Publisher's Summary

"I gulped down Ballistic in one long read, staying awake half the night, and now I want the next one!" (George R. R. Martin)

There is a personal price to pay for having aligned with the wrong side in a reckless war. For Aden Jansen it's the need to adopt a new identity while keeping his past hidden. Now he's integrated himself aboard the Zephyr, a merchant ship smuggling critical goods through dangerous space. But danger is imminent on planet Gretia, as well. Under occupation, torn between postwar reformers and loyalists, it's a polestar for civil unrest.

Meanwhile an occupation forces officer is pulled right back into the fray when the battle alarm is raised, an ambitious heiress is entangled in a subversive political conspiracy, and an Allied captain is about to meet the enemy head-on.

As Aden discovers, the insurgents on Gretia - and in space - are connected, organized, and ready to break into full-scale rebellion. History is threatening to repeat itself. It's time that Aden rediscovers who he is, whom he can trust, and what he must fight for now.

Great second book.

I was hesitant about this book, not because I did not think the book itself was going to be amazing but because of the change in narrator. It was a bit different at first, then you just get into the book and it doesn't matter. I was left at the end of the book wanting the third one right away, sigh but I have preordered it for October. I am looking at it like a Halloween gift. The character development is just amazing.

New narrator?! Boo!

Another great story though. Amazing world building. Seems to leading up to something great. First two books hang together well, except for the change in Narrator, who's nowhere near as strong
