Kashi, Mercy’s True gold commander, recommends using force to evacuate them, but Mercy believes they’ll come around. The plot kind of dabbles in the atmosphere of 1968 when women’s rights actions were being brought to the streets. Lady Carise toys between honoring her sacred vow to Leia and using it as weapon to damage her political rival's credibility.

One of the stricken Amaxine fighters crashes into the sea, triggering a massive explosion which destroys the underwater spaceport and the Amaxine base; wiping out all evidence of the paramilitary group and Rinnrivin's financial dealings. London doesn’t believe her – he saw the Moonlight Bridge and knows she’d have tossed herself to the Phoenix if she could. Despite the political fallout from Leia's scandal, Joph and Greer elect to remain loyal to the Senator and confirm they are still keen on participating in the mission to Sibensko.The conversation goes downhill as his parents insist they should fight Heaven’s Glory and display their own ignorance of the power of Golds, and they talk over London. If you loved the movie Ready or Not or Jessica Knoll’s psychological thriller Luckiest Girl Alive, you’ll love Catherine Steadman’s THE FAMILY GAME.

Leia then warns the Senate that the Amaxine warriors were preparing for a a full-scale military assault on the New Republic and urges her fellow Senators to be on their guard. The more Joan investigates, and the more she bucks against the life being pushed on her, the more sinister the seemingly constant dinner parties become, and the feelings that she’s being watched intensify. London believes it to be locked away and buried here – and given that his arm has been strained and cracked form Consuming the Titan, he needs more hunger madra weapons to rebuild it.It’s not as grand as he remembers, though he’s glad that Elder Whisper’s tower is as tall as he remembers. They say she shouldn’t get any worse, so she chooses to continue rather than head back to the Windfall.

Brian McAuley’s CURSE OF THE REAPER is a thriller tailor-made for, as his dedication so aptly puts it, the “Halloween people. London breaks contact and tells Dross that the Titan is tired and wants to leave – they CAN drive it out.He tells them that what they’ve been sensing is the Dreadgod, and that they will all die when it arrives if they do not evacuate on the Akura cloudships. Suspicious that the kidnapping masks a far more nefarious plot, Gray must confront a shadowy cabal which has been manipulating events throughout history…and now challenges the current presidency. He hears John shouting his name from outside, and looks out the window to see Mina tied to a tree, as Private Smith was once tied to a wagon wheel. Later, Joph Seastriker and his fellow starfighter pilots including Greer and Temmin Wexley watched a starfighter acrobatic competition near the Senate building.
