About this listen

An ambitious young woman has just one chance to secure her future and reclaim her family's priceless lost artifacts in this stand-alone novel set in the world of the award-winning, New York Times bestselling Imperial Radch trilogy.

Though she knows her brother holds her mother's favor, Ingrid is determined to at least be considered as heir to the family name. She hatches an audacious plan—free a thief from a prison planet from which no one has ever returned, and use them to help steal back a priceless artifact.

But Ingray and her charge return to her home to find their planet in political turmoil, at the heart of an escalating interstellar conflict. Together, they must make a new plan to salvage Ingray's future and her world, before they are lost to her for good.

A must read for any sci-fi lover.

Ann Leckie continues to write amazing stories. I have read all of her work and I can't get enough of it. I can't wait for her next book...when ever that may be :)

All those accents!

The narrator ‘s lush voice gives a lot of texture to a marvellous “stepping in to one’s light” story that has the interwoven plots of interspecies power struggles and questions about the veracity of history. Lush voice for a lush story. Unfortunately, the narrator chooses to highlight each character with an accent that is readily identifiable from today’s planet. I’m not sure why or how all these people would come to have these particular accents. There’s no rationale for it in the book. She’s very good at it but it becomes downright annoying and distracting. Better direction needed.
