About this listen
The Raider clans have been defeated, and their planet is under the supervision of the Riss, with Captain Reese the station commander. But while Reese sees the Raider clans as on probation, many in the SAS task force she commands perceive them as prisoners and hope to break the Treaty and get revenge.
As Nadya attempts to maintain the fragile peace, the three empires are being invaded. They know the invading force is far more technologically advanced than the SAS. But who are they, where did they come from, and what do they want?
One thing appears certain. The SAS cannot defeat the aliens alone. But can they overcome their prejudices against the Riss, hatred of the clans, and long years of distrust of the other empires to combine forces and technology to meet the challenge? The fate of the three empires, Riss, and the Raider clans may depend on it.

Story
Growing up, Travis Uriah Long yearned for order and discipline in his life...he two things his neglectful mother couldn’t or wouldn’t provide. So when Travis enlisted in the Royal Manticoran Navy, he thought he’d finally found the structure he’d always wanted so desperately. But life in the RMN isn’t exactly what he expected. Boot camp is rough and frustrating; his first ship assignment lax and disorderly; and with the Star Kingdom of Manticore still recovering from a devastating plague, the Navy is possibly on the edge of budgetary extinction.

Earth is conquered. Sol is lost. One ship is tasked to free them. One Captain to save them all. When an alien armada destroys the United Earth Space Force and takes control of the human homeworld, newly reinstated Captain Annette Bond must take her experimental hyperspace cruiser Tornado into exile as Terra's only interstellar privateer. She has inferior technology, crude maps, and no concept of her enemy, but the seedy underbelly of galactic society welcomes her so long as she has prizes to sell and money to spend.

Story
In the 25th century, humans have conquered space. The advent of faster-than-light travel has opened up hundreds of habitable planets for colonization, and humans have exploited the virtually limitless space and resources for hundreds of years with impunity. So complacent have they become with the overabundance that armed conflict is a thing of the past, and their machines of war are obsolete and decrepit. What would happen if they were suddenly threatened by a terrifying new enemy?

Story
Boss loves to dive historical ships, derelict spacecraft found adrift in the blackness between the stars. Sometimes she salvages for money, but mostly she's an active historian. She wants to know about the past--to experience it firsthand. Once she's dived the ship, she'll either leave it for others to find or file a claim so that she can bring tourists to dive it as well. It's a good life for a tough loner, with more interest in artifacts than people.

not just a cliffhanger!
loved all in series thus far, however leaving this one where you did gives me no choice... the author has created planetary system where humans carry their prejudices hundreds of years into the future but by not learning from the effects they've had in the past, can agian destroy them.. love many of the characters from captian Reese, the riss and the gypsy clan captian, whom I know will captian a rise cruiser and help save us all.. soooo! I'm off to the next book filled with anticipation and excitement which is in and of itself worth every penny! this is the first series I've listened to that has it all, story, characters, narration, and emotion.. Reese is one of the best built characters I've experienced in a very long time.. I want to not only know her but I wish to bond with a Riss..lol

Teaches a good lesson
I think this story is so interesting because it gives the listener the whole sci-fi aspect which I believe is told very well. However, I think the greater part of this story is the lesson it teaches about how we as human beings treat someone different. Well worth the buy.
