Who is the merciless enemy that threatens to wipe out the living ships – Angus’s people?
It’s clear now: the Neuronomes are not attacking the Confederation, but rather are the victims of a mysterious aggressor, and they explode when they die. They did, however, take up positions near large population centres, threatening to take thousands of lives with them when they go in order to pressure Confederate authorities – who had once massacred them – into helping them.
Unsurprisingly, Caleb, Mezoke and Angus are chosen to go to the Neuronomes’ home planet and neutralise the unknown threat.
I am NOT going to write much. Runberg is a superb writer and this new volume proves that.
Pelle is an incredible artist and I have seen his work as he pencilled/inked -I even have an original sketch in one of my Orbital books. The art in this book is incredible and you have to keep going back to look at it a few times (I did). There aren't any words I can use to adequately describe Pelle's art here.
For me, Orbital has always been a series I will go back to. And guess what...the end to this story...wow. No spoilers but....wow.
100% recommended every bloody time!
