Description

The day starts like any other, venturing into spider-bear territory to rescue Bennie’s sister. Turns out there’s a lot of space that the Peacekeepers don’t go near, go figure spider-bear territory is on that list. And that’s just the start of their adventure. Things get interesting, quick! By interesting, I mean horrifying of course. Their old friend Xarrix calls with a job. A job that sounds straightforward and easy. That should have been their first clue. With nothing else on their plates, the crew of the Ghost finds themselves in a sector of space deemed “untamable” by the Galactic Commonwealth, working with a warlord with some pretty big plans. That should have been the second clue. Too bad none of the crew are detectives. Learning from his past dealings with the crew of the Ghost, Xarrix assigns one of his own to stay aboard the Ghost to keep an eye on the crew and make sure they behave themselves as if that was possible. What’s worse is it’s someone the team knows and don’t particularly like. And then there are the space battles and grilled cheese.

    I can’t convey the appreciation I have for John and these stories he’s created. I’m not much of a reader but I can’t seem to turn from my screen once I’ve opened these books. I hope you continue to create stories and I hope more people will support your efforts.

    A very good imagination coming from a human writer. The book follows the adventures of the first human to leave his solar system. An excellent read and I look forward to reading the next book!

    Impressive tale. This is the third part of some pretty addictive reading. A bit of Guardians of the Galaxy, a bit of Star Trek, a bit of this and that, all blended into an entertaining plot. Underlying it all, a sense of love and respect for fellow beings, both large and round, big or small, green or metallic. A fun feel good novel that’d make into a great movie some day. And to the author: You threw me. I expected Cynthia would take over the Cartel and go legit, turning into Will’s on and off again flame. I’m looking forward to Part 4, just to see how this new dynamic works out.

    Enjoyed the book, especially the human sayings that I grew up with and still hear them today, the crew does live up to the title of toques. I liked a little humor,
