Panoply is a small, efficient police force, dedicated to maintaining the rule of democracy among the ten thousand disparate city states orbiting the planet Yellowstone.

Ingvar Tench was one of Panoply's most experienced operatives. So why did she walk alone and virtually unarmed into a habitat with a vicious grudge against her organisation?

As his colleagues pick up the pieces, Dreyfus must face his conscience. Four years ago, when an investigation linked to one of his most dangerous adversaries got a little too personal, Dreyfus arranged for Tench to continue the enquiry by proxy.

In using her - even though he had his reasons - did Dreyfus also put her in the line of fire?

And what does Tench's misadventure tell him about an enemy he had hoped was dormant?

The ending could have been better. But overall pretty enjoyable. The book builds on top of previous books

Pretty good overall performance.

While the Revelation Space trilogy was really good, I felt it was bloated and boring at times. The Prefect stories have better pacing and this installment is in my opinion the best of them. Thank you Mr. Reynolds.

It was a long, interesting and twisting road. The ending was unexpected but also a little bit jarring, and i am not sure it was wholly in character. That being said Alistair Reynolds builds interesting worlds, deep and surprising characters and excellent action and suspense. I look forward to reading the main "Revelation Space" series.

And so it ended

I keep being surprised. What a great story for a third installment. Hopefully we will hear something again from Tom Dreyfus....

Another master piece
