Aurora's End (The Aurora Cycle)

Product Information

Emerald City is a station above a gas giant, named for the colour of the chlorine gas storm beneath it. TM has neither pork nor apple in it, and that a meal like the Beef "Stew"-n-Mash TM would be considered an act of war in some cultures. The authors also have a great sense of humour, with many fun jokes and observations that made me laugh multiple times, especially around the fun time-loop storyline.

Aurora’s End was an outstanding novel that perfectly wrapped up this excellent trilogy with fun, flair, and exceptional action. Last of His Kind: The Great Ultrasaur of Abraaxis IV is the last member of its species, having eaten all the others, and the pride of Casseldon Bianchi's menagerie. This is an intentional effect of the Eshvaren deliberately seeding the galaxy with proto-lifeforms in their own image.Not only do these multiple perspectives help to present a rich and complex character driven narrative but it also helps the reader to really get into the heads of the main characters.

Villainous Rescue: Squad 312 manages to evade the Bellerophon and land on Octavia III when Bianchi arrives in pursuit of them, wanting to retrieve his stolen property, resulting in a fight between the two forces that ends in the destruction of both, save for a shuttle from the Bellerophon carrying Princeps. The Assimilator: The Ra'haam is capable of infecting members of sapient species to become agents of itself, but only if those individuals stray onto one of the 22 planets it's incubating on. She starts the second book willing to murder almost all of Squad 312, but by the end, she is an ally to Tyler, at least, who respects his bravery and tactical smarts and appears to feel some level of attraction to him.All of these character arcs are really impressive, and you will be moved by everything these fantastic heroes go through, especially as not all of them will come out of it in one piece. Younger readers will deeply appreciate the use of multiple complex teenage characters kicking ass and saving the world, and I think that the authors did a good job of capturing the teenage mindset in their various protagonists. If I had to choose a favourite, it would be the storyline set in the past, mainly because I loved the fun opportunities that only a time-loop story can present.
