Brandon vlith-Arkad, heir to the Phoenix Throne, along with the Rifter pirate crew of the Telvarna, seeks a means of rescuing Brandon's father, Gelasaar, who is fighting his own battle with his former fosterling, Anaris.
This is a book that I have put off reading for years. After fully enjoying the first 2 books in the series, I really didn't believe that the authors were going to be able to keep up the suspense and intrique of the first 2 novels, but I was wrong. This book is a very satisfying read for those that like their science fiction really well thought out and with awesome character development. I would say that Smith and Trowbridge on this project are like the Guy Gavriel Kay of Science Fiction. If you can find copies of these books, grab them!

Nobody does high society intrigue like these guys do. Incredibly complicated, good sf values, humor, action, everything is there. The publishers ought to get more from these authors.
