About this listen

THOUGH THE BATTLE TO SAVE A PLANET IS OVER, THE WAR NEVER ENDS.

Hadrian Marlowe is newly a knight of the galaxy-spanning Sollan Empire: a hero who they say slew the alien Prince Aranata Otiolo in single combat; a man they say no man or xenobite can kill.

Acting on the Emperor’s orders, Hadrian has come to the desert planet Thagura and driven off the Cielcin invaders, rescuing in the process the Lady Gadar Malyan, Baroness of that entire world.

But not all the fighting is ended. Pockets of inhuman resistance remain on the desert world, and Hadrian the Halfmortal must soon do battle with not only the man-eating alien barbarians, but with something just as terrible: man’s own inhumanity to man.

I liked this as a short story. However it is placed as a read between book 2 and 3 but the events take place after book 3. Not that the book gives any spoilers away but definitely highlights a stage of events after Hadrians main arch. Nevertheless I enjoy it and will continue on

Good companion for the series. Nice
