From AudioFile:

The Saga of the Seven Suns seems to have an endless number of characters. Jumping into the series with this volume, the next to last, may prove daunting, although the author does include detailed background that provides some orientation before the battles begin anew. David Colacci is a skillful narrator and guide through the multi-layered story of political intrigue, deception, and attempts to annihilate one enemy or another. He provides continuity with the prior installments and the many returning characters. His steady presentation remains smooth as subplots wrap around each other. Further, his affinity for the characters is evident and helps to bring these galactic adventures down to a ̉humanÓ level.
