"Werne's storytelling technique ... deftly balances interstellar politics with an amalgam of end-to-end action and Sherlock Holmes-styled sleuthing. The conversations between the characters are the icing on the cake as Werne displays an innate ability to extract comedic instances from even the most serious-sounding situation." - Readers Favorite
