Once you get into it (I found it hard to start) it is a very interesting and compelling read. The novel is full of interesting turns and a bit of a cliff hanger leading to the next in the series.

The next book Shattered Pillars is definitely added to me reading list.

This-this was how Empires ended. With the flitting of wild dogs in the dark and a caravan of moons going dark one by one.

I absolutely loved his book, would highly recommend the read.
