Praise for The Icarus Coda:
“. . . one of the best books I’ve ever read. . . . Take the twists and turns of the best caper media you’ve ever consumed, add the brilliance of a Sherlock Holmes, the action of a Flash Gordon, and a grand finale that leaves me almost speechless. . . . [T]his is one of the best science-fiction mysteries, and one of the best science fiction series I’ve ever read.” —Upstream Reviews
Praise for The Icarus Twin:
“The Icarus Twin offers a fast-paced adventure that is every bit as exciting and entertaining as The Icarus Plot. If you are looking for a mix of action and mystery, read it.” —Ricochet
“Intrigue, aliens, and locating lost portals fuel a story replete in adventure and action.” —Midwest Book Review
Praise for The Icarus Plot:
“This is Zahn at his best—great characters and settings, great worldbuilding, great suspense, and just a ton of action and space opera fun . . . It’s also a passion project for the author, so if you enjoy Zahn, it’s not to be missed.” —Analog
“There are plenty of little things to delight the longtime Zahn reader, while also bringing [in] new fans in a way that is perfectly accessible . . . Zahn remains one of the best writers of action I have ever had the pleasure of
reading . . . The Icarus Plot is pure fun in the way that only one of the genre’s greatest yarn-weavers can do.” —Warped Factor
“Timothy Zahn is a mainstay in the field of science fiction.” —Seattle Book Review
“Anyone who has ever been interested in noir science fiction and espionage should read this. Take the espionage of John le Carre, the deduction of Sherlock Holmes, the twisty nature of The Sting, and you have The Icarus Plot.” —Upstream Reviews
Praise for Timothy Zahn:
“Zahn fans will enjoy the variety of small-unit combat scenes in the action-packed third and final Cobra Rebellion military SF adventure . . . [a] gripping series.” —Publishers Weekly
“Zahn keeps the story moving at a breakneck pace, maintaining excitement.” —Publishers Weekly
“[Conqueror’s Heritage] is another finely wrought space adventure . . . [with] social, political, and emotional complications, all of which Zahn treats with his usual skill.” —Booklist
“Zahn paints every detail [in Angelmass] with gleamy realism . . . scientific dialogue that streams with starship hardware and military trooper talk . . . immensely appealing.” —Kirkus
NEW ENTRY IN THE ICARUS SAGA FROM NEW YORK TIMES BEST-SELLING AUTHOR TIMOTHY ZAHN
For years Gregory Roarke and his Kadolian partner Selene have worked for the ultra-secret Icarus Group, hunting for the mysterious Icari teleportation portals so valued by the Commonwealth.
But their job has now come to a wrenching end. The two of them are fugitives, sought by the Commonwealth, the rival Patth, and the remnant of the ancient Ammei who once controlled the portals and who hunger for a return to those days of glory. All three groups want Selene and her unique ability to understand and deal with Icari technology.
Or is it unique?
In the shadow of an Ammei stronghold they stumble across an unfamiliar and badly confused alien named Bubloo who has the same ultrasensitive sense of smell as Selene and her fellow Kadolians. If the Ammei get hold of him, can they achieve their goal of domination without Selene?
Roarke doesn't know. But he doesn't dare take that chance.
Things are looking grim, with multiple puzzles and questions intertwined around Bubloo and the portals, and the future of the Spiral hanging in the balance.
And then, the Patth assassination squad arrives . . .
