Even worse is the number of ships that were lost mid-jump due to her actions. I knew that the aftermath of Sirantha's actions at the end of the previous book were going to be catastrophic and I wasn't wrong, changing the Grimspace beacons has made interstellar travel practically impossible to anyone but Jax and until she trains a new wave of Jumpers the entire galaxy is going to pay the price for her actions. Anyway, let's focus on Aftermath for now and leave fears of Endgame until this review is finished!

On one hand I want to know how it ends but on the other I'm pretty nervous because I'm not sure I like where the series is going. It's taken me a long time to write a review of Aftermath, probably because I still can't quite decide what I think of everything that happened in it and I'm kind of torn at this point over whether I even want to read the final book in the series.

The cost of her actions: the destruction of modern interstellar travel - and the lives of six hundred Conglomerate soldiers.Īccused of dereliction of duty, desertion, mass murder, and high treason, Sirantha is on trial for her life. ĭuring the war against murderous, flesh-eating aliens, Sirantha went AWOL and shifted grimspace beacons to keep the enemy from invading humanity's homeworld. It's a character trait that has gotten her into - and out of - hot water time and time again, but now she's caused one of the most horrific events in military history. But it's also in her genetic makeup to go it alone. Sirantha Jax has the right genes - ones that enable her to 'jump' faster-than-light ships through grimspace.
