Product Description:
The author of 32 national bestsellers delivers the fourth book in a breathtaking, galaxy-spanning space opera series. As the war escalates, the various civilizations across the Spiral Arm crack from the strain. Focused intently on the outside alien foe, leaders across the galaxy are failing to hold their nations together. Amid the mounting tensions, empires begin to crumble. In despair at his powerlessness to keep his human race alive, Chairman Basil Wenceslas grows increasingly irrational and tyrannical. Unable to effectively defend against the alien enemy, he blames the unruly colonies and independent human nations around the galaxy and punishes them with violence. Meanwhile, the leader of the Ildirans, Jora'h, flounders under a massive rebellion. For the first time in memory, Ildiran has taken up arms against Ildiran, and feeling every death through their psychic network, Jora'h suffers at the slaughter of his people. Every planet and colony across the spiral arm, human or alien, feels the devastation. No one is safe.

- on the whole, a fantastic space opera
The entire sequence of the Saga of the Seven Suns is a great rollicking operatic drama with tremendous depth. Well worth getting stuck into. There are a lot of hours in it - perfect for distance running, gardening, long bouts of housework!

- I enjoy the series more and more
The initial book in the series spends almost too much time "taking off", as you are introduced to the complex vastness of characters and history of Anderson's universe; but now that I'm well into the story and many of the plotlines are intersecting, I'm finding each sequel more enjoyable. The complexity is a very positive characteristic of the series now.

Much is revealed in this fourth book, but yet there's still so much more for which I'm dying to find out what's next. Saga of the Seven Suns definitely rates as one of my top five far-future sci-fi series.

- Engrossing Story
Kevin J Anderson is a great writer. This series is so engrossing due to the multiple sub plots and developed characters. I couldn't put it down and I am impatient for the next installment to arrive! His attention to detail, imagery and character development puts you right in the story sometimes so much so that I wonder what it would be like as a movie and who would play some of the key characters... Good reading!

- The Tide Turns
Scattered Suns (2005) is the fourth SF novel in the Saga of Seven Suns series, following Horizon Storms. In the previous volume, Bill Stanna stole a Roamer scout ship and fled to the outer Osquivel system; Zhett Kellum had the stolen ship retrieved after the emergency beacon came on and brought back the body to the other EDF prisoners. Admiral Lev Stromo destroyed Rendezvous and imprisoned the surviving Roamers.

Kotto Okiah found a way to open the hydrogue ship and his Analytical compy GU stated that the technology therein was very similar to that of Klikiss robots. King Peter learned that Prince Daniel was exceedingly uncooperative and Queen Estarra discovers that she is pregnant. On Theroc, Celli found a wooden tree figure shaped like her brother Beneto growing in the Worldforest and it soon became animated.

In this novel, Chairman Basil Wenceslas tells King Peter and Queen Estarra ... Read More
