<b>Praise for The Lost Stars series</b> There is one thing Jack Campbell really does very well indeed [and] it is writing space battles. They are fabulous, and there are enough here to give you a real taste of what it would be like to be up there and shot at. <i>SFcrowsnest</i> Campbell maintains the military, political, and even sexual tension with sure-handed proficiency [He] focuses on the human element: two strong, well-developed characters locked in mutual dependence, fumbling their way toward a different and hopefully brighter future. What emerges is a fascinating and vividly rendered character study, fully and expertly contextualized. <i>Kirkus Reviews </i>(starred review) Brilliant Jack Campbell runs a strong saga shown from the viewpoints of the Syndicate at a time when the vicious totalitarian military regime teeters on the brink of total collapse. <i>Genre Go Round Reviews</i>
