Summary
Not only are Campion and Purslane late for their 30-second reunion but they have also brought along an amnesiac golden robot for a guest. But the wayward shatterlings get more than the scolding they expect: they face the discovery that someone has a very serious grudge against the Gentian line, and there is a very real possibility of traitors in their midst. The surviving shatterlings have to dodge exotic weapons while they regroup to try to solve the mystery of who is persecuting them and why---before their ancient line is wiped out of existence forever.

breathtaking storytelling
I had to get used to the narrator but he completely won me over. The story is one of the absolute best I have heard or read. Characters well developed. Fantastic.

Way to go !
I simply don't believe it ! I am in awe and an unrepentant fan, the scope of his imagination, the characters, in this case a love story spanning time and space, a great yarn that spins its way across millions of years and takes as read sci-fi staples, held me rapt and delighted.

Perfect combo of story and narrator
Loved the longer descriptions of places, persons and environments coupled with the narration of John Lee. Plot was super interesting, and might be a spoiler:

I loved the idea of creating a universe without ftl, and how that would practically be like for humans

Epic, Intelligent, and Rollicking
Alastair Reynolds writes really entertaining space opera, crammed full of high concept ideas, and also manages to people his stories with believable, fleshed-out characters.
The narrator does a good job of differentiating the large cast.
Very good!
