Product Description
In the Ichidijtn Universe, the League and its ruthless assassins continue to keep rule. But at what cost? Welcome back to the future. . .and a whole new world. Devyn Kell has spent his life in service to the League until he learns of the double dealing and backstabbing that is costing innocent people their lives. Refusing to play games, he becomes a Runner - someone who makes sure planets get the weapons, medicine and supplies they need to survive. May the gods have mercy on any who get in his way, because he definitely won't. Alix Gerran is a woman on the run from a past she can't escape. Signing on to work for Devyn as a System's Engineer, she finds a cause she can fight for - and a man she can respect. But as Alix's past catches up to her, and Devyn's old enemies turn lethal, they have to fight together. . . or fall, alone.

Reviews:

Don (USA: NV) (2010/07/09):
OK-I'm back to loving the series. [I had some trouble with the heroine in book 2 - but she's the hero's mom in this one and has improved with age.]

Devyn is the son of Sin and Shahara from Born of Fire and like his father is doctor and a world saver. The most inexplicable point for me was here - why was he working for the League at the start of the book? Didn't Mom, Dad, and Uncle Nykarian make clear to him that protecting the innocent is WAY down on the League's To-Do list? Of course, some of Nykarian's kids take nthe League Assassin route too...

Alix is the tortured heroine who is sent out to bring him down. She figures out early on that he is not the bad guy he's been painted, but what's a girl with a mom and younger sister being held captive by Very Bad People to do?

It has action, romance, humor, and all the characters were entertaining along with some interesting twists and bit parts for the players and some of the children from the first two books. What's not to love?

Definitely read in order...
