Summary
Dakota and Corso discover not only that the Shoal are caught in an aeons-long conflict with a rival star-faring species, but that the Bandati have resolved to make an alliance with this race by giving them deadly knowledge acquired from the Magi starship; forging an unholy alliance with the Shoal-member Trader. Dakota is determined to stop them - but the destruction of millions of inhabited worlds appears inevitable.

Loving this series of books.
I don't know how I stumbled across Gary Gibson but I am glad I did. Book 2 of the Shoal story starts slow - much too slow for me - but once it picks up it rarely let's up. The characters are real and I can easily see them as they talk. The story, the whole premise, is engaging and intriguing. I normally alternate books between sci-fi and something different, it help stop my sci-fi merging into one, but I am tempted to go straight on..... Really enjoyed it.

A pretty good sequel.
Enjoyed this book; if the story ends there that would be okay but it's open enough to continue in into a third book. I'd be up for another book if it was written.
Performance was very good.

Enjoyable second book in series
I have a love hate relationship with the narrator. She is perfect for the Dakota the main character and excellent for the narrative and okay for many of the aliens. She is less stilted with the male characters but still doesn't pull it off.
The story continues with Dakota swept along in the tide of events and trying her best to survive. Unlike many other space war novels the battles here tend to be intimate and up close as opposed to vast armadas in space which keeps you interested and rooting for Dakota.
All in all a good listen and the second novel ends well with the setup for the third.

First Rate Read!
A most exciting opening to a series!
Great concepts and a rich tapestry crossing the galaxy!
The characters are well developed and definitely good fun.
Without doubt the narrator does a great job bringing the characters to life.
Good fun, thought provoking, exciting and with every possibility of a long running series.
Take a gamble, you'll love this one!
