The planet Hellhole, ram shackled by an ancient asteroid impact, it is populated by the hardiest and most desperate colonists. It is one of fifty-four remote frontier worlds forced to pay tribute to the corrupt Constellation, which is ruled by decadent nobles. An exiled rebel general, Tiber Adolphus, was tough enough to keep his colony alive on Hellhole, and he has now mounted a second rebellion against the Constellation, much larger than his earlier failed attempt.
General Adolphus rallies his fellow rebels from across the vast Deep Zone to fight for their independence, while the ruthless leader of the Constellation, Diadem Michella, vows to eliminate the rebellion and all colonists on Hellhole.
As a barrage of deadly asteroids hurtles toward Hellhole, and the Constellation’s gigantic space fleet arrives for a final engagement against General Adolphus, the hardy settlers are caught between a human enemy that wants to demolish their colony and much more powerful aliens who can destroy not only themselves, but human civilization, as well as the foundations of the universe itself; eradicating the very reality that they exist in.
THIS IS VOLUME THREE OF THIS MARVELOUS WELL WRITTEN SERIES FROM THE SAME DYNAMIC DUO RESPONSIBLE FOR THE BEST SELLING CONTINUATION OF THE DUNE SERIES. I THINK THE HELLHOLE SERIES IS A SHINING FEATHER IN THE CAPS OF BRIAN HERBERT AND KEVIN J. ANDERSON.
EVEN THOUGH THIS IS THE FINISHING VOLUME OF THE TRILOGY, I HAVE HIGH HOPES OF MORE ADVENTURES OF GENERAL ADOLPHUS AND HIS LIBERATION FIGHTERS.
IT'S AVAILABLE FROM TOR AND SHOULD BE AT YOUR FAVORITE BOOK STORE.
