THE STORY
Proud Lamertine. Fierce Helvintr. Cunning Radrexxus.
Since the halcyon days of the Great Crusade, these noble rogue trader dynasties have plied the void in the Emperor’s name, answering to whomsoever sits as the king of the Davamir Compact. There has been profit and adventure and abundance in these times… Yet now the galaxy is changed, divided by the birth of the Great Rift. As plans are drawn up for the most immense crusade imaginable, the Emperor’s reborn son demands that the Compact seek a way across the Rift.
When tragedy and betrayal threaten all their endeavours, it is the Lamertine heir, Erastus, who must rise to the fore – to guide the disparate forces of the Compact in service to their sacred mission, to avenge the wounds done to them by hidden hands, and to reveal the darkest secrets threatening the Imperium’s dreams of unity…

Grim Dark Indeed
What I liked - I liked the grim-dark feel of the story, as the main characters struggle to maneuver through the politics and betrayals. House Helvintr is fantastic, and I would love to see a book about Katla and Astrid’s lives prior to this book. The uniqueness of their House was a refreshing change from the usual Imperial lifestyles.
What I didn’t like - The main character Erastus. A whining kid who seems to be completely out of his depth in every scenario, never playing into his past experiences, and throws impotent insults at everyone whenever he loses, while never really managing to do anything unless the plot requires it.
