Product Description:
In this exciting space adventure, fourteen-year-old Jack Morgan and Draycos, a poet/warrior K'da dragon who can hide himself as a tattoo on Jack's back, have their backs to the wall. Brought together by a twist of fate, these two have been through a lot of scrapes, risking death and imprisonment on worlds far and wide, seeking justice for Jack and information that might save Draycos's people from a genocidal ambush. But now, Neverlin, the man who killed Jack's parents and destroyed the scout fleet of which Draycos was the sole survivor, is about to ambush millions of K'da refugees, and kill them with a Death weapon that kills any living being within its range. To prevent Neverlin from eradicating the K'da race, Jack and Draycos must somehow disable the Death.

But for Jack and Draycos, things never seem to go the way they should. When Jack's friend Alison is captured, Jack gives himself up to keep her from being harmed. Neverlin, with Jack and Draycos as his prisoners, holds all the cards. But desperate times call for desperate measures, as time is running out, not just for our young heroes, but also for the millions of K'da who face annihilation, and resourceful Jack and his remarkable ally will fine a way . . . or die trying.
 
A powerful, thrilling conclusion to this terrific Young Adult six-book series. Fun for readers 10 and older.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great book
This may be the best of the series. It winds up the adventure well. The whole series is good. You have to hand it to Timothy Zahn, he writes a clever plot and lets you like the characters. By the way, it is very appropriate for adolescent readers -- I certainly want my five kids, 10yrs-16yrs, to read it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Another in a decent series
This entire series is vetted as for "young readers" and while it is not a complex, deep philosophical book it kept my interest through out and I am 54 so this is one I have shared with my thirteen year old and we have been equally satisfied with it.

Me because it was entertaining enough and not in anyway condenscending in tone and to my thirteen year old as the main character is fourteen. LOL.

I recommend the entire series.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good ending
The series comes to a close in this one with all the plot-lines coming together quite nicely, and a good ending.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A great end to a great series
Timothy Zahn has done a great job here in writing a story that is exciting and fun to read but also really completes the series in a believable way. This series is not perfect with perhaps the most glaring problem being the believability of two 14 year olds being able and allowed to have so much impact on the fates of several races and important individuals, but then again this is written for the young adult market. All of the questions raised before (i.e. Who really is Allison working for?, Why do the Valahgua really care about chasing the K'da clear across the galaxy?, Who really killed Jack's parents?, etc... ) are finally answered. I also liked the fact that the worldview of the story (as Draycos the K'da would say, that doing what is right is more important than doing what is easy), is a refreshingly positive. Most importantly, Zahn has written another book with characters we really care about and a story ... Read More
