Summary
Owen Deathstalker, last of the infamous warrior Clan, always considered himself more of a writer than a fighter, preferring his history books to making any actual history with a sword. But books won't protect him from Her Imperial Majesty Lionstone XIV, who just outlawed and condemned Owen to death, without any explanation, reason, or warning. No wonder she's called the Iron Bitch.
Now, on the run from Imperial starcruisers, shady mercenaries, and just about everyone else in the Empire, Owen's options are limited. Though the name Deathstalker still commands respect in certain quarters, out on the Rim, Owen is lucky he can cobble together a makeshift team of castoffs, including an ex-pirate, a cyborg, and a bounty hunter. But allies won't be enough to save him.
If he's to live, Owen can either run forever...or take down the corrupt Empire. To do that, he'll need the fabled Darkvoid Device - an artifact dating back to the first Deathstalker and perhaps the only weapon powerful enough to help this ragtag rebellion win. The time has come for Owen to finally embrace his Deathstalker heritage...and all the blood and death that go along with it.

An old friend
Having read all these books more than a few years ago I was delighted to hear it again. It was well read with a similar atmosphere to what I envisioned from when I read them.

Pure nostalgia
I read this as a teenager and loved it. It was fun to read it as an adult, it’s a crazy, action packed space opera for which you have to leave your disbelief at the door and enjoy the ride.

Brilliant Stuff
I really enjoyed the narrator's voice. His voice fits perfectly with the style of the story, which I've enjoyed for years. Lovely stuff!

Pulp comicbook Space Opera at its best
in the footsteps of Flash Gordon, Quatermas and its like, is a sprawling story of high adventure against a cruel empire/aliens/rouge AIs and corrupt aristocratic houses
This is my 5th read/listen through on this series the scope is huge and a little tongue in cheek, it's not high-brow, it's Pulp-Scifi and all the better for it 😀
