The Enemy of My Enemy . . .
Of the once innumerable battle clans of the Posleen only a handful survive. And that on the sufferance of a group of despised Indowy and Himmit. Plucked from the maelstrom on Earth they are cast out into the eternal blackness of the stars with only a slighltly insane Indowy and a computer virus to guide them.
What follows is a trail of tears and remembrance as the Posleen retrace the footsteps of their ancestors in a search for their homeworld. A search to determine if the Posleen posess the one thing no Human would give them credit for: A soul.
Returned to their beginnings, the question remains: Is there a new path for the Tular Posleen?

Product ReviewHas a satisfying ending, rather than a cliffhanger. Some but not much action. I thought it was a good read and worth six bucks for those interested in more info on the Aldenta's influence on the Posleen and the origins of the Posleen. Picks up on a thread started at the end of "Hell's Faire" where the Indowy Aelool makes an offer to the defeated Posleen commander Tulo'stenaloor. The offer leads to the escape of Tulo'stenaloor with a small band of Posleen from Earth, and sets up a 20 year odyssey in search of a home planet and the origins of the Posleen. Trailing the searchers is the USS Salem, remodeled into a spacecraft, and its feisty AI Sally.

Product ReviewAgain, as said previously by others, this story does not "fit" the tone and direction that had been setup by the previous releases.
