The Cygnus Realm has found peace. Now, spreading among the new worlds of the Unseen gates, Dash and his people are building new lives, free of war and destruction.Until one of the former Unseen planets shifts in orbit—a small thing, but worth looking into.Close to this erratic world, something incredible opens, revealing a connection to stars so distant that they have no name on the Cygnus charts.The Black Gate pulses in and out of existence, and when a massive pair of alien warheads comes through and destroys an entire orbital facility, Dash is left with no choice but to pick up the mantle of Messenger and fight once more.He must go through the gate, find out who is responsible, and eliminate the threat at any cost.But this is beyond anything he and his people have faced before... and it will take everything they have to stand against it.Experience the exciting continuation in the bestselling Messenger series from USA Today bestselling author J.N. Chaney and Terry Maggert. If you're a fan of Gundam, Macross, or Knights of Sidonia, you'll love this epic scifi thrill ride.

Peace has finally come to Dash and his followers. The Golden, their arch enemy defeated. Life is peaceful , good, they can finally relax. Wrong, a new alien enemy has surfaced called Deepers. Their organic and inorganic and have the ability to rejuvenate if wounded. They have to be totally destroyed to kill them. Their warships are the same. They are not built but they grow probably from the organic materials. They do not communicate as individuals, but as a group or mass communication. An enemy far deadlier then any group Dash has faced. An epic sc_fi thriller. Enjoyed immensely!!

Well Dash and the Cygnus Realm had a couple of years off but when a new alien threat appears from a gate and destroys a construction base, (the Deepers) or friends in the realm have to battle a different type of technology in a different way.
A fun book to continue the Messenger series.

Another stellar installment of the Dash kicks ass along with his trusty Cygnus Realm team of course. I didn't want it to end and you guys came through. Kudos.I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to read about mechs and cool battles.

An exciting continuation of an excellent series.

After thinking the Messenger series was finished, it is back and worth the wait. There is plenty of action with all of the characters we got to enjoy over the last 10 books and we get to meet new ones. I can't wait to see what happens next.

I absolutely loved this series!!! Want more please!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 2, 2021

Have always been an avid reader - but at 70 I decided to try something new. So - I hesitantly tried out Space fiction.
Since then I must have read some 500 books - many if them series - and I love them. So - The Messenger caught my eye, I got the first books as an omnibus - and having devoured them I went through the rest" like a hot knife through butter"! I fell in love with Dash, Leira, Connover, Victor and Amy. And all the other characters they met along the way. Don't want to say too much about the individual plots, but battle scenes are intense, bloody and exciting, and the way the story develops and the characters expand really brings it all to life. If you want "Hard science fiction" this may not excite you the way it did me - but for me (now 76) it was rollocking good read. I really enjoyed all of it, and was really sorry when I finished the last book. More please!!
