A series milestone as we welcome the twentieth amazing entry in the nationally best-selling Liaden Universe® series.
The luck runs rough around Theo Waitley. Not only are people trying to kill her and capture the self-aware intelligent ship Bechimo to whom Theo is bonded, they’re also trying to arrest her crew members, and throw the dignity of an important passenger, the duly-constituted norbear ambassador Hevelin, into question.
No wonder Theo and her crew felt the need of a break, and retired to what Bechimo refers to as "safe space." Unfortunately, safe space may not be so safe, anymore. It seems that things are leaking through from another universe, and another time. In fact, whole spaceships are coming through. One of those ships is a blasted battleship seemingly fleeing a long-lost war. What’s more, its crew may be members of Theo’s ancient ancestral line—her relatives. It’s certain that they are in dire need of help. Theo has a choice to make. It seems that Bechimo’s “safe space” is about to become deadly perilous.

Agree with Stephen. Alliance of equals was great. It establish three story lines of which only Theo story line was advanced. The book also ended abruptly leaving the reader with a sense of disappointment. I would modify old expression in show business of "always leave them wanting more" to include "but don't leave them staving". I would rate this excellent if I could have bought the next book in the series immediately. Instead I guess I have to wait a year.
So if you like the series, buy the book but wait until the next one is available.
