Defy the inevitable. Such is the stance of Confederation captain Eric Weston and the crew of the starship Odysseus, patrolling the outer limits of Priminae space, anticipating the Empire’s next attacks. Connected with the Terran FTL tech—the transition drive—humanity might stand a chance against the overwhelming forces. Until the entire planetary system goes dark.

Outnumbered and outgunned, the Odysseus arrives to find the Empire securing critical intelligence from Priminae ships—data that could prove disastrous in the wrong hands.

As the Odysseus enters the fray, the ship’s systems exhibit increasingly chaotic glitches, while haunting apparitions stalk the crew. As they struggle to control their own ship—and their sanity—against the tide of battle, how can they hope to grasp victory when the Odysseus itself appears to be coming to life?

About the Author

Bestselling Canadian author Evan Currie’s imagination knows no limits, and he uses his talent and passion for storytelling to take readers everywhere from ancient Rome to the dark expanses of space. Although he started out dabbling in careers such as computer science and the local lobster industry, Evan quickly determined that writing the kinds of stories he grew up loving was his true life’s calling. Beginning with the techno-thriller Thermals, Evan has expanded the universe within his mind with acclaimed series such as Warrior’s Wings, the Scourwind Legacy, the Hayden War Cycle, and Odyssey One. He delights in pushing the boundaries of technology and culture, exploring the ways in which these forces intertwine and could shape the future of humanity both on Earth and among the stars.

Weakest book by this author

Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2017

Verified Purchase

This was Evan's weakest book to date. Spoilers ahead- be warned...

I've been a fan of Evan Currie ever since I randomly stumbled upon his first space opera series, the Hayden's War. Since then, I've read pretty much every book by him, including all of the Haydens War series and this series, the Odyssey One. This book was set up perfect in the previous book to both answer a number of question and probably leave one asking a few more... and it starts out in a similar way, which is no problem it all- the setup is great and making you want more, but, in the end, this entire book is one long and somewhat inconsequential battle, with no one really learning any new information on either side. this Empire doesn't get Earth's secrets, and Earth (and the Primmies) haven't learned much of anything more about this empire... There's a lot of building about this gestalt that is inhabiting the ship, and is revealed at the end of the novel- yet, It was more or less revealed at the end of the previous book, making all this buildup rather silly. I really wish Evan had gone into more detail about this gestalt (or whatever it is) at the beginning of the book and had the captain reacting to it throughout the battle- would have honestly been more entertaining. Additionally, The battle just went on for too long- It should have been far shorter, and I would have loved to have seen more from the Empire's Elder's POV, Earth and Primmy leader's POVs and to see the Odysseus and her small fleet begin to reciprocate this Empire and actually probe their borders (and consequently make them seem like the have a greater reach than they do). Finally, there was a lot made out of the super structures found in previous books including the entire side novel about one of them, yet they weren't even mentioned in this newest novel, yet were set up to be a proper interesting (yet hopefully not too deus ex machina) part of the solution to this otherwise very unbalanced match up between Earth/Prim and the Empire...

tl:dr this book had a lot of potential, but failed to live up to previous excellent novels.

Not a book - just a fight scene.

Reviewed in the United States on December 14, 2017

This book appears to be the other half of the book the author forgot to write when he published "The Warrior King". It contains no plot arc. It contains no character growth. It spends maybe 20 pages on character development, and the final 300 pages on one long, drawn out space battle. The writing was good, which is why I'm giving it two stars rather than one, but when the author seems to forget half of the ships involved in a massive fleet engagement, it's hard to believe they spent a lot of time plotting the story out. We do get to find out that a major character misses piloting a fighter. That's something I suppose. I just wish the author had actually DONE something with that character moment instead of wasting it.
I don't mind long space battles either - I really like them when they're well executed. This one was not. It was like watching a bunch of eight year-olds play starfleet battles, get bored, pick up the capital ships and make pew-pew noises at each other while bragging about how powerful their ships are. The ships held by the less aggressive kids are ignored, while the overly aggressive bragging kids can take thousands of hits from hundreds of lasers that can destroy planets while continuing to dish out the golden rays of justice and righteousness.

The first three books in this series had me really hoping I had a new favorite space opera / military Sci Fi author. The last three books have crushed those hopes.

Reviewed in the United States on December 12, 2017

I'm a huge fan of Evan Currie, the original Odyssey One series (first 4 books) was probably the best series I've read in this genre in a long time. While the new Imperial story Arc was good, I just feel it didn't live up to the first 4 books.

In the first four books the "Terrans" were clearly the underdog, with unreliable allies, against overwhelming odds, and ultimately, winning by basically risking it all. It was also a very "clean" kind of story - good vs. an enemy as close to pure evil as possible. You can get behind the wholesale destruction of such an enemy with enthusiasm.

This new story arc is far more conventional and at the same time, far more nuanced. The Imperials makes for a much more complex enemy, deserving a richer, more complete back story. Yet I fear Mr. Currie have sacrificed a little too much in plot and story development in order to maintain suspense. A lot was said in this new addition, yet not much is given.

This is pretty much a straight up large scale space battle. It was a thrilling, action packed book to be sure. But there's only so much you can get into the weapon systems, the ships capabilities, and battle tactics, and even CQB before it starts to feel repetitive and dragged out.

While I eagerly awaits book 7 (This is still my all time favorite series, with Silver Wings a close second), I hope Mr. Currie will take the book (and the series) in a direction that focus more on plot and character developments. Many lingering mysteries should also be push forward as well - Example: The Imperials were introduced way back in book 2, yet we still knows very little abut them, nor their relationship / back story with the other factions in the book.

How? How? How?

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 6, 2018

I have enjoyed all the previous books and was really looking forward to this release. Sadly I can't for the life of me remember a more disappointing read.
The story just stalled. Almost a carbon copy of the previous book but with some horrendous scene setting.
I suppose if you love detail about running around a broken ship...
There are so many things wrong that i don't have the energy to write them all up.

A great story well worth the time

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 19, 2017

I thought it was a short book as it did not take long to finish. But it was just so good I could not put down. If you are looking at this thinks of getting it I couldn't recommend a better book or series of author. you will be gripped by the story and longing for the next book. Now the long wait for the next book .

Enjoyable, but overpriced for the size of the book

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 22, 2018

Verified Purchase

Good enjoyable space battle, but hardly anything else. Book was too short for any plot development, and all we have is one battle. It feels like this was part of a book, rather than a whole book. Hopefully Mr Currie will start writing longer books like the start of this series or else he will loose his followers.

A great space opera

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 16, 2017

Now we need the next volume in the growing saga......and it will be a long tedious wait I suppose. Ho hum.

The pace is definitely picking up now with more characters appearing - some a surprise too - and the plot complexity increasing too. The usual crew are still here, still at war, still surprising each other with unusual thoughts and actions....but I’ll leave that to you to read about.
