Synopsis

The battle for the unification and rule of the Far Stars Confederation will be decided in Jay Allan's exhilarating third and final book in the swashbuckling space saga, The Far Stars, begun with Shadow of Empire and Enemy in the Dark.The Far Stars stands on the edge of a precipice. The forces of Governor Vos have surged forth, conquering worlds and imposing the emperor’s brutal rule over millions. Only one thing stands in the way of total victory: Marshal Augustin Lucerne and his newly created Confederation. Vos has a simple plan: assassinate the marshal, and manipulate his generals to fight over his legacy, destroying each other in the process.But another threat lurks: Arkarin Blackhawk. The smuggler and mercenary has been the marshal’s ally, working in the shadows and unraveling Vos’ plans. The governor can only hope the mysterious adventurer continues to resist a formal position in the Confederation.Or he can have Blackhawk assassinated, too.Because with Blackhawk succeeding Lucerne, the black and gold imperial flags will be stained red with blood. For his is a dark and dangerous past, and if he is put at the helm of the Confederation armies, the brutal imperial general he once had been may rise once again.The Far Stars are facing the final battle. The Imperials seem unstoppable. But if Blackhawk somehow survives—and can come to grips with the horror deep within him—he just might be able to save the Far Stars from the iron hand of empire.

So, Arkarin Blackhawk used to be a really, really bad guy. He was an Imperial General no less, known then as Frigus Umbra. Now how did our author come up with a name like that? Well, it is Latin and if you look up the meaning of “Frigus” it will say it means “cold, cold weather or frost”. That prett......more

Goodreads review by Michael on September 03, 2019

The Far Stars, broken and beaten by the Empire's Governor Vos, are prime for a little revolution. Arkarin Blackhawk is sliding back into his Frigus Umbra persona to lead the battle against the Empire's forces. A cold, cruel taskmaster with no empathy for lesser men, Frigus went to war with Governor V......more

Another great series by Jay Allan The author finishes the last book in his far stars series. As always he leaves his readers wanting more.

Goodreads review by Kenneth on November 12, 2019

Maybe my disinterest in the characters and plot is related to the fact that I hadn’t read the first two installments of the trilogy, but I never connected with Blackhawk (or Frigus Umbra, I wish he’s make up his mind on what to call himself.) The world-building was stale, as I never got a clear pict......more
