Dominion's Reach - Softcover

This is the third book in Diann Thornely's Unified Worlds saga (Ganwold's Child, Echoes of Issel), a serviceable military science fiction series from one of the genre's newer writers. It opens with series protagonist Admiral Lujan Serege in a hospital bed, almost fully paralyzed and comatose after taking the brunt of a terrorist bomb. At his side are his wife Darcie Dartmuth and their son, Tristan. Cut off from command and virtually isolated from the world, Lujan must work not only to heal his terribly wounded body and mind, but also to stop the plotting of his nemesis, Seulemont Remarq.

"In the past, when I considered important women writers of military science fiction, three names have stood out most prominently: C.J. Cherryh, Lois McMaster Bujold, and Elizabeth Moon. Now I will add Diann Thronley to my list. With each novel, it becomes more and more evident just how important she has become to this field." --Dave Wolverton

"A bright new talent." --Roger Zelazny
