Imperium Restored

A Novel of the Praxis

By: Walter Jon Williams

Narrated by: Victor Bevine

“Interstellar adventure has a new king, and his name is Walter Jon Williams.” —George R.R. Martin

Blending fast-paced military science fiction and space opera, the third and final volume in a dynamic trilogy from the New York Times bestselling author of The Praxis, set in the universe of his popular and critically acclaimed Dread Empire’s Fall series, comes a tale of blood, courage, adventure, and battle in which the fate of an empire rests in the hands of two lovers.

Shattered Victory

Star-crossed lovers Gareth Martinez and Caroline Sula have decisively beaten the forces of the corrupt Zanshaa government. It seems all there’s left to do is to travel to the capital of Zanshaa to reunite the empire under the banner of the Restoration. Before they can sweep up the pieces, though, it’s revealed that any advance would spring an enemy trap. To make things worse, their opponents have more resources than Martinez and Sula could have imagined, and a superior force is now aimed at the heart of the Restoration.

Shattered Love

But before Martinez and Sula can contend with the gathering enemy forces, a surprising act of violence on Sula’s part threatens their relationship—and damages their trust. Hurt and confused, Martinez sends Sula into exile while he tries to recover from his broken heart. Somehow, these two lovers must repair their relationship in order to defeat this new enemy threat... especially when more than love is at stake.

Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

The narrator did a much better job on book 6 than 5

I guess the narrator saw all the negative comments and tried to learn to modulate his voice a little.

As for the story, the author spent about the last twenty percent of the book wrapping up all of the characters. He did a great job. few authors do well at ending a series but this one took the effort and pages to do it excellently!

The end?

Love this series. This left some room for more, but this could serve to end.

Great finale to this series

Solid story telling from beginning to the end. Looking forward to more in the future

Great story.

Great story in a solid series. Meh performance after book 3 with a new narrator.
