About this listen

The stunning conclusion to the trilogy that began with the Hugo, Nebula, and Arthur C. Clarke Award-winning Ancillary Justice.

For just a moment, things seem to be under control for the soldier known as Breq. Then a search of Atheok Station's slums turns up someone who shouldn't exist - someone who might be an ancillary from a ship that's been hiding beyond the empire's reach for three thousand years.

In the meantime, a messenger from the alien and mysterious Presger empire arrives, as does Breq's enemy, the divided and quite possibly insane Anaander Mianaai - ruler of an empire that's at war with itself.

Anaander is heavily armed and extremely unhappy with Breq. She could take her ship and crew and flee, but that would leave everyone at Athoek in terrible danger. Breq has a desperate plan. The odds aren't good, but that's never stopped her before.

I have now finished the series and I think overall I did enjoy it, Might listen to it again in a few weeks, there are still some aspects of the story I don't quite understand.. But I am not disappointed overall the story Arc is really great

Eventually Not Confused

If you liked the previous 2 books, you will certainly have no doubts if to listen to this one as well. It's as good as they come.

At last I stopped to care who has which gender. SHE got me used to it with HER insistence. lol

And I do love the Fleet Captain - like everyone else - I can't help myself. :)

I can't say though that I liked the very end that much, was a bit weird for me... (I'm too much of a ..., I guess - you'll understand "who" when you listen to it), but it worked.

Nevertheless if there would be a continuum to this, Audible would do good to let us know! And I think I would be willing to give a chance to any other book from this author!

The performer was simply amazing!

Continues as great as in previous part

This is one of those series of books that spoils you.
After listing to other books I yearn for the quality and refinement of Leckie's writing and Andoh amazing performance.

Brilliant, sad to see it end

A perfect performance of a remarkable story. I was almost distracted by how well the two worked - separately and together

Just stunning
