Entropy's End

Entropy's End Targon Tales - Sethran 2

Chris Reher2015
Ships are disappearing in subspace. Traders, rebels, pirates, and even military vessels are losing their way in the Big Nothing that makes space travel possible. Deep-cover agent Sethran Kada joins the investigation after his own navigator, Ciela, barely escapes the void with her mind intact. It soon becomes clear that this subspace trap is more than some natural phenomenon, Seth’s search for answers leads him to a brutal penal colony on the brink of revolt, and uncovers a plot to destroy an entire planet. When evidence points to the return of the dangerous subspace entities known as Dyads, Air Command mobilizes to annihilate the threat at any cost. Seth and Ciela pursue a Dyad who has infiltrated a key research complex where they discover that the inexorable subspace peril will not just threaten a single planet. It will mean the end of interstellar travel and destroy their Commonwealth civilization.

Actual rating: 3.798995957 stars. ✔ Fact #1: Graphic Design Hell (GDH™) some book covers should go straight to. ✔ Fact #2: By its cover a book thou shalt not judge (view spoiler)[unless it’s this type of cover, in which case you are most welcome to trust absolutely fishing not (hide spoiler)]. ✔ Fact #3: Ha. ✔ Fact #4: No, this is not the mostest profoundest story I have ever read. But bloody shrimping entertaining indeed it is. Also, Super Extra Fast Paced (SEFP™) the plot is. Also also, much delightfully stimulating action to be had there is. Also also also, quite rich and intriguing and original the world building is. Ergo, lusciously pleased by all this I am a little. Maybe. ✔ Fact #5: When I first started reading this trilogy, I badly wanted to kidnap adopt roguish-as-fish Sethran Kada. Then I set my nefarious sights on his scrumptious, non-organic parasite symbiote, Khoe. (The fact that I might have maybe wanted to perhaps be Kada’s very organic symbiote at some point had obviously nothing to do with this.) “What about now,” you kindly ask? Why now I’m Machiavellianly zooming in on Kada’s edible-as-shrimp Delphian navigator, Ciela of the supercalifragilisticexpialidocious mental abilities and (most importantly) Super Extra Cool Natural Deep Blue Hair (SECNDBH™). So Poof Gone Harem and stuff. ✔ Fact #6: I feel like dancing all of a sudden. Please bare bear shrimp with me and stuff. Yes, my moves are super smooth and sexey despite my old age. Can’t help it, I was born that way. ➽ Nefarious Last Words (NLW™): Come to an end most unfortunately this Light Yet Refreshingly Titillating Trilogy (LYRTT™) has. But more books set in this world Chris Reher has most fortunately written, so a slight chance that utter doom and despair await me not there might be. Perhaps. • Book 1: Quantum Tangle ★★★★ • Book 2: Terminus Shift ★★★ [Pre-review nonsense] Super Extra Condensed Review (SECR™) to come and stuff. Why don't you people have a little party while you anxiously wait for me to write it and stuff? Oooh, you Little Barnacles sure know how to have a good time, don't you?
