A powerful piece of SF, with intelligent writing and big ideas

Rollicking pace, rapidly developing stakes . . . A fun, fast-paced
epic that science fiction fans will gobble up
*Kirkus Reviews*
The skills honed in his YA fantasy series, Inheritance, are on full
display here in his vibrant world building, especially in the
mythology of the alien tech. Paolini populates this universe with a
large cast of interesting and relatable characters . . . lending
the story a sincere emotional depth. Highly recommended for fans of
James A. Corey's The Expanse series and for fantasy fans willing to
try space opera
