Erebus

~ Nancy E. Shaffer

By Ralph Kern

Disappointing. In the first book, Endeavor, Kern had exploration, new worlds, and mysterious ancient alien intelligences whose stories I was eager to learn about. In this book, we see a solar-system spanning society of our future, and an exciting, mysterious chase across varied star systems.

And it all ends with evil, genocidal aliens with the usual lack of motive? Yawn.
