Alisa, Leonidas, Dr. Dominguez, Yumi and Mica continue their journey to the starseer temple with the usual chaos that follows them everywhere. It was nice to see a bit more about Yumi's relationship with her mother, and the relationship between Leonidas and Alisa continues to simmer and seems to become even more blatant with both parties aware of it now.

I wouldn't call any of the Fallen Empire books exactly serious. They're a fun filled romp through space, and this one doesn't break that trend. The characters are fun, filled with personality, and have a life outside a single one of their numbers motivation.

My only complaint would be that the book does feel almost two similar to the others in the series, and while I had a break between the previous two and this one, you might feel a bit of story fatigue if you read them in quick succession.

My final word is that if you liked the previous books, and wanted more of the same, you'll love this.
