About this ebook

 The Empire had fallen, and the Imperial Navy was disbanded leaving James with nothing but his nightmares to remind him of the role he once played in The Great War. James must now face his new life in a new era where science and technology must share the stage with sorcery and wizardry, and a new ever-present shadow of evil lurks over the remnants of the once great Empire. A new generation of warriors will be needed to fight this battle. James is determined to be part of that new generation and maybe find freedom from the nightmares that control his life.

Ratings and reviews

3 1/2 stars, I enjoyed it, the only thing that bothered me was the switching of characters suddenly in new chapter that took several seconds to adjust to their storyline.

Still trying to figure out why I'm reading these books, I just can't get into this magic and sci fi nonsense

A very enjoyable read. Is not common to get wizards in Sci Fi but it works. I Look forward to next book
