This novel temporarily concludes the Lost Era series and it is safe to say that we were really waiting for it.
Finally a decent novel that succeed in mixing sci-fi with action in a Star Trek adventure that can stand up to the classics.

The length of the novel is enough to encompass more than one storyline without letting them unconnected.
The reader can find interesting margin notes directly from the author on http://home.fuse.net/ChristopherLBennett/BuriedAgeAnnot…
