"Jane Kamali is an agent for the Justified. Her mission: to recruit children with miraculous gifts in the hope that they might prevent the Pulse from once again sending countless worlds back to the dark ages. Hot on her trail is the Pax--a collection of fascist zealots who believe they are the rightful rulers of the galaxy and who remain untouched by the Pulse. Now Jane, a handful of comrades from her past, and a telekinetic girl called Esa must fight their way through a galaxy full of dangerous conflicts, remnants of ancient technology, and other hidden dangers. And that's just the beginning..."--Amazon.… (mehr)

Probably closer to a 3.5 but I did enjoy reading it. There is nothing new here and it reads like an updated old fashioned space opera. There were a few plot points that made my brain ache but I liked it enough that I know I am going to read the 2nd book. ( )

Pretty good space opera. A bit of a quibble that some of the very big issues of the story weren't resolved, or at least had some progress made. But the whole book had one big story arc and that was completed. I will be buying and reading others in this series. ( )

I don't normally log DNFs here but this book still has enough charm to warrant a look, if you're up for it. The action is genuinely fun and riveting. And there's lots of it! Yeah, it's basically Star Wars. When the action kicks in, it's well written, clearly staged and exciting.

So what drags the book down? Dialogue. Ugh. The dialogue in this thing is terrible. Contrived characterisation and clunky exposition. That's not how people talk. I tried my best to shrug it off, but—sorry Drew Williams—I couldn't stomach it. There's definitely fun to be had here but I crumbled to a DNF about half way through. ( )

I have a hard time of regarding this as anything other than a workmanlike adventure story but since that was what the author was going for who am I to criticize. What I do find myself being critical of is the whole phenomena of "the pulse," which scrambled galactic civilization in this milieu; its impact seemed more and more arbitrary as I got into the book and it seems to be basically Williams' way of stacking the deck in terms of the story he wants to tell.
