Latest entry in a hot space opera series with a huge and active base of fans. Maverick pilot Theo Waitley takes to space in a new AI-driven ship to save her lover (a powerful trading clan leader) from a creeping nano-virus that’s eating him alive.Stirring space adventure from master storytellers Sharon Lee and Steve Miller – #5 in the award-winning Liaden Universe® saga. Space ships, action, adventure – all tied together with a strong dollop of romance and intrigue – make this a compelling series for a wide range of readers, from romance to military SF lovers. First Class courier pilot Theo Waitley was already known as a nexus of violence – and then she inherited the precarious captaincy of a mysterious self-aware ship designed to serve a long dead trader. Now she has a trade route to run for Clan Korval while she convinces the near mythic ghost ship Bechimo – and herself – that she wants to commit herself as the human side to their immensely powerful symbiosis. While her former lover battles a nano-virus that's eating him alive, she's challenged to rescue hundreds of stranded pilots and crewmen from an explosive situation in near orbit around a suddenly hostile planet. Lovers, enemies, an ex-roomie, and a jealous spaceship are all in peril as Theo wields power that no one in the universe is sure of, especially her.

I enjoyed this one! Feels a bit like a Mike Shepherd or David Weber space adventure book crossed with Liad culture and mores. Looking forward to the next installment in 2013.

I like visiting this universe, but this felt a little...disjointed and unfinished. I'll definitely read the next one, but I hope it's got a little more plot to it, and a little more resolution. I'm getting tired of authors dragging things out for thousands of pages. (And that's not a dig at these au...
I just couldn't wait until September to read this story. I bought the eARC from Baen Books as soon as it was available. This was filled with excitement and intrigue but is definitely not a place for a newcomer to jump into the Liaden Universe. This is the fourth book in the Theo Waitley arc of stori...
