of the Circuit. Though there is barely a faction left to challenge them, a string of attacks on the Tribunal’s freighters causes them to suspect their mortal enemies, the Ceresians, of foul play.
Tasked with solving the problem is Sage Volus: Tribunal Executor. Spy.
Sage quickly infiltrates the ranks of a roguish, Ceresian mercenary named Talon Rayne, seeking to discover the truth behind the attacks, but the longer she works amidst Talon and his squad, the more she finds her faith in the Tribunal tested.
While her quest for answers only unearths more questions, a new threat is on the rise, and it plans to bring down the Tribune once and for all.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Imagine a Star Wars style universe, but where women are treated as sex objects by everyone, including the author. Other than the gender issues in this book this was a fun read, but I can't imagine Princess Leah accepting the sort of treatment that similar women in this book tolerate without comment. The sci-fi parts of this story were great, but these sexual interactions seemed like they were just a teenage boy's sexy fantasies squished into the pages of a sci-fi novel. At a few points the author seems at least aware of the awful status his female characters have, but there is never any explanation as to how humanity got from our mostly egalitarian ideals to the mess of his book world. Had this issue been addressed this would have been a much stronger story.
(I received my copy of this book free in exchange for a fair review.)
