The stunning conclusion to the trilogy that began with Ancillary Justice the only novel ever
to win the Hugo Nebula and Arthur C. Clarke Awards. For a moment things seemed to be under
control for Breq the soldier who used to be a warship. Then a search of Athoek Station's slums
turns up someone who shouldn't exist and a messenger from the mysterious Presger empire arrives
as does Breq's old enemy the divided heavily armed and possibly insane Anaander Mianaai -
ruler of an empire at war with itself. Breq could flee with her ship and crew but that would
leave the people of Athoek in terrible danger. Breq has a desperate plan. The odds aren't good
but that's never stopped her before. Praise for this series: 'Awe-inspiring' Guardian 'Engaging
