Floreina is a cybernetically enhanced young woman with a vibrant future in the Amarrian Empire, a decorated turret commander and slave overseer aboard an Abaddon warship. But after a cruel “accident” and the repeated abuse of slaves, Floreina risks everything in a defiant act of mutiny.
Along the way, she learns that commandeering a battleship takes more than just artificially focused cunning, automated adrenaline injections, and simple, old-fashioned brutality. For her plan to succeed, Floreina must befriend a Minmatar slave.
But plans don’t always go as planned… And as the two fight for their lives, Floreina must find a way to reconcile their friendship with the racism that drives her career.
This book is set in the world of EVE Online scifi MMORPG.

Against a Rock Reviews
-
Not too much in the EVE Universe, but enough to give one some extra depth within the story. A bit heavy on the combat side (surprisingy H2H, instead of space ships) for my taste.
Enjoyed the look into Amarrian beliefs and customs (their brand of slavery especially), as well as the ways in which an Amarrian battleship (an Apocalypse, no less) and its crew works.
Could do with a bit more editing, maybe?
Enjoyed it none the less.
