A hard science-fiction series with a post apocalyptic fantasy feel, the Shadeward Saga is set on the imaginary planet Esurio, in orbit about the red dwarf Lacaille 9352, a real star just over 10 lightyears from Earth. The planet is tidally locked; one side always faces the star, and the other is plunged into eternal darkness. Only between the two extremes is life possible. Long ago it was colonized, but knowledge of those events has since fallen into myth and legend...

"More discoveries for the Mobilis crew. More of our burning questions finally answered! More politics and plotting from the priestesses. More action and more drama with our cast of amazingly well written characters. Drew has one again written characters that draw you in, I care what happens to these folk! Our regular cast learn more about themselves and each other. Lots of great character development in here again, lots of "Yes!" and "Wow!" moments."

"However what this book really showcases, and the saga's biggest and best feature, is Drew's remarkable ability to create characters that you really, deeply care about and who bring you along for the ride as they experience the full gamut of human emotions. Characters you love, then hate, then sympathize with, cheer, jeer, love and hate all over again!"

"This book is a worthy continuation of the previous two installments of the saga. Character development is great, they are absolutely loveable - the reader finds himself rooting for everyone to get along and solve the mysteries. The story is captivating, I found it very hard to put the book down. The world is one of my absolute favourite sci-fi-fantasy creations: the way "magic" and technology is addressed is truly believeable and realistic. Can't wait for the conclusion of the saga!"
